FREE LESSON: Hero Stories with Teacher Mellie: Lesson 6: Rachel Carson
Lesson 5: Rachel Carson
Teacher: Mellie Lonnemann
Length: 41:27
Welcome back to our Heroes block! Let’s learn about a new hero named Rachel Carson. We’ll start with a morning verse to help us get focused. Next, we’ll do some movement activities while we recite our first verse called Brave and True and our second verse called I’m a Knight, both heroic poems that will put us in the mindset of the people we’ll be learning so much about. After this, we’ll review our hero from the previous lesson, John Muir, and we’ll come up with some vocabulary words to describe him. We’ll use these words to practice writing and sentence structure on the back of our drawing of him. Next, we’ll review our -igh and -y words before we do our last movement activity. After that, we’ll get into the big portion of our lesson where we’ll hear the story of Rachel Carson, a writer and marine biologist. After the excitement of her true tale, we’ll wind things down by making a drawing our hero of the day and summarizing what we learned about her in our main lesson book.
