Instructional Model
I would use the Integrative model to framework my lesson plan. According to
Appendix D: Instructional Models - Teaching Content and Thinking Skills of the Albemarle
County Public Schools, "In the Integrative Model, students develop a deep understanding of
organized bodies of knowledge while developing critical thinking skills. The model is
designed to teach combinations of concepts, generalizations, principles, rules, facts and the
relationships between them, typically through the use of matrices which may be either teacher
or student-generated, depending on student readiness (e.g. a chart comparing characters in a
literary work in terms of personal attributes, conflict, and symbolism). Students are expected
to do the following: describe, compare, and search for patterns; explain similarities and
differences; hypothesize outcomes for different conditions; and generalize to form broad
relationships"(Albemarle County Public Schools, Appendix D).

Formative:
The formative assessment will be conducted by watching the
students participation
during the group reading and bubble graph to check for progress
and understanding.
The teacher will look for students to be participation by calling
on students and asking
questions. This assessment would be considered to be an
observational time.
Summative:
The summative assessment process will involve an independent
bubble graph being
completed by the students about two other works of fiction.
Procedure
1. Review previously learned material
No previous material
5. 2.State objectives of the lesson
I would then explain to the students that we were going to read
some stories and see how
they are alike and different.
3.Present new material
1. Hold up a copy of The Three Little Pigs and ask students
what book is this?
2. Show another copy of story and ask students about it. Is it the
same story? Do you
think they have any differences or similarities?
3. Ask the children to raise their hands and share with the class
what they
remember about the three little pigs.
4.Guided practice
1. Read the first book to the students aloud.(on carpet in front
of rocking
chair)
2. While reading ask questions of the students of the students to
check for
understanding and participation. Examples: What do you think
is going to
happen next?
3. At the conclusion of the book, use volunteers to retell the
story. Scaffold as
necessary to help students.
4. Read the second book in the same manner except begin with
questioning of
6. what they think may be different.
5. After you have read both books use the whiteboard to
illustrate the
attached bubble map. This should be done as a group.
6. Take a bathroom/brain break
7. Read the other two books that are similar.
8. Have the students talk to their reading buddy to discuss the
stories.
5.Independent practice
During independent practice I would give the students a bubble
map to complete on their
own. I would still monitor the students for comprehension. I
would use this time to do
small group or one on one work for students who are struggling
with the concepts.

My formative assessment would consist of checking for
understanding as I read
aloud to students as well as share pair partner time. I will give
students the
opportunity to work together as a pair to answer and discuss
9. questions.
Summative:
My summative assessment will be when the students are asked
to go back to their
sits for individual work. They will draw and write about the
plot, characters, and
meaning of story.
Procedure
1.Review previously learned material
Ask the children if they have ever read nursery rhymes or
fables. Most likely they
have covered them in some form during kindergarten. Ask about
their favorites and
if they remember the meaning behind fables and fairy tales.
2.Stateobjectivesof the lesson
I would explain to the students that we are going to read a story
and find the plot,
setting, characters, and moral of the story.
3.Present new material
1. Hold up the book "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and ask if
anyone has ever read
the book? Explain that it is a fable and what fables are...
2. I would then flip through the books pictures and ask for some
predictions.
3. Students would raise hands to answer the questions that are
presented.

are having difficulty with
and I will ask clarifying questions to redirect the thinking of the
students, on the spot.
Summative:
My summative assessment will be based on the final project. It
will be based
on their participation and comprehension presented in their
group performance. I
will provide a rubric and the students will be aware of what I

Procedure
1.Review previously learned material
13. Review with students that stories have a plot, characters,
setting, and morals.
Review the different types of literature fiction and non-fiction.
2.Stateobjectivesof the lesson
I would explain to the class that we are going to read and act
out our favorite part of a
story.
3.Present material
I would start by showing the book and then asking questions
about what they might
already know or predict happening.

