 * Gryphon: Before, During, After Reading**


 * Before:**
 * Freewrite: describe an ideal substitute
 * Pull out quirky things that Miss F. says and put them on worksheet - have students say whether they are true or false
 * Classroom discussion about the perfect teacher - their ideas
 * Discussion based on true story - does it make it more or less interested
 * Picture of a gryphon - put Miss F's definition on board - small groups to discuss and assign people to come up with reasons why it's real or not-do you need proof?


 * During:**
 * At what point does Miss F cross the line - timeline, 2 column journal, while reading - write down the behavior that they feel is ood
 * Students take notes on story when they think she's tell truth or lying - highlight in different colors what's true or false
 * Think aloud - teacher reads passage and verbalizes thoughts on where he or she would take a note / question (model reading strategies)


 * After:**
 * Newspaper - slips of paper with different characters from story -- someone interviews the different characters - from small group interviews, write a newspaper article
 * Teachable moment - follow up with what an ideal teacher is - are they realistic
