Benchmark – Creating A Standards-Based Lesson Plan (ASAP – URGENT)

 (NO PLAGIARISM)

Professional growth in developing effective lessons and lesson plans   comes with practice. This assignment provides the opportunity to   connect the multiple elements of lesson planning into a single document.

For this benchmark, use the “COE Lesson Plan Template” to   create a standards-based lesson plan for a K-8 grade level. Complete   all sections of the lesson plan template. You may use previous work   from this course as a starting point for this lesson plan,   incorporating feedback received from your mentor teacher.

Your lesson plan should include the following:

  • Classroom and Student Factors/Grouping: Summarize the     Class Profile and use this information to direct the     differentiation throughout the lesson plan.
  • National/State     Learning Standards: May be based on the standard selected for the     Topic 2 assignment.
  • Specific Learning Target(s)/Objectives:     Objective written in Topic 2 to inform this section may be   used.
  • Academic Language: List any vocabulary students will     need to learn for full understanding of the lesson.
  • Resources, Materials, Equipment, and Technology: Lesson must     integrate digital tools and resources into the instruction and   assessments.
  • Anticipatory Set: Include pre-assessment or     required knowledge student will need to be prepared to learn.
  • Multiple Means of Representation: Include at least two of the     models or strategies previously discussed, along with a thorough     explanation of how the chosen model/strategy would apply to the     lesson. The Topic 4 assignment may be used to inform this   section.
  • Multiple Means of Engagement: Topic 5 assignment may     be used to inform this section. Specify how instruction would be     adapted to diverse students, based on an understanding of how     elementary students differ in their development and approaches to   learning.
  • Multiple Means of Expression: Include formative and     summative assessments to plan, evaluate, and strengthen your     instruction. Include technology resources in at least one     assessment. Label each assessment as formative or summative as     indicated in the lesson plan template.
  • Extension Activity     and/or Homework: Topic 5 assignment may be used to inform this   section.

Rationale/Reflection: In 250-500 words, answer the following questions:

  • How do the instructional models you chose for the lesson meet     the diverse learning needs of the students on the “Class   Profile”?
  • How does the instruction and assessment meet     the developmental needs of students and strengthen future     instructional decisions?
  • How do the technological resources     you selected engage students and support your assessment   practices?

Support your reflection with 2-3 resources.
