Week 2 - Assignment

Common Core or Early Learning Standards Lesson Plan

Throughout Week Two you have had the opportunity to plan instruction for the students in Mrs. Ashland’s class. Now you will have the chance to use what you have learned about planning instruction from the discussion forums and apply it to a new situation.

As discussed in Chapter 3 of our text, most states are using the Common Core State Standards Initiative or Early Learning Standards to guide their teaching. Starting on page 5 of Chapter 3 of the text, the author clearly outlines considerations that need to be made when planning curriculum for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade students. Using these considerations and either the Common Core Standards or the Early Learning Standards for your state, choose one standard. You will need to develop a lesson for teaching this standard to infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary- grade children. It is required that you use the Lesson plan template to complete this portion of your assignment.  It is suggested that you utilize the Early Childhood and Child Development: Lesson Plan Handbook as a guide for how to more effectively plan this lesson.

Your lesson plan should include:

1. A title page. 

2. An introductory paragraph that describes the physical environment of the classroom where the lesson will be taught. 

3. All aspects of the lesson, using the lesson plan template provided. In addition to the completion of the template, please address the specific requirements listed below: 
• Identify which Common Core Standard or Early Learning Standard you will address and which National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) standard is being covered (in the Standards section of the template). 
• Within the differentiation section, clearly differentiate how you will modify the lesson for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade. 

4. A closing paragraph, following the completed template, that discusses which of the considerations mentioned in the text for planning curriculum for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade students you took into account when developing this lesson. 

This assignment should be submitted as a two- to three-page document, not including the title and reference page. Make sure to include at least one scholarly source in addition to the course text to support your ideas; use APA formatting.

Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.
