(or period) to consider for this project. In the box below, describe your grade level and content area / course:

Grade Level: 10-12

How can sociologists address homelessness?

Standards for your unit

In the box below, copy and paste a few standards that represent the content and skills students will be working on during your unit.
Remember that your standard should align with your SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT, so you may need to think about that first.
(https://dpi.wi.gov/standards). Make sure the number and description of the standard are below. If you would like to use more than one
standard, make sure you are able link your assessments to both standards, appropriately.
SS.Inq4.a.h
Communicate conclusions while taking into consideration that audiences from diverse backgrounds (e.g., gender, class, proximity
to the event or issue) may interpret the information in different ways).

Learning Target. Choose three sequential lessons within your unit. Write three learning targets for your lesson sequence (one for each lesson).
Write learning targets that increase in cognitive sophistication. Make sure your three lessons move up at least one level of Bloom’s taxonomy. It
is essential that the three lessons BUILD ON ONE ANOTHER, developing toward mastery of the standard. Remember to use a VERB and an
appropriate NOUN.
