Beyond the EU: DORA and NIS 2 Directive's Global Impact
Assure Method
1. Analyze Learners-
Teaching the months of the year to a 1st grade class, Special ed, 10 boys, 7 girls, 70%
white 20% African-American and 10% Hispanic.7 students in the class have mild to
severe ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).
State Objectives-
After three days, my class will communicate the months of the year in order by making a
calendar, singing songs, interacting and lining up based on their birth month with 80%
accuracy.
Select Methods-
Students will design their own calendars with the months in order and with spaces for
the days using paper, pencils, and crayons.
Students will watch a Youtube video with a song to remember the months of the year
and will sing along.
Students will be asked their birth month and will decorate a nametag with their month on
it using the materials from the calendar they made. They will then be asked to line up
based on odds and evens, in order, by season, etc. In the case of seasons, they will be
asked about what they think of that season and to describe that season.
Utilize the Materials-
Before each activity I will go over the materials and their purpose in that day’s
assignments. Each student will receive twelve pieces of paper for their calendar and
have crayons and pencils made available to them at their tables. I will ask them to
create a calendar and show them one that I have made so they have a model to work
off of. For the Youtube video, I will tell them what to expect in the video and play it for
them a couple times without them singing. Then I will ask them to stand and sing along
with me. Lastly, for the birth months, I will give each a piece of paper to hold and ask
them to put their month on it and decorate it based on what that season makes them
think of. I will then ask them to line up in the various orders and have them discuss and
share with the class their name tags and what those seasons mean to them.
Require Participation-
This plan will cater to many different styles and get the students involved in what they
are learning. They will be talking and discussing, getting to be creative through drawing
and coloring, get to sing and learn through music, and get to move around the room
instead of being stuck at a desk. They will hear me and the video talk about the months,
as well as see the months on their calendars and in the way they are lined up.
Evaluate and Revise-
2. Students will be evaluated based on their calendars, their ability to sing along, and how
they are able to line up using their birth months. I will ask them about their birth months
and their calendars as they work and listen to how well they are able to sing the song.
Should my students have questions about the assignment or have difficulty with the
months, I will help them along with their work and will partner them up with those who
are better understanding the material so they can learn from each other.
