LESSON PLAN FORMAT

__ Teacher’s Name __ : Paul Santamore __Lesson #:__ 3 __Facet: Explanation__ __ Grade Level __ : 9-Diploma __Numbers of Days: 3__ __ Topic: Industrial Revolution __

__ Objectives __ Student will understand that technological changes during the industrial period had massive effects on today's society and environment. Student will know modern urban centers, urban plans, government, production, change, public housing, crime, social problems.

Student will be able toexhibit what qualities of today's urban centers can compare to those of the industrial period. Product: Prezi

__ Maine Learning Results (MLR) or Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Alignment __ Maine Learning Results Content Area: Social Studies Stadard Label: E; History Standard: E2; Individual, cultural, international and global connections in history Grade Level Span: Grade 9-Diploma; "Development of the Industrial United States, 1865-1914" Performance indicators: a, d
 * Students understand historical aspects of unity and diversity in the United States and the world, including Native American communities.

Rationale: The reason that this connects to the Maine Learning Results is because it is once again connecting the past to today's issues and society. This is an exceptionally crucial step in the education of our youth, because if you do not understand what happened in the past you are bound to repeat history's mistakes. My students will realize the good and bad that came with urbanization and will be able to relate to what they learn and apply in and outside of class.

__ Assessments __

__ Formative (Assessment for Learning) __ Section I – checking for understanding during instruction Students will use the thumbs up, thumbs down method to tell me whether or not they are understanding the topic that is being covered. Using this method will allow for complete participation by each class member and it will also allow for me to see whether or not they are truly understanding the topic. From this exercise, I will figure out who is struggling by asking questions directed at each one of them. After this period of time I will probably give time for them to come up and ask me questions individually or for us to answer questions as a class.

Section II – timely feedback for products (self, peer, teacher) The students will always start with self-reflection, because that gets them thinking and wondering about how they can improve what they may see as the deficiencies or problem areas in their project. The product will already be significant by this time, so the student may consider redoing pieces or even creating a whole new project for the final product. Once the student has finished assessing their own piece of work they will move and and assess another classmate's work so that they can give constructive feedback from a different point of view. This step is absolutely crucial because it brings wonderful suggestions and deeply thought out analysis to an already quality product. The last step in the feedback circle so to speak is coming to see me for five to ten minutes during or after class. Students should play their product for me in order for me to critique it for content validity and correctness. After I give my feedback I will send each student home with some things to correct in their recording. They can do a supplemental recording or they can even record my thoughts on the topic if their partner is not available outside of class time.

__ Summative (Assessment of Learning): __

•Prezi will be used to show the clash between culture and the urban society: Prezi will be introduced to the class through the showing of examples and a tutorial video. From there, the class will break up into groups of two or three in order to create a Prezi that pulls together cultural and economic aspects while showing what urbanization truly means today and back in the industrial period, because it is very very different. They will be asked to research cultures present in both time periods for example, Chinese, African American, etc. These Prezi should show some sort of controversy, struggle, or issue between the two major themes because that is the basis of urban centers and urbanization. These students will be expected to include some of their own culture and how they think that they would fit into an urban area. they should include examples and scenarios from their own life or the lives of their friends, family, etc. who may have had these experiences previously. These Prezi will be graded on effort, preparedness, quality, and overall presentation of facts and theories.

__ Integration __ Technology: My type II technology is called Prezi. Prezi is PowerPoint on steroids if you have ever used that version of presentation before. Basically, the Prezi is a slideshow that moves and flows in different ways than other presentation formats. It can be used to present at a massive news conference or in a classroom, and that is why I am having my students use it in my classroom. It can be considered a type II technology because of its awesome capabilities. Prezi is capable of moving information around, playing its own slides off of others in the presentation, and all while creating a sense of flow and questioning within the entire flick. Students will benefit from the use of this technology because it will allow them to be as concrete or abstract as they choose and it will only aid them further in developing a train of thought and processing ability. Students will be given the opportunity to critically think, analyze, and present their viewpoints and research on the topic of urbanization and culture through the use of Prezi.

Content Areas: Here is a list of connections made between other subject areas through my lesson... English will be used in order to express thoughts, evaluate sources, and create meaningful connections between text and thought. Math will be used in the sense of comparing economics between the two periods as well as uncovering statistics that show factual evidence about proclamations during the revolution. Science will be ever-present because of the connections to the environment during the industrial revolution. The arts will be included through the use of cumulative projects that will exhibit student creativity and artistic abilities. All subjects will be present in my lesson because the social sciences involve society and encompass many different things within life. They virtually exist everywhere and are applicable to everything within our world.

