Common Core Standards:

List the standards your lesson will address It is fine to copy and paste the standards.

for standards related to your area/grade level.

If you are planning a lesson for students Pre-K and younger, use the Ohio Early Learning Standards here: http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Early-Learning/Early-Learning-Content-Standards

Lesson Summary:

Briefly describe the procedures and purposes of the lesson. You’ll go into more detail later, so just provide a summary of what the lesson entails.

Estimated Duration:

Include an estimate of the time needed for instruction. (ie. “This lesson will take about two hours. I plan on dividing the lesson into two days, with each class period lasting 55-60 mintues). Keep in mind that for younger students, lesson may need to be broken up into smaller sessions, while older students may benefit from longer lessons.

Your lesson needs to be at minimum 100 minutes long, and up to 250 minutes long (roughly five 50 minute class periods.) The time can be broken up into as many sessions as you deem appropriate for your grade/age group.

Commentary: discuss briefly your approach to the lesson here. What do you anticipate being a challenge? How will you get your students “hooked” into the lesson?

Instructional Procedures: (This will be one of the most detailed sections of this assignment).

Describe the instructional steps that will be taken to implement the lesson. For each section of the lesson, document how much time it will take and what students are expected to do. Make sure to cite your uses of technology as often as possible.

Please take the time to provide a clear narrative as to how the lesson will unfold.

Day 1: INCLUDE SCAVENGER HUNT WITH QR

First 10 minutes: Introductory activity- Students will…..

20 minutes: I will…students will….

Describe what you and your students will be doing as the lesson unfolds.

Day 2:

etc.

Pre-Assessment:

Identify one strategy to pre-assess student knowledge of the standards your lesson addresses.

Tell me what you will do to determine what your students already know about the information being taught in the lesson.

Getting “pre- assessment” data helps you figure out how quickly or slowly you should move through the lesson.

Pre-assessments may be as informal as a reflection on students’ prior learning, a conversation about concepts or warm-up problems at the beginning of class that are not scored. They may be more formally structured, such as a quiz or an assigned writing topic.

Scoring Guidelines:

Define scoring guidelines for the pre-assessment, which may take the form of teacher judgment, a checklist or another scoring format. Scoring guidelines should reveal whether or not student has met the standard so that instruction can be modified and targeted to learners accordingly.

For example- if you’re planning on giving a quiz, tell me how you’re going to grade it. If you’re going to conduct an observation on student activities, how will you assess it? Explain.

Teachers should conduct ongoing teacher assessment and student self assessment throughout instruction (this is called formative assessment). These can be planned or conducted as opportunities for observation or reflection arise. If planned, describe here.

Post-Assessment:

Your post-assessment should assess what students have learned AFTER the lesson is finished. This may take the form of an exam, a student project (like a digital poster or infogram, or perhaps a youtube or xtranormal video), or maybe a written work.

Scoring Guidelines:

Define scoring criteria for the post-assessment. Will you have a score and percentage for the exam, or will it be pass/fail? How will you grade posters or other student projects? Be able to defend the process behind how you score your post-assessment.

Differentiated Instructional Support

Describe how instruction can be differentiated (changed or altered) to meet the needs of gifted or accelerated students: this might be an extra “challenge” assignment using technology, or an opportunity for these students to peer-tutor students who are struggling- explain.

Discuss additional activities you could do to meet the needs of students who might be struggling with the material:

Extension

Provide a link to a website where students could go to learn more about the standards you are addressing in your lesson.

Briefly explain what the site is and how students could benefit from using it.

Homework Options and Home Connections

Describe work that will be assigned to students outside of the classroom. (In the next assignment, you may provide “examples” (generated by you) of student work if possible). Brainstorm ways that you could make these homework activities technology-based.

If your students are too young to do “homework”, use this space to explain how you’d encourage parent

involvement at home in learning the skills addressed in your lesson.

Interdisciplinary Connections

Tell how the lesson can be integrated with at least two other content areas to strengthen student learning. For example, if you’re having your students do a comparison and contrast paper on Hamlet and Macbeth, what other subjects could you draw into the lesson? Perhaps you’d want to talk about the social and political climate of the time period of the two plays (History) as well as the big questions asked in each play- “to be, or not to be?” (Philosophy and Ethics).

Materials and Resources:

For teachers List the materials you will need to teach the lesson.

REMEMBER: we want to use technology as much as we can in this lesson, and make it as helpful as possible to our students. What will you need, and how will you do this?

For students List the materials your students will need to complete the lesson and learn the material. We want students to use technology for this lesson. What will they need (iPads, laptops, a smartboard, etc)?

QR Code reader (scavenger hunt?)

Key Vocabulary

List key terms that need to be defined prior to or as part of instruction here.
