My Language Arts Lesson Plan

My lesson plan for language arts is still in the very very rough stages. I haven't really been able to talk to my CT about the lesson plan in full detail yet but I plan on being able to do that this coming Wednesday. I am wondering how it will actually work when I go to teach my lesson because my CT has a very structured literacy block in the morning. The students begin with morning workshop, where they rotate through centers of which are mostly literacy-based. Then they have a snack while my CT reads them a story, usually a chapter out of a chosen book. After snack and story the students move on to writing in their journals. They can mostly write about anything they want, but my CT usually tries to give them some ideas. Lastly, after writing the students go to partner reading, where pairs of students share a book and read it aloud together. I was thinking of possibly basing my lesson around a book, and then having the students do some sort of writing prompt to go along with it. Possibly, something like reading a book but not finishing it, so the students can write in their journals what they predict will happen. Then coming back together in the group and reading some of their ideas, before actually finishing the story and finding out what really happened. Unfortunately, though I am still in the process of talking it out with my CT and finding a book. When I find one I will keep you posted :)
