Objective:
The candidate teacher will be able to develop an arsenal of skills and techniques to
best reach the diverse needs of students.
Action-Oriented, Tracked Prompt: How will I demonstrate progress toward this goal?
Progress will be demonstrated through a pre and post-assessment, student work with feedback, resources
created by the candidate teacher (rubrics, graphic organizers, assignment sheets, etc.), and a video clip of the
candidate teacher instructing an inclusion classroom.
Measured Prompt: How will I know the goal has been achieved?
The candidate teacher will know the goal has been achieved through a pre and post-assessment, classroom
discussion, small group work, student feedback, feedback from the Supervising Practitioner and Program
Supervisor, and reflective practices on lessons and the video observation. The measurement of growth that will
confirm whether or not the goal has been achieved will be an initial assessment of utopia within the short story
Harrison Bergeron, and the end assessment will address the same concepts within an excerpt of The Giver.
Student growth will also be observed through their graphic organizers and final essays on the human condition
with Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut.

organizers, additional directions, or personal assistance in order to meet the needs
of diverse students.