__ Groupings __ Section I - Graphic Organizer & Cooperative Learning used during instruction A timeline will be used by students in order to get their facts, dates, events, etc. straight throughout the process of formulating their Prezi. This graphic organizer will be crucial in order to succeed on this project, because without it, the student will certainly have trouble organizing from their own perspective as well as that of the true facts and opinions derived from their research and critical analysis of source, which I will provide to them.

Section II – Groups and Roles for Product This product will be completed in teams of two, although much of the work will be complete individually on the students' own time. Homework will have great meaning in this lesson because it will always involve them fixing, working on, and improving their final product so that they may obtain the highest possible marks for this assignment. The most crucial piece to this product and lesson is the content and connections made in the interview section of the podcast. Without content knowledge and the ability to work together in order to complete the interview portion of the podcast, the individual grades given by me will fail to meet par.

__ Differentiated Instruction __

__ MI Strategies __ Verbal-Linguistic: They can use articles and other readings to comprehend the tasks and can write a script for their Prezi. Logical/Mathematical: They can use data and statistics to interpret the answers and theories on urbanization and can lay out a specific organizer for their tasks. Visual/Spatial: These students can use fact sheets or drawings to understand the material. Bodily/Kinesthetic: Kinesthetic learners can move around the room and ask around for reflection and answers in terms of the tasks given. They can use noise and movement in their Prezi to keep them on track. Musical/Rhythmic: This task is perfect for musical and rhythmic learners because the Prezi is constantly moving, evolving, and using other artistic aspects in order to further convey the overarching message. Intrapersonal: These students can practice the recording by using it multiple times then reflecting upon their own work through self-checks. Interpersonal: Interpersonal students will be allowed to work in groups in order to fit their needs. Naturalist: Naturalist students can use happenings and sounds from outside of school within their Prezi to give them an edge in this task.

__ Modifications/Accommodations __ From IEP’s ( Individual Education Plan), 504’s, ELLIDEP (English Language Learning Instructional Delivery Education Plan) I will review student’s IEP, 504 or ELLIDEP and make appropriate modifications and accommodations.

Plan for accommodating absent students: I will set up individual meetings with an absent student. I will have them check my wiki page in order to catch up on readings or other in class activities. After they have completed these things they should come see me in order to brush up on anything that may be unclear or confusing. I will also have files for each student and I will allow them to take it home that night in order to put the new material back into context so that it makes sense to them.

Students will be given the opportunity to critically think, analyze, and present their viewpoints and research on the topic of urbanization and culture through the use of Prezi.

Gifted Students: I may challenge them by giving them some more challenging readings and primary source documents to analyze. After going through a tougher assignment such as one mentioned above, I would have them come meet with me in order to discuss the products connection to the modern era. They will be given a supplementary writing assignment to improve their critical writing and reading skills as well.

__ Teaching and Learning Sequence __ (Describe the teaching and learning process using all of the information from part I of the lesson plan) Take all the components and synthesize into a script of what you are doing as the teacher and what the learners are doing throughout the lesson. Need to use all the WHERETO’s. (3-5 pages)

Agenda:

Day 1: -Intro with hook (15) -Culture introduction (30) -Write about your own culture (10) -Trade and explain (10) -Prezi task intro and tutorial (15)

Day 2: -Re-intro for Prezi and task (10) -Research and production (50) -Feedback and tweaking (20)

Day 3: -Presentations (80) My classroom arrangement will be set up in twos. I will set it up this way because I believe that peer feedback, group work, and continuous reflection from a partner is critical in development and learning. This arrangement will be beneficial to all of the students and they will always be collaborating with each other in order to enhance learning. Students will understand that industrialization diversified where people live in the United States today. Students understand historical aspects of unity and diversity in the United States and the world, including Native American communities. Performance indicators: a, d. Culture is an integral cog in the economic and social machine that runs our world and nation today. The hook in this lesson will be a culture talk with the students to show them that culture actually does impact each and every one of them. They will be asked to write down three things that are staples to their culture or themselves and this will be compared with other students in the classroom. This activity will benefit them in their later research and development of a Prezi, because it will show them the true impact of culture on personal belief, decisions, and actions. Where, Why, What, Hook Tailors: Verbal, Kinesthetic, Naturalist, Interpersonal.

