Unit Plan and Lesson Plan

When developing the curriculum you are trying to implement it is

important to start on a large scale and then focus in on the supporting
details. A unit plan is design to choose broad topics that will be covered
over an extended period of time. In order to achieve the objective of the
unit plan an educator must break down how they intend to teach the
topic in lesson plans. Lesson plans are the daily lessons the educator will
use to scaffold information need to complete the objective of the unit
plan.
When I First created my unit plan on how the human body works I
broke down the lessons by first introducing how exercise affects the
body. First I taught the students how to take their pulse and how
different types of exercises affect the body. Then introducing other
components like heart health, CPR, muscular strength, muscular
endurance, and flexibility. To bring the unit to a close I created a lesson
that featured escape rooms. In this lesson I was able to check for
understanding by having the students answer health related questions
the were previously covered in earlier lessons. It is important that the
first lesson leads to the next lesson and all the information is able to be
related to each other to help paint the big picture of the unit plan.
