Lesson Plan: Day 3
ANALYZE LEARNERS: This unit is intended for a group of students ages 11-14. There are a
total of 7 males and 11 females, and 2 of the males have ADHD
Entry Competencies: All of these students are Spanish I students, so they have a very
limited knowledge of the Spanish language and culture. None of the students have
previously studied the material of this unit before.
Learning Styles: I have analyzed that these students learn best with project-based
learning. All of the students enjoy working in a group, but two of the girls do not enjoy
speaking in front of the class. Project-based learning also works very well for the students
with ADHD. I must keep the classroom moving at a steady pace, not spending too much
time on one topic or activity.
STATE OBJECTIVES:
Audience: Students ages 11-14, two with ADHD
Behavior: Students will become familiar with 5 different holidays in Spanish-speaking
countries. Students will work in cooperative groups in order to research their assigned
holiday, complete learning activities, and continue creating a presentation to present to
the class on the holiday they researched.
2. Conditions:
First, students will listen to a podcast about a holiday in Spanish-speaking countries. This
will be the attention grabber for the day, and they are allowed to use this information in
their presentations if they so choose.
1. Students will be presented with a WebQuest that they must complete as part of
their projects. Students may complete this on their own at home, or with their
group. This will be determined by the students depending on how much time they
need to complete their presentations.
2. Students will then be shown the website of SecondLife. This will be a tool that
they can use to explore different Spanish-speaking countries and participate in
holiday festivals. SecondLife is not required.
3. Students will continue working on their presentations in the school computer
lab.
4. The instructor will walk around the lab to make sure all group members are
actively participating in discussion and contributing to the project.
Degree: By the end of the unit, students will identify all 5 of the holidays we discussed in
class, and be able to adequately describe 3 aspects of the celebrations in different
cultures.
SELECT METHODS, MEDIA, AND MATERIALS:
1. The unit will begin with full class instruction, including everyone in the class and
requiring attention from all of the students. This will be when the podcast is
3. presented, instructions for the WebQuest are given, and SecondLife is introduced.
2. Students will use computers in the school’s computer lab, and will also be allowed to
work on their presentations from home if they so choose, communicating with group
members and the instructor using the classroom Edmodo page.
UTILIZE MEDIA AND MATERIALS:
Preview the Materials: As the teacher, I have created the WebQuest and have previewed
all websites that are included in the links of the WebQuest. I have also created the
podcast and made sure that it is appropriate for classroom use.
Prepare the Materials: I will have all media set up in the classroom before the students
arrive and make sure to reserve the computer lab to ensure my students adequate class
time to work on their presentations.
Prepare the Environment: When in the classroom before working on presentations,
students will be set in rows to ensure that full attention is at the front of the classroom.
This will allow the instructor to effectively communicate to the students while
introducing the unit. However, when students are in the computer lab they will be
working in groups and we can move the chairs to accommodate this.
Prepare the Learners: I will begin my presentation by reminding the students of the
objectives of the lesson, and also the guidelines for the evaluation at the end of the unit.
All students will be aware of what is expected of them, and are instructed to pay close
attention and participate in all discussions and presentations, as class participation is not
4. optional.
Provide a Learning Experience: I will use full enthusiasm and excitement to engage the
learners and optimize the learning experience. Getting the students interested, involved,
and informed is my top priority.
REQUIRE LEARNER PARTICIPATION:
Aside from the initial instruction, this entire unit requires learner participation. All
discussions are open to, and required from, each and every student. Participation in group
work and presenting is also required from every student. Students who are not
comfortable with public speaking may create some other form of result such as a podcast
to play for the class, or a video of their portion of the presentation. I must be able to
clearly see that they have participated and can effectively communicate the components
of their topic. The students will also be evaluated by what I observe of their participation
during the class discussions. Whether the students decide to complete the WebQuest in a
group or alone, each student must have their own final product that can be handed in for a
grade.
EVALUATE AND REVISE:
Assessment of Learner Achievement: Students will be evaluated on a 100 point scale,
their presentation being their assessment. A rubric is provided. For the WebQuest,
students will be evaluated on a 25 point scale, full points being given if they followed the
instructions of the WebQuest and have produced a well organized final result.
5. Evaluation of Media and Methods: Students will be asked to give, individually, an
evaluation of how effective they feel the unit was and how much they feel that they
benefited from the methods used. They will be asked to identify what they liked most and
least about the unit.
Evaluation of Overall Instruction: I will, in evaluating the lesson, take into account the
students’ final grades of the unit, the students’ evaluations of the unit, and revise the
lesson for future use, as needed, according to all of these factors.
