them.
Evidence of Mastery (Measurable):
 Include a copy of the lesson assessment.
 Provide exemplar student responses with the level of detail you expect to see.
 Assign value to each portion of the response
Students will write on an index card or other study tool, what the pledge means to them and why. They will also
write down two questions they have for future research.
