Prior Knowledge:
In order to gauge how much students have learned, it is not enough to
assess their knowledge and skills at the end of the course or program.
We also need to find out what they know coming in so that we can
identify more specifically the knowledge and skills they have gained
during the course or program.
Pirates are male and female and come from a wide range of
backgrounds.
Pirates from movies, literature and the media have formed popular
images of pirate identity and culture.

Lesson Focus
I will divide the students into three groups and ask them to,
write down What I Notice (their observations) and any questions
they had.
This will be the perfect segue to a KWL (what I Know, what I Want
to know, what I have Learned) because students will develop
enough background knowledge about pirates to arouse their
curiosities about time, place, people, culture, and ideas
associated with these seafaring souls.
Reflections
Combining historical fiction and content about key social studies
topics with engaging and interactive comprehension activities will
facilitate students comprehension and understanding of social studies
content as well as a desire to read and discover the world around us.
