Students are introduced to comparing and contrasting through this writing process teaching model. It includes a sample compare-and-contrast chart, a blank compare-and-contrast chart, and four stages of revision to a sample compare-and-contrast essay.
Students will write the titles and main-character names from two stories, and identify the problem each character faces. They will then follow the directions in the first column to complete the chart. It is appropriate for use in Grade 5 Language Arts and Writing classes, but could be used for differentiated instruction in Grades 4 and 6.
