I will teach a third grade class about the process of manufacturing goods from raw materials to the final product over five days. The class has 18 students who are mostly white and middle class. Students will learn about raw materials and natural resources, how labor and tools are used in production, how raw materials move to factories, how products are made in factories, and what happens to finished products. Lessons will incorporate storytelling videos, PowerPoints, internet research, and other media.

3. MAIN OBJECTIVE
I will teach the sequence of events to produce a product, from raw materials
to the final product to a third grade classroom of 8 boys and 10 girls. The
class is made up of 70% white, 30% African-American. The Socio-Economic
Status is middle class. My students will demonstrate the pattern in which raw
materials are manufactured to form a finished product to sell. By learning
about these raw materials and where they come from. Analyze natural
resources and their importance in our economy. Grow raw materials to
understand the hard work that takes place. With a 90%-100% accuracy they
will understand the process of manufacturing goods.

processing, and formulation.)
Day 3: How these raw materials are brought to factories
Day 4: How the products are made
