Prerequisites (Prior Knowledge):

Social: Students should be able to work quietly, avoiding distracting other

classmates. Students should be able to share materials without having issues.
Cognitive: Students should be able to understand what is taught and apply it to
their work. Students should be able to develop their project on their own with
previous knowledge on drawing.
Physical: Students should be able to use all materials properly and safely. Students
should be able to keep up with the rest of the class and stay on topic.
Emotional: Students should be able to work separately on their own work without

copying or getting offended by others.

Procedures:
Instructor will provide a demonstration of what is expected for this unit.
Students will be encouraged to use their drawing from the previous lesson to
make their clay model.
When students are finished with the model, it will serve as a tool to help
them come up with ideas of objects to use for the assemblage project.
Students will keep record of these ideas and brainstorm others before
moving onto the last lesson of the unit.
Accommodations:

To accommodate for students who may have a harder time focusing or

concentration, I will be sure to check on them throughout the lesson. By walking by
their desk and looking at their work, I will be able to see if they are keeping up and
following along. Students who may work quicker than the rest will be encouraged to
create a second model of their animal.
