LESSON PLAN FORMAT

Name: Kendra Walter


Grade Level: 7th grade
School: James Valley Christian
Date: April 10, 2016
Time: 10:25-11:10

Reflection from prior lesson: Last lesson the students created the outline for their research paper. The students didn’t
have problems creating/editing the outline but many of them struggled with what information to put into their
outline.

Lesson Goal(s) / Standards:


 7.ET.OC.3 Students Demonstrate Skills In Utilizing Technological Systems.
 7.ET.CC.1 Students Use Technology To Communicate With Others.

Lesson Objectives:
 Students will continue using the internet and books to find the necessary information for their research
paper. (partnered with English class) (continued)

Materials Needed: Microsoft Word, 16 Computers, students will bring their own notecards, research paper packets
provided by the English teacher

Contextual Factors/ Learner Characteristics:


 This class meets every other day during the first half of the block. The class consists of 16 students, 4
males and 12 females. There are no students with an IEP in this section. These students have not had any
formal typing classes yet. Students have a wide range of typing speed. Students work on typing the sections
at their own pace. The students will soon be assigned typing assignments to be completed at home
however, they are only working on typing during class as they adjust to proper typing posture.

A. The Lesson

1. Introduction (5 minutes)
 Remind students that they will need all of their information for their research paper with them. If
they forgot anything, they need to get it from their locker. Students should also log onto their
computer and open up a blank Word document. (5 min)

2. Content Delivery (35 minutes)


 For the next couple class periods, we will be working with the English teacher to help students
write their research paper. The students will be able to use the whole class period to continue work
on their research paper. We won’t be going over anything as a large group at their own pace. (35
min)
3. Closure (5 min)
 Discuss with students their schedule for their research paper and make sure they understand what
is due for the next class period. (5 min)

B. Assessments Used
 Students will be receiving grades for the research paper in the English classroom. However, we
may give them a couple participation grades based upon whether they use their time wisely in our
classroom. (continued)

C. Differentiated Instruction
 As the class is paced for the average speed of the class, the faster ones are able to continue
increasing their speed by working as fast as they can and also moving on to sections that others
may not be able to get to.
 Students who may be struggling as fast as the others are to complete the assignment in the class
period and will get the extra practice later with at-home typing assignments.
 Students will have extra time to get help with any questions they might have during this block and
during their English class.

D. Resources
 Textbook
 English packet (provided to the students by the English teacher)
