Common Core Standards:

List the standards your lesson will address It is fine to copy and paste the standards.
See http://ims.ode.state.oh.us/ODE/IMS/ACS/
or http://www.ohiorc.org/
or http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Academic-Content-Standards/New-Learning-Standards
for standards related to your area/grade level.
If you are planning a lesson for students Pre-K and younger, use the Ohio Early Learning Standards here:

Lesson Summary:
Briefly describe the procedures and purposes of the lesson. Youll go into more detail later, so just provide a
summary of what the lesson entails.
Estimated Duration:
Include an estimate of the time needed for instruction. (ie. This lesson will take about two hours. I plan on
dividing the lesson into two days, with each class period lasting 55-60 mintues). Keep in mind that for younger
students, lesson may need to be broken up into smaller sessions, while older students may benefit from longer
lessons.
Your lesson needs to be at minimum 100 minutes long, and up to 250 minutes long (roughly five 50 minute
class periods.) The time can be broken up into as many sessions as you deem appropriate for your grade/age
group.

Commentary: discuss briefly your approach to the lesson here. What do you anticipate being a challenge?
How will you get your students hooked into the lesson?

Instructional Procedures: (This will be one of the most detailed sections of this assignment).
Describe the instructional steps that will be taken to implement the lesson. For each section of the lesson,
document how much time it will take and what students are expected to do. Make sure to cite your uses of
technology as often as possible.
Please take the time to provide a clear narrative as to how the lesson will unfold.
Day 1: INCLUDE SCAVENGER HUNT WITH QR
First 10 minutes: Introductory activity- Students will..
20 minutes: I willstudents will.
Describe what you and your students will be doing as the lesson unfolds.

Day 2:
etc.

Pre-Assessment:
Identify one strategy to pre-assess student knowledge of the standards your lesson addresses.
Tell me what you will do to determine what your students already know about the information being taught in
the lesson.
Getting pre- assessment data helps you figure out how quickly or slowly you should move through the
lesson.
Pre-assessments may be as informal as a reflection on students prior learning, a conversation about concepts
or warm-up problems at the beginning of class that are not scored. They may be more formally structured,
such as a quiz or an assigned writing topic.
Scoring Guidelines:
Define scoring guidelines for the pre-assessment, which may take the form of teacher judgment, a
checklist or another scoring format. Scoring guidelines should reveal whether or not student has met
the standard so that instruction can be modified and targeted to learners accordingly.

For example- if youre planning on giving a quiz, tell me how youre going to grade it. If youre going
to conduct an observation on student activities, how will you assess it? Explain.
Teachers should conduct ongoing teacher assessment and student self assessment throughout instruction (this
is called formative assessment). These can be planned or conducted as opportunities for observation or
reflection arise. If planned, describe here.
Post-Assessment:
Your post-assessment should assess what students have learned AFTER the lesson is finished. This may take
the form of an exam, a student project (like a digital poster or infogram, or perhaps a youtube or xtranormal
video), or maybe a written work.
Scoring Guidelines:
Define scoring criteria for the post-assessment. Will you have a score and percentage for the exam, or
will it be pass/fail? How will you grade posters or other student projects? Be able to defend the process
behind how you score your post-assessment.

Differentiated Instructional Support

Describe how instruction can be differentiated (changed or altered) to meet the needs of gifted or accelerated
students: this might be an extra challenge assignment using technology, or an opportunity for these students
to peer-tutor students who are struggling- explain.
Discuss additional activities you could do to meet the needs of students who might be struggling with the
material:

Extension
Provide a link to a website where students could go to learn more about the standards you are addressing in
your lesson.
Briefly explain what the site is and how students could benefit from using it.

Homework Options and Home Connections

Describe work that will be assigned to students outside of the classroom. (In the next assignment, you may
provide examples (generated by you) of student work if possible). Brainstorm ways that you could make
these homework activities technology-based.
If your students are too young to do homework, use this space to explain how youd encourage parent

involvement at home in learning the skills addressed in your lesson.

Interdisciplinary Connections
Tell how the lesson can be integrated with at least two other content areas to strengthen student learning. For
example, if youre having your students do a comparison and contrast paper on Hamlet and Macbeth, what
other subjects could you draw into the lesson? Perhaps youd want to talk about the social and political climate
of the time period of the two plays (History) as well as the big questions asked in each play- to be, or not to
be? (Philosophy and Ethics).

Materials and Resources:

For teachers

List the materials you will need to teach the lesson.

REMEMBER: we want to use technology as much as we can in this lesson, and make
it as helpful as possible to our students. What will you need, and how will you do this?

For students

List the materials your students will need to complete the lesson and learn the material.
We want students to use technology for this lesson. What will they need (iPads,
laptops, a smartboard, etc)?
QR Code reader (scavenger hunt?)

Key Vocabulary
List key terms that need to be defined prior to or as part of instruction here.
