Lesson
Introduction (5 minutes)

Explicit Instruction/Teacher Modeling (15 minutes)
- Using the computer or electronic tablet, read The Little Red Hen with your students.
- Ask students comprehension questions throughout the story to check their understanding.
- Ask students if they've identified a pattern in the story (e.g. "Not I").
Guided Practice/Interactive Modeling (15 minutes)
- Ask the students whether they agree with the Little Red Hen's decision to eat the bread all by herself in the end. Is it nice or not nice of her to do so? Allow the students to express their opinions and debate this question.
- Divide the class into two groups and have them debate.
Independent Working Time (30 minutes)
- Have the students work on the Little Red Hen Felt Craft activity.
