Lesson Summary and Focus
Details:
Using the COE Lesson Plan Template, you
will be developing a lesson plan by completing and submitting several sections
of the template throughout this course. (These
assignments are separate from the Benchmark assessment, which you should also
be working on throughout this course.) As you submit sections and receive
feedback, you may revise previously submitted sections based on that feedback
before submitting the lesson plan again. (Revisions
are for coherency only; they will not affect the scores you received on the
initial submissions.)
For this assignment, complete the
“National/State Learning Standards” section by selecting a first- to fifth-grade level and a corresponding “Reading: Informational Text”
strand, cluster, and standard using the “Sample Annotated Excerpt.”
Complete the “Lesson Summary and Focus”
section of the lesson plan. In a few sentences, briefly summarize your lesson
and state its central focus based on the content and
skills you are going to teach.
For the grade level you are working
with, select a corresponding informational text from Appendix B of the
standards and list that text in the “Instructional Materials, Equipment and Technology” section of the lesson plan. Keep in mind the
diverse backgrounds and needs of your students as listed in the “Class
Profile.”
Select a writing, speaking and listening, or language strand, cluster and
standard(s) from Arizona’s College and Career and
Ready Standards that align with your selections.
Complete the “Classroom and Student
Factors” and “Specific Learning Target(s)/Objectives” sections of the COE
Lesson Plan Template.
APA format is not required, but solid
academic writing is expected.

activities of the lesson.
Use the COE Lesson Plan Template as a
point of reference for evaluating the components. After your critique, rewrite the lesson on the COE Lesson Plan Template
integrating standards and skills from another discipline (for example, math or
science).
Submit the lesson plan you found, your
analysis of it and your revised, integrated lesson plan to your instructor.

Teaching Activities” section of the COE Lesson Plan
Template (100-250-words) for each instructional
strategy that includes 10 DOK (depth of knowledge) questions based on your
selected informational text. Each “I Do” entry should have a corresponding

ELM 520 Week 6 Discussion
Question 1
Lillian Katz, a highly acclaimed expert
professor, researcher, and speaker on child education, has said, “When a
teacher tries to teach something to the entire class at the same time, chances
are, one-third of the kids already know it; one-third
will get it, and the remaining third won’t. So two-thirds of the children are
wasting their time.” Why is this often the case? What are some things you will
do as a teacher to help reach all of your students?
ELM 520 Week 6 Discussion Question 2
What makes evaluating a formative
assessment different than evaluating a summative assessment? Give an example of
a lesson you would teach in your class, and discuss how your formative
assessment could help students be more successful on
the summative assessment.
ELM 520 Week 6 Assignment
Benchmark – Children’s Informational Text Lesson Plan
Details:
For this benchmark, you will be creating
two children’s informational text lesson plans to teach from three different
strands of the Common Core Standards based on the
same informational text selection.
Use your Class Profile as background
information on your students. Utilize an informational text listed in Appendix
B of the Common Core Standards.
Create two formal lesson plans utilizing the COE Lesson Plan template. Each lesson must
include a combination of instructional strategies that are best suited for the
lesson and the needs of the students. Though it is not necessary to use all six
of the strategies below, each chosen strategy should
provide opportunities for all students to succeed.
1. Direct
instruction
2. Indirect
instruction
3. Collaborative
learning
4. Experiential
learning
5. Independent
study
6. Interactive
instruction
While the two lesson plans share a
theme, each lesson plan must be completed and
submitted as a separate lesson plan.
Completion of all assignment elements
listed above does not guarantee the University student will earn the maximum
score for each.
This assignment uses a rubric. Please
review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment
to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
