       • Bloom's Level: Remembering and Applying
       • Lesson Plan: As a class, student's will read two versions of The Little Mermaid, then review their understanding and determine a moral using language and visual cues from both works. We will hold a brief Socratic seminar, during which student will discuss the morals and the differences in both stories. They will then return to their seats to compare and contrast the stories, creating a Venn Diagram to show the similarities and differences in the depiction of the mermaid in each story. These activities will prepare them for tomorrow when we will start writing (Creating) compare and contrast Essays.
