Theme/Title: Composite of Class: 10th grade students

1. Learning Goals/Objectives
What student learning goals/objectives do Which indicators of the Arizona content
you have for this lesson? standards does this lesson address?

 Work in teams and come up with History (social studies) Citizenship

questions learning (on a local level)
 Talk with older generations in the
community

2. Methodology

Why did you choose these strategies/methods?

I chose these strategies because they include multiple methods of learning that different
learners might have strengths in. Students will also have to evaluate each member in their
team and how much they worked.

How will you group students for instruction? I’ll randomly number off each student
either from 3 to 5, depending on how large the class is.
List below your activities/steps including how you activate background knowledge, gain
student attention (set induction), demonstrate processes and desired outcomes (modeling,
guided practice, independent practice), and bring closure to the lesson. Also, articulate
how you will evaluate your lesson/determine if student learning occurred.
 Activity/Step Time Allocated

- Lecture on the history of school - 2 full class periods: about 2.5-3

- Ask comprehension questions hours
- Explain the group work - Interview: 40min-1hr
- And rubric - group paper: 2 weeks
- Have two full class period where
they pick who they want to
interview and come up with
questions specific to them
- Each member must come up with at

4. Assessment/Evaluation
Assessment Alternatives How will you evaluate each student
(check=process, x=product) goal/outcome?
X Application Objective Test How much information they learn about
Exam their participant, if they participated in the
Concept Observation group work (according to their
Mapping evaluations), and if their group paper
