State/National Standards: Select a math and science standard, and at least one ISTE-S standard.
Specific Learning Targets/Objectives: Aligned to the selected science, math, and ISTE-S standards.
Academic Language: Key terms for this lesson.
Resources, Materials, Equipment, and Technology needed for this lesson.
Section 2: Instructional Planning
Anticipatory Set: Explain how you will introduce the lesson and activate prior knowledge to trigger students’ curiosity and engagement in the lesson.
Multiple Means of Representation: Explain how the content will be presented in student-centered ways to engage all learners in investigating the theme/question. Provide examples of how to differentiate teaching practices by adjusting curriculum and instruction to meet the learning needs of all students and promote positive outcomes.
Multiple Means of Engagement: Explain how you will facilitate and guide activities that will allow students to explore, observe, experiment with, and apply the science, math, and technology content. Provide examples of how to differentiate to meet the needs of diverse learners.
Multiple Means of Expression: Describe formative and summative assessment methods that will be used to monitor student progress during the lesson and modify instruction and/or teacher guidance regarding the next steps for instruction. Provide examples of how to differentiate to meet the needs of diverse learners.
Extension Activity and/or Homework: Create a meaningful extension activity that can be completed in the classroom or at home that will allow students to further explore the objectives and/or theme/question and generalize learning outside of the classroom. A technology-based activity may be appropriate.
In addition, write a 150-300 word reflection addressing the following:
Explain how your extension activity adapts meaningful, developmentally appropriate learning strategies from your lesson plan to extend instruction beyond the classroom to meet the needs of students and their families.
Select 2-3 students from the class profile and explain how you used their assessment data to make ethically and legally informed choices about instruction when selecting appropriate goals, curriculum, and teaching strategies to promote positive outcomes for young children.
Support your reflection with 2-3 scholarly resources.