Students will know economy, culture, rituals, common practices, urbanization, urban examples of life, urban US areas, welfare, dependency, community (see content notes above). Students will use a time-line graphic organizer in order to produce an accurate sequence of cultural factors that influenced urbanization. they will begin to understand these terms and thoughts through a PowerPoint, done by me, that addresses each of the terms in a cursory sense. There will be brief writing assignments for the students throughout the PowerPoint so that I can figure out their level of understanding for the next test. I believe that they will benefit greatly from using the timeline organizer, because it rolls them directly into their Prezi production and presentation, which is timeline oriented. After my lecture and presentation is complete, I will give them a writing assignment, which can be done free hand or on the computer, which will ask them to write about their culture and their previous three points in depth, for ten minutes. This section of the class is critical to their overall success with the final product, because they will have to somehow incorporate their individual culture into their final Prezi. After they complete the writing of their cultural relevance and meaning, they will share with their partner for the Prezi, which they can choose, and begin to converse with them about what they see as similar, different, cool, or weird even. These conversation will be fruitful and hopefully will help to develop respect and comradery within the classroom community. Once these twenty minutes or so have passed, I will put the students into their groups and have them begin to put together a series of economic and cultural happenings and then show how they connect to urbanization. In groups of two, collaborate and create a short 2-3 minute Prezi that addresses the main points of the lesson, but also creates a sense of conflict, movement, or change throughout the period and revolution as a whole. Equip, Explore, Rethink, Revise, Tailors: Verbal, Kinesthetic, Naturalist, Interpersonal

Students will be able to synthesize how economic and cultural factors influenced urbanization. The students will begin to understand the main concepts through their intense research of culture and its effect on urbanization. I will provide them with articles and different handouts from the Internet so that they can gain perspective on culture and urbanization as one. These articles must be cited and addressed throughout their products, but outside research will be given for homework and will be expected in the final grading of their Prezi. Once they have begun their research in class I will give them about thirty minutes on their own, in silence other than talking to their other group members, so that they can begin to formulate slides and a game plan for their ultimate presentation and grading. This will help them in the end because it will provide the students with intraspective opportunities as well. Once they start to get enough research and time to think about their format, I will show them the tutorial video and have them begin formulation of the Prezi. Once they have begun this work they will be forced to meet with another group to review progress and ask questions about how they might improve their overall product. Once they have met with another group for ten minutes or so I will meet with them, either during class or after school, to give final recommendations. Then they will go home and formulate the final presentation, which will be presented the next class period for grading. Equip, Explore, Rethink, Revise, Tailors: Verbal, Kinesthetic, Naturalist, Interpersonal

Students will be asked to assess their own individual work and that of their team mates, but this will not be the entirety of the grading process. I will have the biggest say in the grading, but will conference with the class as well after each team presents so that there is a holistic view of the presentation and its producers. The teams will be graded on their ability to cover the material, themes, and major concepts accurately and thoroughly within the given time limits, three to five minutes. They will also be graded on the flow of the Prezi and whether or not it made people think deeply about the issues at hand. Students will be given checklists and sheets to grade on another, but I will have the ultimate say in whether or not the presentation was sufficient and pleasing to myself and the class as a whole. Evaluate, Tailors: Kinesthetic, Naturalist, Interpersonal, intrapersonal, logical.

