Day 5: Literary Terms Quiz and Irony Lesson Plan
Lesson Flow
1. Independent Reading & Reading Log (15 minutes)
Begin class by handing out the reading logs.
Students will read silently for 10–15 minutes and record one important thing from their book.
2. Literary Terms Quiz (10–15 minutes)
Administer the literary terms quiz using Google Forms (covering the first 15 terms from the glossary introduced earlier in the unit).
Allow students to complete the quiz individually.
This gives you quick, trackable data on which terms need reteaching.

3. Video Clips: Irony in Teen Titans Go (10 minutes)
Play a short YouTube clip of Teen Titans Go that highlights different types of irony (verbal, situational, dramatic).
Ask students to note examples as they watch.
Verbal Irony
Dramatic Irony
Situational irony
4. Writing Definitions of Irony (10 minutes)
After the clip, have students write out the definitions for:
Verbal Irony
Situational Irony
Dramatic Irony
Discuss as a class, making sure they can apply examples from the video.
5. Complete and Submit Plot Diagrams (10 minutes)
Have students return to their plot diagrams from the previous lesson.
Give them a few minutes to finish, then collect them for assessment.
Teacher Notes
Ensure the Google Forms quiz is ready to share with students at the start of the quiz segment.
If time permits, invite a few students to share their favorite ironic moment from the video.
Plot diagrams can serve as a formative assessment for story structure understanding.
