Title and # within Unit

th

Grade Level

Lesson Foundation
Central Focus
What is the focus/outlook for the
unit or lesson segment?

Common Core State


Standards
What CCSS are most relevant to
the learning objectives and IEP
goals/ILT?

Lesson Objective(s) (LOs)

What are the specific learning


goals for student(s) in this
lesson? Lesson objectives should
have students demonstrate skills,
procedures, concepts, reasoning,
problem solving, or
demonstrating thinking or
strategies.
Must be observable and
measurable.

Individual Learning
Targets (ILT) or IEP goals
What are specific IEP goals or
ILTs for students within your
lesson?

Students will develop ways their school can reduce waste.


Writing standards for literacy in all subjects grades 9-10 standard 6. Write
informative/explanatory texts, including
the narration of historical events, scientific
procedures/ experiments, or technical processes.
Students will create an action plan in order to help reduce waste in some facet in
their community. Together they will compile evidence and data about the costs
of waste, office supplies, food in the cafeteria, etc., and ways they can reduce
costs and the environmental impact. This will be a multiple day lesson and will
involve meeting with food staff personnel, building and district administration
directly involved with budgeting, as well as a field trip to either the waste water
treatment plant, or a local recycling facility or dump.
- Find information from several sources including books, interviews,
electronic in order to support an idea
- Develop computer skills in order to publish information on a web journal
or blog

Lesson Assessments (LA)


(Formal or Informal)

1. Describe each assessment used in this lesson plan to collect evidence of learning.
2. Describe what the assessment will be specifically collecting what will students demonstrate?

Informal

There will be ample opportunity for conversation and discussions between


students, district staff and other facilities staff.

Formal:
Log

Students will be required to keep an observation log of all of their interactions


with different personnel and of all the different facilities observed.

Comprehensive action
plan

The final formal assessment will be a written proposal to be dispersed


throughout the school of ways the district and staff can reduce costs, and
environmental waste. Students will also need to work on computer skills in
order to post this information digitally.

Instruction
Prior Academic Knowledge and
Concepts
1. What knowledge, skills, and concepts
must students already know to be
successful?
2. What gaps in knowledge do these
students have that are necessary to
support in meeting LOs and ILTs?
3. How will you connect to prior
knowledge, skills or concept in your
lesson and how will you provide gap
support for students, who need the
necessary information.

1. Students must know how to keep a journal of information they gather


over several days.
2. Students will need to develop new computer skills and develop
interviewing techniques.
3. This lesson will come towards the end of a unit where students will
learn about recycling, and the effects of human waste on the
environment. Therefore, they will already have a solid foundation of
the topics covered in their presentation.

knowledge to students to support
developing an understanding of the
LOs and/or ILT.

students are meeting the intended
LOs and/or ILTs. (Evidence of
Learning)

students struggling with gaps of
knowledge to complete the task.
Closure
__3__ # of Minutes to teach
How will you end the lesson so
students have closure? Students
understand all homework or after
classroom expectations.

I will present a list of common things used every day in school such as:
paper, electricity, water, items used in food service, and will take a poll of
students guesses on what the cost is to a school district for a year, and how
much waste is produced. I will also show a brief power point showing the
average amount of waste a school and individual home produces in a year in
order to hook students interest.
I will give the answers to the questions asked in my introduction, and lecture
students on common costs in a school which students frequently over look. I
will also at this time introduce the assignment the class will be undertaking.
They will be given the rubric they are to be scored on as well, as well as the
time frame of the assignment.

Students and I will begin compiling a list of some of the most wasted, and
environmentally detrimental activities undertaken in a school on a daily
basis: electrical waste, leaving windows open while the heating/ air
conditioning unit is running, food waste, paper waste, ink, etc.

Students will take the list of different wastes from the Guided Practice
section, and will break into small groups in order to research who should be
contacted about the different areas. For example: Electical waste would be
directed towards the head of facilities, office supplies to the director of
business, also. They will need to research who to contact on a city and
county wide scale.

This will be just a few minutes at the end of class to wrap of the first day of
discussion.

Special Education Lesson Plan

Generalization
How will you generalize the skill(s) so
the student can use in different
environments?

Maintenance
How will you maintain the skill(s) so
the student does not lose it?
Student Interactions
How will you structure opportunities
for students to interact talk with one
another, work with a partner, or in
groups? What criteria will you use
when forming groups?
Materials
Think about the materials you will
need every step of the way through
your instruction

The concept of recycling and waste is pertinent to every individual, and I


will put things in terms that students can apply to their everyday living.
Students will be keeping a log of their own waste, and we will calculate how
much money they could save in the course of a year.
Students will be developing computer skills that will stick with them, and I
the lesson will also be developed around the universal language of money,
which will help students conceptualize the importance of the unit.
Students will work in small groups, individually, and as a whole class at
different periods throughout the unit. Students will be paired on a highlow basis, so the lowest students can have assistance from higher
functioning students.
