larger unit of study?
- Focus on a logical/hierarchical As this is the first lesson in the series it will start students off by assessing
sequencing of skills (e.g., main ideas data on a basic level; determining it’s consistency when given a data

Objective(s)
- Choose your learning target(s) and
objective(s) based on the relevant
state learning standard(s).
- Write focused targets and
objectives that describe the specific
learning outcome (what students
should be able to do as a result of the
lesson).

observable and measurable terms
(e.g., ABCD+T).
