Please do not read this to the students.  This is a description for teachers, about the big ideas and key understanding that students should take away after completing this task.\nBig Ideas and Key Understandings\nPeople do not always view a situation the same way. How a person views a situation can influence how they handle or respond to it.\nSynopsis\nMrs. LaRue sends her dog, Ike, to obedience school because of a series of inappropriate behaviors that he displays toward Ms. LaRue, the neighbors, and other animals. Ike feels he has been wrongly sent to the school and writes letters to explain his perspective on what actually happened in each situation, trying to persuade Ms. LaRue to come and get him. By the end of the story Mrs. LaRue has changed more than Ike.\nRead entire main selection text, keeping in mind the Big Ideas and Key Understandings.\nRe-read the main selection text while noting the stopping points for the Text Dependent Questions and teaching Vocabulary.\nDuring Teaching\nStudents read the entire main selection text independently.\nTeacher reads the main selection text aloud with students following along. (Depending on how complex the text is and the amount of support needed by students, the teacher may choose to reverse the order of steps 1 and 2.)\nStudents and teacher re-read the text while stopping to respond to and discussthe questions and returning to the text.  A variety of methods can be used to structure the reading and discussion (i.e.:  whole class discussion, think-pair-share, independent written response, group work, etc.)\nText Dependent Questions\nText-dependent Questions\nEvidence-based Answers\nAs the author Mark Teague begins this story, how does he introduce the main characters to the readers? Cite evidence from the text and illustrations. (Pg. 415)\nMr. Teague writes a newspaper article to introduce Mrs. LaRue and Ike to the readers.  He tells the readers who Ike is and why he was sent to obedience school.  The illustration shows us a newspaper article with Ike’s picture.  The newspaper is called The Snort City Register/Gazette and is dated September 30th.\nWhat school does Mrs. LaRue send Ike to and what are her reasons for sending him? (Pg. 415)\nMrs. LaRue sends Ike to The Igor Brotweiler Canine Academy.  She says “he’s quite spoiled.”\nSteals food off of the counter\nChases the neighbor’s cats\nHowls and wakes the neighbor\nPulled her down and tore her coat\nA fantasy is a story about characters and settings that could not exist in real life.  Reread and observe the illustrations on pages 416 and 417.  What on these pages show evidence that this is a fantasy?\nIke types a letter\nDogs can’t type letters\nIke puts a letter in the mailbox.\nDogs can’t use mailboxes.\nDogs locked inside the truck with jail hats on.\nDogs wouldn’t wear jail hats.\n“Warning! Prisoners on Board”\nA dog school’s truck would not say that on it.\nReread the next few letters on pages 419-424 from Ike.  How does Ike defend himself against Mrs. LaRue’s reasons for sending him to obedience school?\nSteals the food\nPg. 419 - Mrs. LaRue could have discussed it with him and he would not have eaten the pie.\nChases the cats\nPg. 420 - “They are hardly …little angels” Ike says he did not know they were on the fire escape.\nHowling\nPg. 424 – Ike says he wasn’t howling very loudly.  The neighbors are always waking him up in the middle of the day with their loud vacuuming.\nPulling her down…\nPg. 422 – Ike says he save Mrs. LaRue from being hit by the truck.\nWhat evidence from the text can you use to conclude that Ike doesn’t want to be at obedience school?\nPg. 417 – He compares the school to a prison.\nPg. 419 – He i","cbCain9HwSdFUCqA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain9HwSdFUCqA","doc",111616,13,"English","# Teacher Instructions\n## Before Teaching\n## During Teaching\n# Text Dependent Questions","[{\"question\":\"How does the lesson plan introduce the big idea and key understanding for the story?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes that people do not always view a situation the same way, and that a person’s view can influence how they handle or respond to it.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the synopsis of why Mrs. LaRue sends Ike to obedience school?\",\"answer\":\"Mrs. LaRue sends Ike due to inappropriate behaviors toward her, the neighbors, and other animals.
