Classroom Strategies: Accommodations: (Look back to your process. Pick the step that you will accommodate for the learner. In this
(Refer to Canvas for section, write down the step and the detailed way you will accommodate. See lesson plan instructions and Canvas for
instructions) more details.)
Centers / Stations
Independent work time – support for students with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD):
Cooperative Learning
Because independent work time is long (30-40) minutes, students with ADD can easily
Discussion
get bored or distracted.
Graphic Organizers
While the rest of the students are independently working on their worksheets and
Manipulatives
short stories, I will help my student with ADD through the assignments by conversing
Technology Integration
with him/her about his/her favorite day ever. As the student shares this information
with me, I will tell the student to write each idea down because we will use it later for
the final draft of the short story.
I will use this strategy with each step of the process of creating his/her short story
until the student has a reasonable amount of information available to receive a full
grade.
If the student needs more time to finish his/her work, I will explain how to work on it
at home and I will make sure to send a message to the student’s parents/guardians
with the information necessary to help the student at home.
Assessment / Evaluation: (State your method of evaluating how the students learned the concepts or skills listed in your objectives above.
State WHAT you will assess and HOW you will assess.)
I will assess and evaluate the use of accents in students’ stories, and the use of creativity and imagination:
To assess and evaluate their creativity and imagination, students will present their stories to the class while
displaying their 3-scenes work-sheet on the ELMO overhead, and I will grade their presentation.
To assess and evaluate their use of accents I will collect their short stories after their presentation and check
and grade them. Once graded, I will return these to my students with notes and corrections, so students can
refer back to them and use them for future-reference.
