Model/Strategy
(i.e., concept formation, concept development, direct instruction, cooperative learning,
inquiry, discussion model). Explain how you will best facilitate student learning through a
specific model of instruction. Be sure to include a rationale for the chosen model(s). You
may use more than one:

advicetostrugglinglearners.Iwillgivedirectinstructionwithimmediatecorrectivefeedbackto
guidethemintherightdirection.I would also use the concept development model,
which gives students a change to make generalizations of their future and
how they expect to achieve their goal.

Differentiating Instruction
How will you differentiate to meet the needs of your learners (i.e., what you teach, how
you teach, or how you will assess). Explain:

Initiation
Cite how you will engage and motivate learners, activate prior learning and present the lessons
objective.
Explain: A) What they will be doing and learning in the lesson; B) How they will
demonstrate learning;
C) Why it is important to their everyday lives.

Lesson Development
Cite how you will provide opportunities for the students to construct meaning. List the
steps/process you will follow. Be sure to identify how you will check for understanding
and collect formative data. Differentiate for students who will require an accommodation
or modification in order to be active participants in this lesson and state these strategies in
the differentiation section above.
1. Once I complete reading the book, I will show the students this clip on YouTube
that I made using powtoon.com. https://www.youtube.com/watch?

2. Then, I will pass out the measurement worksheet for the students to record their
data.
3. I will explain to the students that they have to choose 5 pages in their book and
measure the distance from one end to the other. For example, I will model to the
students that they can choose pages 5 and 6 and measure the length of the road.
4. I will put students in pairs so they can have a partner to work with.
5. Once they have completed all 5 measurements, I will bring the class back together
as a whole.
6. I will present the http://padlet.com/wall/9mpldjggvqyilink.Iwillaskthestudents
topostthepage,objecttheymeasuredandthelengthoftheobject.
7. All pairs should have 5 total posts in the padlet.com link.
Closure
How will you question students in order to evaluate if the objective(s) was met? How will
you question students to connect this lesson to previous and subsequent lessons as well as
connect to their own lives? How will you question students to see the relevancy of the lesson
by understanding the purpose/importance of the learning?
In conclusion, I will bring the class back together and review what we learned. I will have
groups share out what they noticed and an example of a measurement they made.
