Directions: Your inquiry question should be concise and likely no more than 8-10 words. Your hypothesis should indicate what you expect students to be able to do after the lesson, and it should be able
to be evaluated based on your assessment plan. Note that Semester 3 requires an inquiry question that focuses on use of technology to support teaching and learning.

In the first lesson, students will patriciate in an informal pre-assessment that addresses their understanding of

of “Harrison Bergeron” and the short film “2081”. Students will work collaboratively to construct a full
paragraph that uses facts from both texts to show the similarities and differences between the two.
Throughout the unit, students will expand their written skills in increasing written length. The rough draft of the

Data will be compared from all formal and informal assessments after the conclusion of the unit. I will use this
data to both address my effectiveness at supporting all students to success and how collaborative efforts and
participation contributed to overall student success.
