I am posting my first attempt at an overview unit sketch using Understanding by Design theory. This lesson is on Digital Citizenship. Let me know what you think.
Here is my question to you Jamie: Should you have essential questions in stage 1? Essential questions will help students know where the learning is heading and it is an understanding goal. But hey, what do I know. I might be wrong lol. We are barely learning about UbD.
Ok, here it is. Stage 1: I thought you had a great topic that would work for any grade level. Maybe including essential questions that students will keep considering throughout the lessons would help to keep the desired results in mind. Questions that are open ended can help in discussion and drive their thinking skills. Stage 3: I like how you provided a variety of technology tools and activities for students to learn Digital Citizenship. Your did a great job overall.:0)
It looks fabulous, I really can't think of anything at this time to comment on. Everything I started to write I had to erase because I would read your plan again and notice that piece already incorporated (lol). Great job!
Regarding the comments on including the essential questions in stage 1, I didn't think the essential questions needed to be written out (on this from) just considered.Please correct me if I am wrong.
I think thats right, maybe consider essential questions on this sketch and list them on the next lesson 2.7. but I'm still learning so I hope that sounds right.

ReplyDeleteWell done Jamie, I included some comments directly on the PDF. I just noticed Myrna's response... I had made a comment about that too.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see the comments or get a notification about them. Hmm.

ReplyDeleteYour plan is solid. I don't think I was quite as thorough with mine.

ReplyDeleteI thought I had made comments for you, didn't I? Or was it through emails? You know, we all like your work.