__ Content Notes __ Students will know economy, culture, rituals, common practices, urbanization, urban examples of life, urban US areas, welfare, dependency, community -Economy is a difficult term to define, but the students will be asked to do much of this themselves. Economy is all facets of monetary, service, and production industries that help people obtain goods and services. The economy is not solely based on monetary worth as we often believe; it is dependent on the basic foundations of life such as labor, fairness, opportunity, and skill. Students will need to understand that economics is as diverse and complex as the society that we reside in and that it is the virtual underpinning of every actions on the planet today. Economies are absolutely crucial in the development and evolution of culture and will be ever-present in our great world, especially in urban centers where they are so close to home for each individual citizen. -Culture is a broad term that defines the ways in which certain people, groups, or entities act within society. It can refer to rituals, religion, food, education, and many other things, but most importantly it helps to define the individual. -Rituals are things that are performed regularly by a group of people or an individual and are a large part of what constructs culture and the meaning of life for groups of people in society. -Urbanization means that a group of people are moving into an urban or metropolitan area from somewhere that is not urban. It is usually a cultural and societal shift that cause urbanization to happen like it has throughout history. Economics, politics, diplomacy, and many other things are the main causes of urbanization, but sometimes people choose to move for no reason other than a scenery shift. In the Industrial Revolution, people moved into urban areas so that they could seek employment in the newly founded big businesses and industrial complexes of the rich. -__Modern Urban Centers__ are places that can be defined by their massive size, large populations, and large amounts of production. These areas are ever present in today's society and have the biggest impact of any type of community on the fabric of our society. Examples of these types of centers are Shanghai, Beijing, New York, LA, Mumbai, Mexico City, Jakarta, Moscow, Madrid, Rio de Janiero, Sao Paulo, and many others. The reason that these centers should be focused upon by our class is because they are the integral cog to our entire societal machine. Without these urban centers today, we would not have nearly as much production, transferal of ideas and thought, population, or healthcare for example. There are some bad things that also come with these massive entrenchments and some of these negative things are poverty, pollution, crime, questionable social decisions, drug trade, the fallacy of success and prosperity, etc. Modern urban centers are the lifeblood of modern society and I want the students to question why they are so important. -__Urban Plans__ are not implied within our society today, but they are things that I would define as ramifications of urbanization and urban centers in today's world. Urban plans may consist of where people live in urban areas, what they eat, how waste is disposed of, how they move around the urban area, public housing, etc. The way that we will look at urban plans in this classroom is through criticism and analysis. By analyzing the situations in urban areas we will assess whether or not they are working or failing. -__Public Housing__ is often categorized in a negative way. In its simple definition, public housing is housing that is simply payed for and provided by the government. People often take this term as a house or living center called a ghetto. That is a totally wrong and blasphemous categorization because ghetto has a totally opposite meaning from public housing. On the contrary, public housing has many benefits and disadvantages in our country, but we will examine the positive side of it and ask ourselves whether or not we should have it at all. By answering this tough question, students will be able to further understand the viewpoint of those who live in public housing. -Welfare is a system that helps the proletariat or the lower class to stay afloat and hopefully succeed at a later date. It is crucial to the construction of a society, because no matter what we think, trouble and sorrow can come at any time and there should always be help and aid when needed for those who are effected by disaster or hardships. Welfare is extremely controversial in the United States, but during the revolution is was virtually non-existent. People lived in squalor and poverty without any aid or hope for growth. Welfare today gives people the hope and ability to climb up the ladder of society and its classes, but back then, there was not much ascension to be had. -Dependency is a difficult word to define, but it basically is in reference to the fact that each person, business, or service is dependent upon all others like it. If we do not work together in life and in society as a whole, we as humans will fail. We need interaction and conference with others in order to maintain life and order in our world. This dependency theory per say was noticed following the industrial revolution when things began to fall apart and unravel from the inside out. Economies began to shrink after immense growth and the human condition was beginning to suffer. We will explore modern dependency theories and look into how to best deal with our foundational need. -Community is a word that we hear quite often in our society, but we rarely see productive ones. Building a community will be stressed in the classroom as well as in the local areas where the students reside, but the basic idea of teaching it in this unit is to show that rationality and compassion are essential if we want productive communities to live and thrive in.

__ Maine Common Core Teaching Standards for Initial Teacher Certification and Rationale __

Standard 1 – Learner Development. The teacher understands how learners grow and develop, recognizing that patterns of learning and development vary individually within and across the cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, and physical areas, and designs and implements developmentally appropriate and challenging learning experiences.

Clipboard: I will make sure that everything is laid out in an organized way so that each student with this learning style feels comfortable, prepared, and ready to learn at all time.

Microscope: I will always have opportunities for my students to critically think, analyze, and write about the topics at hand. These opportunities will come frequently and will make the microscope learner comfortable.

Puppy: This type of learner will be given chances to participate, but only if they choose to do so. I will work with them on an individual basis in order to provide them with a safe environment to learn in. Along with these ideas, I will maintain a safe and fair learning environment.

Beach Ball: I am willing to allow beach ball learners to get up, move around, and express their feelings in the ways that they see fit. I think by allowing these students to be who they are it will benefit the classroom as a whole as well.

Rationale: All of the learning styles discussed above will combine to create a productive and constantly changing classroom. The various accommodations will be made with the expectation that my students will work their hardest in order to reap the benefits from this tailoring.

Standard 6 - Assessment. The teacher understands and uses multiple methods of assessment to engage learners in their on growth, to monitor learner progress, and to guide the teacher's and learner's decision making.

Formative: Students will use the thumbs up, thumbs down method to tell me whether or not they are understanding the topic that is being covered. Using this method will allow for complete participation by each class member and it will also allow for me to see whether or not they are truly understanding the topic. From this exercise, I will figure out who is struggling by asking questions directed at each one of them. After this period of time I will probably give time for them to come up and ask me questions individually or for us to answer questions as a class.

