1. ver the past four weeks you’ve had the opportunity to create a
classroom environment that supports the foundations of
differentiated instruction (DI), brainstorm differentiated
strategies that align with the Common Core State Standards, and
create the foundation for a unit plan based that incorporates
instructional technology while adhering to UDL and DI
principles.
This week you will use what you’ve learned to create a
summative assessment for the unit plan you created, using one
of the strategies from your PLC blog, and with the classroom
environment you’ve outlined in Week Two.
This summative assessment must include:
1. Common Core State Standard being assessed for mastery (it
can be the same one you used in Week Four’s assignment).
2. A unit goal that aligns with the Common Core State
Standard:
The students will (Measurable Verb) by (A specific outcome
with a specific tool) with ___% accuracy.
· Measurable – How will mastery be measured? (e.g.: Classify,
discriminate, create, construct, defend, predict, evaluate, etc…).
Be sure to avoid subjective words such as know, understand,
learn, or appreciate.
· A specific outcome – what will students do to demonstrate
mastery? (e.g.: skill or knowledge that has been gained to as a
result of this unit).
· Measurable progress – What tool will be used to measure
mastery (e.g.: project, journal, test, etc.)
· Proficiency Level – What is an acceptable level of

2. achievement to demonstrate mastery?
3. Three Formative Assessments – Using the three day lesson
plan outline from the unit plan, create a formative assessment
for each day that:
· A unique differentiated teaching strategy for each day’s
lesson.
· Addresses multiple intelligences.
· Considers student’s different learning styles.
· Explains how the assessment results will be used to drive
instruction.
4. Summative Assessment: Using the summative assessment
outline from the unit plan, create a summative assessment that
appraises mastery of the Common Core State Standard and the
Unit Objective. It must include:
· Directions to complete the assessment written using
vocabulary and terms geared towards your identified student
population.
· A rubric that clearly details how each part of the assignment
will be graded.
· Addresses multiple intelligences and various learning styles.
The assignment should be a minimum of five pages in length
and must include reference to the course text and one additional

formative/summative assessment. The assignment must be cited
in proper APA format. A title and reference page must be

US History
Problem 1:
Explain how events such as the Vietnam War and Watergate
affected the American public’s opinion of the U.S. government.
You must complete all three parts of the assignment.
Part 1:
Read the question above and write down what you think the
question is asking in your own words.(250-300 words)
Part 2:
Use an Internet search engine (such as Google, Yahoo or Bing)
to find sources that would help you answer the question. Try to
use the advanced search option to limit the number of results.
· You must choose four sources to complete this portion of the
assignment.
· Two on Watergate
· Two on the Vietnam War
· You must have at least two different types of sources. Your
sources could include a news or magazine article, a topic
website, an online encyclopedia, or video.
· Submit the following information:
· What search engine did you use?

4. · What words did you type into the search engine to get your
results?
· What sources did you choose? Provide the web address and
title of each source.
· Example: http://www.biography.com/people/richard-nixon-
9424076 Title: Richard Nixon Biography
Part 3:
Choose one Vietnam War and one Watergate source from Part 2
and complete the following:
· Write two or three sentences to summarize each source.
· Write what you think the purpose of the source is and who the
original audience would have been.
· Write at least one sentence explaining how the source helps
you explain the way the event affected the American public’s
opinion of the government.
· Choose a quote from the source that you would use as
evidence to support your answer to the question.
Example of Part 3:
Summary: This source is from a newspaper article and explains
how citizens reacted to the draft for the Vietnam War by
burning their draft cards and protesting on college campuses.
Audience: The original audience would have been any citizen of
the U.S. who read the newspaper in the 1960s.
Purpose: The purpose of the article is to explain methods that
people took in the U.S. to show their dislike for the draft.

5. Explanation of use: This source could be used as evidence to
prove that people were displaying their opinions to the
government and that a percentage of people did not agree with
the government’s actions regarding Vietnam.
Quote: A quote that I would use is: “Young men were burning
their draft cards in front of cameras taking footage for the
evening news.”
1. Choose three of the following events or actions to profile in a
presentation:
· March on Washington
· Montgomery bus boycott
· Watts Riots
· Selma March
· Children's Crusade
· Formation of Black Panthers
· Freedom Summer
· Freedom Rides
· Greensboro sit-ins
2. Summarize each event, including which of the civil rights
organizations and leaders were responsible for it.
3. Explain whether each event was violent or non-violent and
why.
4. Explain whether each event could be considered a success or
not. Be sure to include specific details to support your claim.
5. Explain your response to the following question: Based on
the outcomes of the events you chose, do you think violent or
nonviolent protest strategies were more effective?
6. Organize your work into one presentation in your choice of
format. Examples include a podcast, voice thread, slideshow,
video, or newsletter. There are many 21st century tools
available for creating and submitting these types of
presentations. For more information about tools your school
recommends, please visit the Web 2.0 Tools area in your course
or contact your instructor.
Problem 2
Answer the following questions in a complete paragraph of your

6. own words. (200 words)
What advances did the Women's Rights Movement make in the
1960s and 1970s? How was the movement similar to those of
the Mexican Americans and Native Americans?
Problem 3
This “Causes-Course-Consequences,” or CCC, chart is another
excellent way to summarize important information from history.
In it, you identify the cause or causes of a particular event and
what happened during the event, called the “course.” Then you
identify the outcomes, or “consequences,” of the event. It will
help you remember the significance of many historical events
and help establish connections between them.
Part 1: Complete the following chart by using information from
the lesson and putting it into your own words.
· two must be political events
· two must be economic events
· two must be social events
· two events of your choice
One example appears for you.

1980 Election
This was a political event because it caused a change in the
government.
Americans wanted a firm, patriotic leader who had a plan to fix
the economic problems carrying over from the 1970s.
Jimmy Carter was running for reelection, and Americans overall
were very unhappy with his leadership. Ronald Reagan emerged
as his challenger, a former actor with great public skills and a
plan.
They elected Ronald Reagan in 1980 who had a controversial
plan for fixing the U.S. economy, later dubbed “Reaganomics.”
