3 Lesson 9 Unit Learning Objectives Social Studies: Students will learn the significant financial and material military aspects and human costs of World War II in the Pacific. McREL United States History, 25.2, Level II Nonfiction Reading: Students will determine the main idea and supporting details of the text. Nonfiction Writing: Students will create acrostic poems to help them better understand both the vocabulary words and the text. Materials All four audio CDs Text of the rap (rap09.pdf) Electronic copies of the leveled text images to project Copies of the leveled text cards (card09.pdf) Copies of the student reproducibles (pages ) Copies of the Map Activity Student Response Sheet (page 134) (optional) Interactive whiteboard file (filename: TCM 20th Century) (optional) Maps Scissors Highlighters Lesson Overview Students will learn the vocabulary words through a chart-and-match activity. Students will read leveled texts with partners. Students will complete a graphic organizer to determine the main idea and supporting details from the text. Jigsaw groups will then share their completed graphic organizer information. Students will write acrostic poems using vocabulary words and information from the text. As an assessment, students will answer leveled questions. A multiple-choice quiz is also provided. Interactive whiteboard files available for this lesson include the rap, vocabulary words, and the three graphic organizers. Additionally, there is a Map Activity in which students will place flags on the correct locations on a map and then answer questions about World War II in the Pacific. Vocabulary Words and Concepts Allies nations that fought against the Axis powers during World War II atomic bomb a destructive bomb that gets its power from nuclear energy Axis powers nations that fought against the Allies during World War II reinforcements more soldiers or equipment sent to help in a battle surrender to give up control, often to an enemy during war Teacher Created Materials #13088 (i4448) Leveled Texts: The 20th Century 125

4 #13088 Leveled Texts: 20th Century Teacher Created Materials World War II in the Pacific Lesson Plan Introducing the Content 1. To get students motivated, begin by playing the World War II in the Pacific rap (Track 17) from any one of the four audio CDs. You can display the PDF of the words (rap09.pdf) using a projector, or copy and distribute the text so that students can read or sing along with the rap. Have students think about the topics that may be covered in this lesson. Allow students to briefly share their predictions with the class. Dictionary 2. Display the vocabulary words so students can see them. Then discuss the definition of each word. Divide students into small, heterogeneous groups. Ask each group to create a three-column grid labeled with the following headings: Word, Definition, and Example. They will then write one vocabulary word in each row in the Word column. Have students write a definition for the word in the next column and then give an example of the word in the last column. After the groups have completed their charts, have them cut apart the rows and columns. Tell students to mix up the words, definitions, and examples. Then have the groups trade their pieces with another group and see if they can reassemble the chart. 3. When students have a good understanding of the vocabulary words, display the images found in the text. These images are available on the Teacher Resource CD (pearl.jpg; bomb.jpg). Ask students if they know the context of these images. If possible, display maps of the Pacific and explain where each of these images were taken. Discuss the location of the Pacific arena versus the locations where the war was fought in Europe so that students can better visualize World War II in the Pacific. Help students identify China, the Philippines, Japan, Iwo Jima, and Hawaii. World War II in the Pacific Japan invaded China in The United States did not like this. U.S. President Roosevelt spoke up. He said that he would not sell Japan oil or steel. Japan needed these things to fight the war. Japan wanted to take over other nations in East Asia to get the oil. So, President Roosevelt put bomber planes in the Philippines to protect these nations. The Philippines are islands. They are between Japan and the nations with the oil. The president sent ships, too. He had them go to Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor is in Hawaii. These actions upset the Japanese. Surprise Attack! World War II in the Pacific Japan attacked China in The United States did not like this.

5 Lesson Plan Reading the Text 1. Distribute copies of the appropriate leveled text to your students based on their reading abilities. The cards are differentiated with leveled texts written at various grade levels. 6.6 grade level 4.5 grade level 3.0 grade level 2.0 grade level 2. As a class, discuss the difference between the main idea of a text and the supporting details. Model this for students on the board. Tell students that they will be identifying the main idea and supporting details in the text that they will be reading. 3. Place students with partners who have the same leveled text, and have them read the text together. You may wish to play the audio of the text available on the audio CD (Track 18). Be sure to match the shape on the text to the shape on the audio CD. 4. Distribute copies of the World War II in the Pacific Graphic Organizer (pages ) to students. Give above-grade-level students the triangle sheets, on-grade-level students the square sheets, and below-grade-level students the circle sheets. Have students review the directions. 5. Instruct students to read the text again and fill in their graphic organizers as they read. Encourage students to pause as they read to discuss the important details with their partners. Once the graphic organizers are completed, mix up the student groups into heterogeneous jigsaw groups. Have students share their main ideas and supporting details with their new groups. English Language Learners Graphic Organizer Connection Meet with your English language learners to read through the text the second time and to fill out the graphic organizers together. Explain the difference between main ideas and supporting details again. Help students highlight the main ideas and supporting details in the text and then record them on their graphic organizers.

Play the World War II in the Pacific rap (Track 17) again as a review. 2. Ask students to use both their vocabulary words and information from their graphic organizers to write acrostic poems. They should include at least three of the vocabulary words in their poems. Suggest using these key terms as the vertical word for their poems: Pacific, Iwo Jima, Japan, Allies, Midway, and Hiroshima. Remind students that this is a serious and somber topic and they should be respectful and mature when choosing words and phrases for their poems. Allow students to share their poems in small groups. 3. For an assessment, cut apart and distribute the World War II in the Pacific Assessment Questions (page 132). These are leveled questions. Give above-grade-level students the triangle questions, on-grade-level students the square questions, and below-grade-level students the circle questions. 4. A multiple-choice quiz is provided for further assessment (page 133). Interactive Whiteboard Activity Map Activity (Literacy skill: Prior knowledge and making connections) This activity is available in the interactive whiteboard file on the Teacher Resource CD (filename: TCM 20th Century). Choose the World War II in the Pacific lesson. Then select the activity. In this activity, students will make connections between the location of Pearl Harbor and Iwo Jima and the events that occurred there by placing flags on the correct locations on the map. Then students will touch or click on the flags to learn more about the people who lived there. Finally, they will answer a question by choosing between two images. This can be done as a whole-class activity, small-group activity, or individual activity. Have students record their answers on the Map Activity Student Response Sheet (page 134).