Summative: Prezi will be used to show the clash between culture and the urban society: Prezi will be introduced to the class through the showing of examples and a tutorial video. From there, the class will break up into groups of two or three in order to create a Prezi that pulls together cultural and economic aspects while showing what urbanization truly means today and back in the industrial period, because it is very very different. They will be asked to research cultures present in both time periods for example, Chinese, African American, etc. These Prezi should show some sort of controversy, struggle, or issue between the two major themes because that is the basis of urban centers and urbanization. These students will be expected to include some of their own culture and how they think that they would fit into an urban area. they should include examples and scenarios from their own life or the lives of their friends, family, etc. who may have had these experiences previously. These Prezi will be graded on effort, preparedness, quality, and overall presentation of facts and theories.

Rationale: By using these different sorts of assessment I am benefiting my students as well as myself. Through differentiation, I am creating the best learning environment possible and providing my students with varied ways of learning. All of these different assessments and methods will allow for us to grow as a class and will also allow for individual growth in the students.

Standard 7 - Planning Instruction. The teacher plans instruction that supports every student in meeting rigorous learning goals by drawing upon knowledge of content areas, curriculum, cross -disciplinary skills, and pedagogy, as well as knowledge of learners and the community context.

Content Knowledge: See content notes

MLR or CCSS: Maine Learning Results Content Area: Social Studies Stadard Label: E; History Standard: E2; Individual, cultural, international and global connections in history Grade Level Span: Grade 9-Diploma; "Development of the Industrial United States, 1865-1914" Performance indicators: a, d
 * Students understand historical aspects of unity and diversity in the United States and the world, including Native American communities.

Facet: Explanation

Rationale: This lesson is going to meet the MLR Standards because it addresses connections to the past and the present as well as a diverse range of topics that connect back to my enduring understand, which are derived straight from the MLR 9-diploma Standards.

Standard 8 - Instructional Strategies. The teacher understands and uses a variety of instructional strategies to encourage learners to develop deep understanding of content areas and their connections, and to build skills to apply knowledge in meaningful ways.

MI Strategies: Kinesthetic, Naturalist, Interpersonal, intrapersonal, logical.

Type II Technology: My type II technology is called Prezi. Prezi is PowerPoint on steroids if you have ever used that version of presentation before. Basically, the Prezi is a slideshow that moves and flows in different ways than other presentation formats. It can be used to present at a massive news conference or in a classroom, and that is why I am having my students use it in my classroom. It can be considered a type II technology because of its awesome capabilities. Prezi is capable of moving information around, playing its own slides off of others in the presentation, and all while creating a sense of flow and questioning within the entire flick. Students will benefit from the use of this technology because it will allow them to be as concrete or abstract as they choose and it will only aid them further in developing a train of thought and processing ability. Students will be given the opportunity to critically think, analyze, and present their viewpoints and research on the topic of urbanization and culture through the use of Prezi.

Rationale: Each student will be able to display their knowledge critically and they will all be able to master the tasks that I give them, because differentiation will be used in order to play off of each one of their strengths while also attempting to improve their deficit ridden areas.

__NETS STANDARDS FOR TEACHERS__ 1. Facilitates and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity. Teachers use their knowledge of subject matter, teaching and learning, and technology to facilitate experiences that advance student learning, creativity, and innovation in both face-to-face and virtual environments. a. Promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness

b. Engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources

c. Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes

d. Model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments

Rationale: Through the use of different media I will promote and support creative outlets and assignments for my students. They will be exploring real world issues through the use of technology by constantly creating connections between issues or topics in class and their own lives outside of the educational system. Reflection is the most important piece of my philosophy for my students because without reflection, one can never change, fix, or solve the issues presented to them. My students will be able to reflect, change, and ultimately benefit from my classes and lessons.

2. Design and Develop Digital Age Learning Experiences and Assessments. Teachers design, develop, and evaluate authentic learning experiences and assessment incorporating contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context and to develop knowledge, skills, and attitudes identified in the NETS-S. a. Design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity

b. Develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress

c. Customize and personalize learning activities to address students’ diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources

d. Provide students with multiple and varied formative and summative assessments aligned with content and technology standards and use resulting data to inform learning and teaching

Rationale: Students will constantly be reacting to, using, and working with technology in order to broaden their academic success. They will be forever impacted by what they learn in my classes because it will stick in their brains, because of the use of technology and critical reflection. ||  ||   || About · Blog · [|Pricing] · Privacy · Terms · [|**Support**] · [|**Upgrade**] Contributions to http://edu221spring11class.wikispaces.com are licensed under a [|Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 3.0 License].
