An original lesson plan — not one from your district or other source, but one you have written based on your current students’ needs. The lesson plan MUST include instruction for both the whole class, AND instruction for small groups that is targeted to the needs you identified in the previous lesson analysis. The lesson plan must be very detailed so the instructor understands exactly what the learning objectives are for both the whole class and for those small groups who have shown additional needs, such as additional practice, additional instruction, or advanced instruction. You must include all instructional materials and resources with your plan. A three-page narrative that accompanies your plan. The narrative must indicate a thorough understanding of student needs and that you have planned appropriate learning activities and research-based supports to address each student’s learning needs. You must include a rationale for why you selected specific supports and activities, using the data you analyzed. Finally, you must include clear accommodations and modifications that are directly related to the students in your classroom. The instructor will review the Context of the Classroom form you submitted in the first assignment and your data analysis from the previous submission to ensure you have addressed the needs of all learners. As you develop your plans and write the narrative, you think about these things: What do your students know, what can they do, and what are they learning to do? What do you want your students to learn? What are the important understandings and core concepts you want students to develop within this lesson? How will you use your knowledge of your students’ assets to inform your plans? What instructional strategies, learning tasks, and assessments will you design to support student learning and language use? How will your lesson support students to develop and use language that deepens content understanding? How is the teaching you propose supported by research and theory about how students learn? Do not just answer these questions in your narrative; rather, think about how you will incorporate this information into your narrative.
