with the Main Hook, the Objective, and the Essential Question.
Summative Assessment:
Have students work in small groups to create a vowel team town, each group draw, glue and write their own town on
11X13 paper
UNIT REFLECTION Cultural Capital: Discuss how this Unit increases your students’ access to “Cultural
Capital.”
I feel this unit has really helped the students recognize words when reading and writing that contain
common vowel teams. Knowing how the teams sound and work in print has really given them confidence
when reading and spelling words. Being able to ask the students to “think about the vowel team” when
they encounter a word has given them a larger body of knowledge.
