Lesson Title: Content Standard Alignment: Lesson Objectives/Instructional Outcomes: (Framework Domain 1c: Setting Instructional Goals) Outline the concept, knowledge, skill, or application students can demonstrate upon lesson completion. This may be the same as or very similar to the content standard; however, it could be narrower or perhaps broader. Objectives may be stated in the form of critical questions students should be able to answer. Relationship to Unit Structure: (Framework Domain 1e: Designing Coherent Instruction) How does this lesson support the unit goals / enduring understandings?
