Use the
following scenario from The IRIS Center to complete the tasks below:
Jacob is
an active boy in the 4th grade who enjoys coming to school and
participates in sports after school. Jacob does well in most classes but has

Given vocabulary words, Jacob will define and use each in
a sentence.

475 Week 8 Assignment Benchmark- Language Arts Unit Plan
Details:
In the
first part of the practicum, spend 3 hours each in three reading classrooms (9
hours total), grades 4-8. It is suggested that these initial observations occur
during Topics 2-4. Analyze how instructors use strategies to ensure students’
understanding in the reading and writing components of the reading lessons.
Determine how these strategies will influence the second part of the practicum.
1.
Include both mainstream and language minority students.
2.
Two observations must be in different grade levels and one
observation must be in a Title 1 school.
3.
Choose a specific grade and concept from the Arizona language
arts academic standards.
In the
second part of the practicum (between Topics 5 and 6), select one of the
classrooms you observed and spend an additional 6 hours designing and teaching
a week-long (5 day) unit. For this unit use a single piece of text that
is appropriate for the grade level and language arts academic standards. A
poem, short story, newspaper article, or content area piece may serve as a
single text selection.
Create a
mini-lesson (15-30 minutes) to address each of the following areas related to
literacy development:
1.
Monday: Oral language and vocabulary
2.
Tuesday: Phonics, word patterns, and word analysis
3.
Wednesday: Fluency
4.
Thursday: Reading Comprehension
5.
Friday: Writing
Each
day’s mini-lesson should address an evaluation of learning that is objective
and measurable, and directly assesses the students’ achievement of the targeted
academic standards. Every lesson should have the following structure at a
minimum:
1.
Objective (linked to academic standards)
2.
Materials (include copies of all materials to teach lesson)
3.
Procedure (a step-by-step description of the lesson from
beginning to end)
4.
Assessment (a concrete, measurable way to assess the objective)
Each
mini-lesson should be a piece of the larger whole, not individual or
unconnected lessons. That is, lessons later in the week should build on lessons
from earlier in the week, and they should all reinforce and integrate skills
from the prior lessons in the weekly sequence.
The
remaining 5 hours of the practicum should be used for conferring with your
mentor teacher regarding your teaching, management, and engagement strategies,
as well as conducting an analysis of student learning. Use your assessment data
to formulate a plan to adjust your teaching to meet student needs. Utilize this
data and mentor teacher feedback to adjust your unit plan before submitting it
to the instructor and to LoudCloud.
Write a
1,500-1,750-word proacticum reflection that includes the following:
1.
A synopsis of your observations in the reading classrooms, and
how they influenced your Language Arts Unit Plan.
2.
A reflection on the language arts unit plan after you taught it.
What were its strengths and weaknesses? What would you change and why? What did
you learn about teaching from your mentor teacher? Include this reflection with
your unit plan.
Ask the
classroom teacher to complete the Classroom Teacher Evaluation Form. Include
it, your Language Arts Unit Plan, and the Practicum Reflection as the benchmark
assignment submission to the instructor. Attach the Practicum Placement Form
and Observation Record.
APA
format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
This
assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment
to become familiar with the expectations for completion.
You are
required to submit it to Turnitin.
Submit
the assignment to the instructor at the end of Topic 8.
Document
the hours and locations that you spend in the field on your Clinical Field
Experience Verification Form.
Submit
the Clinical Field Experience Verification Form with the last assignment by the
assignment due date. Directions for submitting can be found on the College of
Education site in the Student Success Center.
