Take a walk with me. Scholars participate in a gallery walk of the anchor charts their groups created about Inside Out & Back Again in the previous lesson plan. Pupils take notes about Ha's character on sticky notes as they take the walk. They then reform their groups and discuss the sticky notes before finishing the lesson plan with a mid-unit assessment.
