Part 1 In this course, we have covered state standards, objectives, anticipatory sets, differentiation strategies, and assessment. It is now time to put all of these components together to create an effective lesson plan. When designing the particulars of a lesson plan, you must ask yourself the following questions: What is the desired outcome? How can I meet the skill level of the students involved? What are the students’ interests and learning styles? If I were one of my students, would I want to participate in this lesson? How can I incorporate multiple modalities (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic) into the lesson? To be successful in executing any lesson, you must also consider the physical environment in which this lesson takes place, the materials needed to implement the lesson, and a back-up plan for any technological components. Having everything prepared in advance helps the lesson run smoothly and maintains the students’ focus. Submit a lesson plan that includes the following: Grade level and content standard Goal(s) and objective(s) A brief description of how this lesson fits into a unit or into long-range plans An activity and lesson designed to incorporate differentiated grouping opportunities (whole group, small group, and individual) A lesson description, including process, pacing, steps, materials, and resources The critical thinking skills, communication skills, or higher-order questioning you include in this lesson to expand the student’s expression, including the levels of Bloom’s taxonomy you use The following instructional strategies: An anticipatory set Differentiation for multiple levels of learners A technological component Peer interaction and communication Complete a KWL chart as an anticipatory set Differentiation for multiple levels of learners Include a hands-on learning approach A formal or informal assessment to track student learning
