Plan

Pay attention to the R-words to activate the brain for learning!

1. Objective (Rigor) - SMART and should be visible on your board daily.

Identify the important key factors leading up to the Texas becoming the Republic of Texas.

2. Opening (Retrieval) – How will you "hook" your students into the lesson--at both the
thinking and emotional level?

 What will you do to open the lesson to motivate and engage the students’ interest in the
content?
 How will you help students make connections to prior knowledge?
 How will you identify and present your essential questions, Central focus, and Learning
Targets (I CAN statements)?
 How will you identify / teach / assess language demands?
 How will you introduce language supports?

 Is your opening congruent to the objective?

Hook activity: Have students reenact what it was like for Texas when they were under the leadership of
Mexico and start an open discussion of the how they feel and what would be their response to the
situation.

3. Teacher Input (Relevance) – What information is needed for the students to gain the
knowledge/skill in the objective? (Be sure you have done a task analysis to break the
information/skill into small manageable steps). How will you use strategies, technology,
learning styles? What vocabulary and skills do the students need to master the material? Are
the strategies you plan to use congruent to the objective?
Review and build a sequence of events of the leading to the Republic of Texas. I will accomplish that
by creating open learning environment by discussing in groups the sequence of events leading to the
Republic of Texas

 Model (Routing) – Outline your I DO activities. Be sure to model strategies and academic language
supports needed.

 Guided Practice – Students demonstrate a grasp of new learning under the teacher’s
direct supervision. The teacher moves around the room to provide individual remediation as
needed. “Praise, prompt, and leave” is an excellent strategy to use. Outline your WE DO activities.
Be sure to incorporate strategies and academic language supports that are needed.

 Independent Practice (Retaining/Rehearsing) – Students demonstrate an independent
application of new skill. Outline your YOU DO activities. Students demonstrate an independent
application of new skill. Be sure to praise and assess strategies and academic language supports
that are being used.
Students create an oral presentation of the sequence of events leading to the Republic of Texas.
Accommodation(s)-
1. One on One Assistance for those struggling with comprehension
2. Peer Buddy
3. Read questions outload on assignments with complex questions.
Modification(s)-
1. Provide vocabulary words on power point instead of making them look up definition
2. Review tests the day before they take it.
3. Reduce class work to allow more time in class to work and master the concept.

 Check for Understanding (Recognizing) – Practice doesn't make perfect; it makes

permanent. So, make sure the students understand how to proceed before moving to the practice
phase of the lesson. You may need to stop and reteach, so students practice correctly. How do
you plan to assess understanding? What HOTQs will you ask? List at least 3

Personal assets: Understanding of Texas before and after separating from Mexico.
Cultural assets: How did Texas culture change due to the separation.
Community assets: How does this affect them today living in Texas

 How will you check for understanding or reteach?

1. Quiz
2. Quiz
4. Assessment the teacher
– How will wewithknow
items that
you don’t understand
the students have individually mastered
3. I don’t get it cards, in each group place cards for students to write down what they didn’t get in the lesson and I

Whatitevidence will be collected? What will be an acceptable score? What
at the beginning of the next class.
evidence will be collected to demonstrate mastery of language demands?
Assessment of your TEK
Formative: Embedded Assessments
Summative: Performance Task
Assessment of your language demands:
Formative: Oral Presentation
Summative: Portfolios

5. Resources - What materials will you need for a successful lesson?

Textbooks, Maps, Graphic Organizers, Books of Texas History and Republic of Texas. Articles and Material on
battles of Texas with Mexico. Map pencils, crayons, paper, and construction paper.

6. Closure (Re-exposure) – How will you have the students end the lesson/reflect upon what
was learned?
Closure Activity: In groups they would discuss and do 3-2-1 (Three things they learned, 2 questions they have,
and one thing they want the instructor to know.)