5. Cooperative Learning
I would have the students break up into small groups of three or
four students and
work together to act out a scene from the story. I would use
14. this opportunity to go
around and guide each group into the right direction. They will
perform for their class
at the end of the lesson.
First Grade ELA 8
The focus of my project would be for students to be able to
identify settings, character,
plots, and lessons in stories. I would also want them to
understand the similarities and
differences in fables. It is important for them to be able to retell
a story through words,
drawings, graphic organizers, and reenactment.
I chose three forms of instructional models to make sure that I
am presenting a
differential learning environment. Some students learn form
direct instruction. Students are
receiving direct instruction through the classroom aloud reading
of the stories. The direct
instruction also helps to introduce a subject or new information
15. to students. It is also important
for students to get hands on experience. This is where graphic
organizers come into play. They
allow students to take what they have heard and apply it. The
reasoning behind my cooperative
learning was for students to build relationships and work
together. This activity will prepare
them for the future when thy need to be able to present
information in front of a group of people.
it also teaches the students to work as a team.
I would use several different modes of lesson for diverse
learners. For my ELL I would
provide a alternate language version of the stories. I would use
alternate graphic organizers for
diverse learners as well. And last but not least, I would organize
the group with varied
development to offset weakness and strengths.
The assessments used in each lesson will show mastery of the
objectives thorough
understanding and participation. I would use the graphic
organizers, drawings, and writings to
assess for individual learning and comprehension of fables and
their differences. I would also use
16. the group assessments to assess their ability to convert their
thoughts into actions.The assessment
will guide me into future lesson plans. I will be able to see what
information was received and
First Grade ELA 9
what information still needs to be learned. It will also help me
to see what learning style or
model was most effective for my students.
I will evaluate my unit by the assessments. I will use the
assessments to see if I covered
everything intended. I may have to go back into the lessons and
tweak them if understanding of
the unit is not apparent. I might also have to go back in and
reteach some part of the lessons if
the objectives where not meet. You cannot predict whether your
lesson plans will be effective or
productive. It is more of a trial and error and you have to be
prepared for both.
In conclusion, I am an amateur and still need plenty of practice
and learning to be an
expert at lesson plans. I think that my weakness is experience. I
17. think the more lesson plans I
write the better I will become. I think my strengths are my
ability to be flexible and open minded
to new or changing ideas. Teaching is not something you learn
overnight. It takes a lot of time
and dedication to get better and successful.

Question 1
· Explain the difference between variable and full costing.
· Explain why income calculated under full absorption costing
will be greater than income calculated under variable costing
when production exceeds sales.
· Explain how a manufacturing company can "bury" fixed
manufacturing costs in ending inventory under full absorption
costing.
· If the fixed manufacturing overhead cost per unit under full
costing is multiplied by the change in inventory between the
beginning and ending of the period, what does the resulting
number represent?
Question 2
Read the following case and then discuss your thoughts with
classmates:
An imaginary new country called Mazoa is attempting to create
a capitalistic society with free markets but maintain some
discretion over price control and market regulation. Since the
country is new, private enterprise is generally not controlled by
19. the government and accounting standards do not currently exist.
Leaders of the private sector and government officials are
meeting in an attempt to determine the best course of action in
regard to accounting standards. Some have suggested adopting
international accounting standards while others want the
country to develop their own standards because IFRS is not
suitable for Mazoa's fragile economy. Regardless of what step is
taken, accounting standards must be developed to show the rest
of the world that Mazoa has a stable economy and to encourage
foreign investment.
Based on the above scenario, what type of accounting system
would you recommend for Mazoa? Discuss the factors that
would influence your decision.
Question 3
SWOT begins with an analysis of the general business
environment. It then identifies the strengths and weaknesses of
the firm. This part of SWOT involves internal analysis, which
can normally be done fairly easily because it deals with areas
within the company.
Besides the SWOT analysis, name a couple of other internal
analyses that could be used to help improve your business or
marketing plan. Also explain a couple different tactics, within
these internal analyses, that can be applied in preventing your
strengths from becoming weaknesses.
