My lesson plan for my ci350 class

1. By: Robert Lockhart

2.  The class that I will be teaching will be a 5th
grade history class. The class has 20
students. There are 11 girls and 9 boys.
Within this class there are 3 Hispanic, 5
African American, 4 Asians, and the rest are
Caucasian.

3.  My main objective for this class is to teach
the students about the different branches of
government, the House of Representatives,
the Senate, and how a bill becomes a law. I
plan on doing this with at least 70% accuracy
and the students will learn through project
based activities and through YouTube videos.

4.  Monday- we will discuss
the Legislative branch of
government and
Congress.
 Tuesday- we will discuss
the Executive branch and
the President.
 Wednesday- we will
discuss the Judicial
branch and the different
levels of courts.
 Thursday- we will
discuss the process in
which a bill becomes a
law and the parts each
branch plays in this
process.
 Friday- the students will
be split up into different
groups; each group
representing a branch of
govt. and they will think
of something they want
to be a law and they will
go through the process
of getting it passed.

5.  For this lesson plan I
could use different
videos on YouTube
to help the students
learn.
 I could also use
PowerPoint
presentation as a way
to help them learn
the different
processes and
branches.
