Instructional Plan Title: |
|
Lesson Objective(s) |
In 2-3 sentences, summarize the lesson, identifying the purpose of the lesson based on the content and skills you are planning to teach. |
Classroom and Student Factors/Grouping: |
Describe the important classroom factors (demographics of the classroom) |
National/State Learning Standards: |
Review national and state standards to become familiar with the standards you will be working with in the classroom environment. Your goal in this section is to identify the MS Social Studies Standards that are the focus of the lesson being presented. |
Specific Learning Target(s)/Objectives: |
Learning objectives are designed to identify what the teacher intends to measure in learning. These must be aligned with the standards. When creating objectives, a learner must consider the following: · Who is the audience? · What action verb will be measured during instruction/assessment · What tools or conditions are being used to meet the learning What is being assessed in the lesson must align directly to the objective created. This should not be a summary of the lesson, but a measurable statement demonstrating what the student will be assessed on at the completion of the lesson. For instance, “understand” is not measureable, but “describe” and “identify” are. For example: Given an unlabeled map outlining the 50 states, students will accurately label all state names. |
Academic Language |
In this section, include a bulleted list of the general academic vocabulary and content-specific vocabulary you need to teach. |
Resources, Materials, Equipment, and Technology: |
List all resources, materials, equipment, and technology you and the students will use during the lesson. |
Section 2: Instructional Planning
Anticipatory Set Your goal in this section is to open the lesson by activating students’ prior knowledge, linking previous learning with what they will be learning in this lesson and gaining student interest for the lesson. In a bulleted list, describe the materials and activities you will use to open the lesson. For example: · I will use a visual of the Civil War and ask students to describe what general do they see. |
Time Needed |
Multiple Means of Representation Learners perceive and comprehend information differently. Your goal in this section is to explain how you would present content in various ways to meet the needs of different learners. For example, you may present the material using guided notes, graphic organizers, video or other visual media, annotation tools, anchor charts, hands-on manipulatives, adaptive technologies, etc. In a bulleted list, describe the materials you will use to differentiate instruction and how you will use these materials throughout the lesson to support learning. Bold any materials you will need to prepare for the lesson. For example: · I will use a Venn diagram graphic organizer to teach students how to compare and contrast the two generals of the Civil War. Explain how you will differentiate materials for each of the following groups: · Students with special needs: · Students with gifted abilities: · Early finishers (those students who finish early and may need additional resources/support): |
Time Needed |
Multiple Means of Engagement Your goal for this section is to outline how you will engage students in interacting with the content and academic language. How will students explore, practice, and apply the content? For example, you may engage students through collaborative group work, Kagan cooperative learning structures, hands-on activities, structured discussions, reading and writing activities, experiments, problem solving, etc. In a bulleted list, describe the activities you will engage students in to allow them to explore, practice, and apply the content and academic language. Bold any activities you will use in the lesson. Also, include formative questioning strategies and higher order thinking questions you might pose. For example: · I will use a matching card activity where students will need to find a partner with a card that has an answer that matches their number sentence. · I will then have the partner who has the number sentence explain to their partner how they got the answer. Explain how you will differentiate activities for each of the following groups: · Students with special needs: · Students with gifted abilities: · Early finishers (those students who finish early and may need additional resources/support): |
Time Needed |
Multiple Means of Expression Learners differ in the ways they navigate a learning environment and express what they know. Your goal in this section is to explain the various ways in which your students will demonstrate what they have learned. Explain how you will provide alternative means for response, selection, and composition to accommodate all learners. Will you tier any of these products? Will you offer students choices to demonstrate mastery? This section is essentially differentiated assessment. In a bulleted list, explain the options you will provide for your students to express their knowledge about the topic. For example, students may demonstrate their knowledge in more summative ways through a short answer or multiple-choice test, multimedia presentation, video, speech to text, website, written sentence, paragraph, essay, poster, portfolio, hands-on project, experiment, reflection, blog post, or skit. Bold the names of any summative assessments. Students may also demonstrate their knowledge in ways that are more formative. For example, students may take part in thumbs up-thumbs middle-thumbs down, a short essay or drawing, an entrance slip or exit ticket, mini-whiteboard answers, fist to five, electronic quiz games, running records, four corners, or hand raising. Underline the names of any formative assessments. For example: Students will complete a one-paragraph reflection on the in-class simulation they experienced. They will be expected to write the reflection using complete sentences, proper capitalization and punctuation, and utilize an example from the simulation to demonstrate their understanding. Students will also take part in formative assessments throughout the lesson, such as thumbs up-thumbs middle-thumbs down and pair-share discussions, where you will determine if you need to re-teach or re-direct learning. Explain how you will differentiate assessments for each of the following groups: · Students with special needs: · Students with gifted abilities: · Early finishers (those students who finish early and may need additional resources/support): |
|
Extension Activity and/or Homework Identify and describe any extension activities or homework tasks as appropriate. Explain how the extension activity or homework assignment supports the learning targets/objectives. As required by your instructor, attach any copies of homework at the end of this template. |

7 Introduction
Introduction
Mission Statement The Mississippi Department of Education (MDE) is dedicated to student success, which includes improving student achievement in the social studies, equipping citizens to solve complex problems, and establishing fluent communication skills, while preparing students for college, career, and civic life. The Mississippi College‐ and Career‐Readiness Standards (CCRS) provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to know and be able to do by the end of each grade level or course. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that students need for success in college and careers and allowing students to compete in the global economy.
Purpose
This document is designed to provide districts and K-12 social studies teachers with a basis for curriculum development. In order to prepare students for careers and college, it outlines what knowledge students should obtain, and the types of skills students must master upon successful completion of each grade level. The 2018 MS CCRS for the Social Studies reflect national expectations while focusing on postsecondary success, but they are unique to Mississippi in addressing the needs of our students and teachers. The standards’ content centers around three practices: conceptual understanding, fostering inquiry, collaboration and action, and integration of content skills. Instruction in these areas is designed for a greater balance between content and process. Teachers are encouraged to transfer more ownership of the learning process to students, who can then direct their own learning and develop a deeper understanding of the social studies and the problem-solving process. Doing so will produce students that will become more capable, independent, and literate adults.
Implementation The 2018 MS CCRS for the Social Studies will be piloted during the 2018-2019 school year and implemented during the 2019-2020 school year.

• National Council for the Social Studies: College, Career, and Civic Life (C3) Framework for Social Studies State Standards: Guidance for Enhancing the Rigor of K-12 Civics, Economics, Geography, and History
• National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Framework for Civics, Economics, Geography, and U.S. History
• ACT College- and Career-Readiness (CCR) Benchmarks
• National Standards for History Education
• National Standards for the Social Studies
• National Standards for Economic Education
• National Standards for Civics and Government
• National Standards for Geography
• Standards for Advanced Placement programs
• Social Studies standards from other states
• Current literature and research regarding the Social Studies These resources served as a foundation for the development of the 2018 MS CCRS for the Social Studies.
