Part 1: Lesson Plan Analysis
What is the academic standard?
To utilize information gained from illustrations such as maps and photographs and the words in text to illustrate comprehension of the text. This entails identifying when, where and how major events occur.
· What is the learning objective?
At the end of the lesson students should be able to explain the importance of illustration in understanding a text. They should be able to utilize the pictures and words in the text to illustrate their comprehension of material with an accuracy of 80%.
· Are the standard and objective aligned? How do you know? Provide a rationale.
The standard and objective are entirely aligned. To determine whether standards and objective are aligned, one is supposed to determine to what level the learning objectives support and interact with the academic standards (Estes, 2015). The academic standards pay attention on utilization of illustrations to understand a text and the learning objectives support this because they focus on students being able to explain the importance of illustrations in comprehending a text.
· What is the lesson about? What does this lesson cover?
The lesson is about a medieval feast study. It focusses on reading information text. Students are supposed to utilize illustrations and words acquired from the Medieval Feast text to illustrated their understanding of the text.
· Do the assessments effectively measure the academic standard and learning objective? Justify your response.
The assessments adequately measure the academic standard and learning objective. Assessments adequately measure standards and objectives in case they are able to determine how well students have mastered what they were taught in the classroom (York, 2017). By completing a vocabulary activity, the instructor will be able to evaluate the results and determine how well the students mastered the concepts taught in class. By developing a list of vocabulary words and trying to determine their meanings, the instructor will be able to determine the areas students have understood and areas that he/she should teach.

Lodge, and 5) performing a play about geese. Students learn about goose migration, anatomy, and behavior. The program culminates with a community potluck where standards addressed by the camp are discussed.
Carrie lesson plans-final-project
This document outlines a place-based learning unit for a high school biology class. It describes 10 days of lesson plans that incorporate mapping, nature journaling, succession, fire science, and microbe sampling activities. Students will create maps of their home places and present them on video. They will also keep nature journals during outdoor observation periods. The goal is for students to become more aware of the ecosystems and places around them through experiential learning projects tied to the local area. Assessments include rubrics for the mapping project, cumulative nature journals, and a written test.
Carrie lesson plans-final-project.3
The document provides information on several lesson plans related to ecology and the boreal forest. The first lesson plan involves succession in the boreal forest and includes a three day plan involving an introduction, field trip, and follow up. The second plan involves having students collect living organism samples over multiple days to create a display. The third plan focuses on fire safety and having students evaluate home properties in the village for fire risk. The final plan describes having students sample and compare microbes from different environments under microscopes.
Bennett-Evolution presentation pdf
This document outlines an educational unit plan focused on evolution through place-based learning at Creamer's Field Migratory Bird Refuge in Alaska. The unit includes a nature walk and inquiry, learning about the history of Creamer's Field, comparing Darwin and Lamarck's theories of evolution, studying the tree of life through species identification, and having students participate in a debate about evolved traits of local species.
Carrie place-based learning in high school science
This document outlines place-based learning activities for a high school biology class. It includes literature supporting place-based education and how it develops self-confidence through hands-on experiences. The activities have students map and share their home places, keep nature journals throughout the year, study succession in local forests, compare phyla in collections, conduct fire safety home inspections, sample and identify microbes, and dissect native species. Formative assessments focus on literacy and documenting learning. Future plans include using a local ecology site and community service after rebuilding.
sarah Place based project learning (1)
This document outlines the initial goals and project-based learning model for a unit on resident birds in Yakutat, Alaska. The goals are to incorporate NGSS and state standards while including a cultural component. The project-based learning model involves 8 steps: describing the ecosystem, researching the problem through site visits and interviews, determining possible solutions, developing and implementing a plan, and summarizing and reflecting. The unit will involve students counting and identifying resident bird types on the train trail over the school year to address the problem of what birds live in the area. It includes several lessons engaging students with bird feeders, characteristics, heredity, and how traits help birds survive.
Kara salmon-make-the-kenai-go-‘round
This document outlines a 5-lesson salmon unit for high school students. Lesson 1 involves salmon anatomy and dissection. Lesson 2 covers salmon life history and species. Lesson 3 discusses salmon habitat and watershed ecology. Lesson 4 focuses on the salmon fishery on the Kenai River.

The unit aims to educate students on salmon biology and importance to Alaska through hands-on lessons and community engagement.
sarah Place based project learning
This document outlines the initial goals and process for developing a project-based unit on resident and migratory birds in Yakutat, Alaska. The unit will incorporate Next Generation Science Standards and Alaska State Standards, with a cultural component. It describes an 8-step project-based learning model that includes defining a problem, researching the problem, determining solutions, and implementing and evaluating a plan. Example lessons are provided on identifying bird traits and how traits can help birds survive. The tentative problem for 3rd and 4th graders is determining the types of resident birds that live on a local trail.
Place identity- Carie- guest presentation
This document discusses place identity and place-based pedagogy. It defines place identity as cognitions about the physical environment that help define a person, including memories, beliefs, and meanings relating to important places in their life. The document measures participants' connection to place and discusses how childhood places and experiences shape place identity and influence behavior. It explores teaching implications, asking how understanding place identity can inform place-based pedagogical practices.
