ELM-570 Science Unit Plan

Unit plans and lesson plans go hand in hand. A unit plan is the overall big picture that must be accomplished, while the lesson plans are the smaller pieces of the puzzle that come together to meet the standards of the unit. As a teacher, you will be expected to take a unit plan and break it into several lessons that are well aligned to the unit and meet the individual pieces of the overall learning outcomes.

Part 1: Lesson Plan

Review the unit plan that you created in Topics 2-4. Choose one day from the “ELM-570 Science Unit Plan” to design a cohesive lesson plan for that day. Use the “COE Lesson Plan Template” to create the lesson and include the following in your lesson plan:

· At least one standards-based science and one health learning objective

· Technological tools that promote digital literacy, engage students in inquiry-based learning, and support diverse learning needs

· At least one engagement learning experience that is cross-disciplinary and allows students opportunities for real-world application of science

Note: Ensure any instructor feedback about your unit plan is adequately reflected in the full lesson plan.

Part 2: Reflection

Write a 350-500 word reflection on the design of your lesson plan. Include the following in your reflection:

· Describe how the lesson plan supports the three-dimensional learning model, including a discussion of the scientific and engineering practices, the crosscutting concepts, and the disciplinary core ideas.

· Explain how the technological tools used in the lesson promote digital literacy and engage students in inquiry.

· Discuss how the instructional strategies used in the lesson engage students and support diverse learning needs through the incorporation of learning theories, evidence-based best practices, and technology.

Support your assignment with a minimum of three scholarly resources.

Submit your lesson plan, reflection, and resources in a single document.
