This week you will construct a new instructional plan by considering your student population. Regardless of grade level, your class consists of 27 students. Of those, two are diagnosed with specific learning disabilities (SLD) in reading and math. One student has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Moreover, you just received a student last week who is not fluent in English (ELL). Your school follows a full English immersion program. Therefore, you and the student are getting very little “extra” support.

  • Learning objective (clear, measurable, describes WHO will do WHAT and HOW)
  • Gradual Release of Responsibility (each phase clearly labeled and utilized)
  • Considerations for unique learners (differentiation, accommodations, modifications through instructional activities AND assessments for the specific students identified as having diagnosed disabilities and language barriers. You must be more deliberate in how and where you interject your differentiation, modifications, accommodations, and so on within your activities, etc.
  • Evidence of purposeful rigor and student thinking – at least two levels of Depth of Knowledge (DOK), clearly labeled
  • At least one purposeful question posed by teacher to promote critical thinking;
  • Assessment FOR learning; embed three different ways to assess FOR learning, including authentic formative assessment

Elaborate on how you determined the types of accommodations/modifications needed throughout your lesson activities and assessments.
