The Emperor's New Clothes | Grade 4 ELA Unit | EN/ES/HT | SpEd
The Emperor's New Clothes - What Is the Theme? - a Grade 4 English Language Arts unit on theme and point of view, Special Education and English Learner edition. Seven class periods: six story days (one part of the story per day, read aloud first) and a story test day. Fully trilingual: English, Latin American Spanish and Haitian Creole as three separate single-language files - never a translation table.
Day 1 - An emperor who loved new clothes
Day 2 - The empty looms and the old minister
Day 3 - Two men praise a cloth they cannot see
Day 4 - The emperor goes to look for himself
Day 5 - The dressing and the canopy
Day 6 - The procession and the ending (and the transfer task, The New Bell)
Day 7 - The story test
Every day: a Do Now, an "I can ... by ..." learning target, two story words, a SUPPORT / ON-LEVEL / STRETCH choice on every response point, a printed starter under every answer box, a Turn and Talk with the four discourse moves printed (agree, disagree respectfully, build on it, ask for the page), a student self-check, and an Exit Ticket.
The story text is Mrs. H. B. Paull's 1888 translation from Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales (public domain), read one part per day with page references; the transfer passage, The New Bell, is an original practice text written for this unit. Pictures: one 1888 plate from the same book (public domain) and six storybook-style illustrations created for the unit (not photographs).
