Facilitation Note: Complete the Perseverance Graphic Organizer on chart
paper or whiteboard by having students discuss in small groups and then
share evidence for each section from what they know and understand
about Angela James. Remind them to refer to the Black Canadian Women
Contributor Poster and Information Sheet for Angela James for support. The
focus should be on specific evidence from her life to support the Character
trait of Perseverance.

CONSOLIDATING THINKING TO BUILD NEW KNOWLEDGE
Teacher Talk: It is now your opportunity to share evidence of Perseverance
of the woman contributor you have completed your rapid research on.
Continue to work collaboratively with your expert group as you work on your
graphic organizer.
Independent Practice: Support students as necessary as they complete the
Perseverance Graphic Organizer. Remind them to use the Angela James
model, the Black Canadian Women Contributors Poster and Information
Sheet along with their discussions and other notes to complete the graphic
organizer.
CONSOLIDATING THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Ticket Out the Door: During our next lesson, we will be sharing your woman
contributor to a small group. Take some time now to consider one fact that
you would want someone who does not know anything about your woman
contributor to know about and how that fact is evidence of Perseverance
or another Character trait. Write it on the Ticket Out the Door and hand it in
once you are done.
Lesson Note: Use the Ticket Out the Door responses to determine if students
need more time, lessons or instructions to consolidate their learning and
meet the Learning Goals and Success Criteria.
