For the mini-unit on persuasive writing, multimedia instructional tools can be integrated to
learning and engagement. These tools include an audio version of the story, a text to speech
program, an online dictionary and thesaurus, and PowerPoint presentations. During day one of
the persuasive writing mini-unit, students in the below grade level reading group will be given
the opportunity to listen to an audio version of the story in order to increase reading
comprehension and word recognition. The audio version will reinforce and build upon their
reading. On day two, students can utilize an online dictionary and thesaurus to assist with their
writing. These tools can help students utilize new vocabulary words correctly and understand the
meaning of these words. In addition, students can use a text to speech program so that they can
listen to their own writing. This will allow students to hear if their writing and punctuation
makes sense. It will also assist with word pronunciation and fluency. On day three of the miniunit, students in the above grade level reading group, can present their paper along with a
PowerPoint presentation that they have created. This PowerPoint allows these students to make a
more dynamic presentation that can incorporate visuals. The presentation will be useful for the
students in the lower reading level group, as they will have visual reinforcement to what has
been read. The use of the SMART Board can help to make students more interested in the
presentations and more engaged.
