Lesson Plan Evaluation
The third grade language arts lesson plan uses Shel Silverstein's story The Giving Tree. It is expected that the lesson will be of high interest to the students because they are probably familiar with Silverstein's other works, Where the Sidewalk Ends and Light in the Attic.
The first activity is the pretend field trip. The teacher asks the students to close their eyes and picture a large open field. In order for this opening set to be effective, students should be prepared to be calm and fairly quiet. If possible, the lesson should be taught following a quiet activity such as independent reading or seatwork. The students will have an opportunity to get up and move around within this anticipatory set, but they could be overly active and a little silly if the teacher attempts to do the lesson immediately after a major transition. Additionally, for this activity to be effective, students should be familiar with visualization and the "think-pair-share."
It is a good idea to review story elements with students before reading...
Students have an opportunity to participate and share what they already know. This is a good informal assessment tool for the teacher, who can then adjust the lesson to give more examples, if necessary, to ensure all students understand. The photos will be engaging for the students and provide good starting points for discussion and vocabulary that students can use when they do their own writing.
The story element sort is a hands-on activity that will allow students to demonstrate what they know and what they have learned during the instruction portion of the lesson. The teacher should decide how students will complete this activity, as individuals, in pairs, or in small groups. Will the students complete the sort by affixing paper copies of words and pictures to a worksheet with columns, will they manipulate the paper copies without gluing them, or will they write their answers in the appropriate column? The teacher will have to adjust the time allotted for the lesson if students work in pairs or groups and if they use scissors and…
Lesson Plans Introduction Lesson plans ought to be designed as per the level of the targeted learner's skills and capabilities. Also, a lesson plan must seek to achieve the standards and goals set but the school, the state, or federal authorities. For a lesson plan to be not just successful but also effective, it must be designed to suit the resources available. Alternatively, a lesson plan should not be designed to utilize
Classroom Instructor Observation Protocol http://turlockusd-ca.schoolloop.com/siop California's Turlock Unified School District leverages the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) as the basis of its observation protocol. Specifically, this school system has different SIOP site plan protocols for its K-6 schools, 7-8 middle schools, and 9-12 high schools. Observation protocols mandate an instructional visitation that is comprised of a pair of classroom observations and a debriefing period from an instruction coach trained in SIOP methods.
Theoretically, CLIL draws on research that situates the integration of language and content as the relationship between form and meaning. An understanding of the theory and practice related to the content-based classroom is essential to the present study. In this section of the chapter, I outline the underlying theory and rationale commonly cited as a basis for CLIL, review empirical research that has evaluated CLIL in the classroom, and
Again, if the students got it wrong, she will switch the pictures and compliment their efforts either way. The teacher will then tell the students that while pizza can be all different types of thicknesses in America, in Italy it is usually very thin, almost like a cracker. She will also tell them that in America, pizza is usually round, but in Italy, it is often rectangular in shape. Once
