Part 2: Rationale
Chosen Strategies and Formative Assessments

My unit’s goal is to have students understand multiple parts of a number. Knowing what numbers go into a number is key but

learning what that actually means during expanded form can help them with fully understanding what that number means. I tried to

choose strategies that are kinesthetic, visual, and auditory all in one. Each day students will be getting up and moving around learning

number sense. Formative assessments will provide feedback with how the lesson is going and what the students are getting from my

lessons. The goal of the formative assessments is to steer the next lesson in a way that works for the students and their current

knowledge and understanding of a topic. If teachers can get that information it can help them plan for the next day or for future

activities and units.

Utilization of Peers

 Utilizing peer knowledge allows teachers to talk about shared challenges, get creative, and utilize one another’s resource

(Malone, 2015). This can help teachers pull off these big units that require multiple materials or additional adults. I could visualize

myself doing a unit like this with a partner teacher so we can both pull resources, support one another, and bounce creative ideas off

one another. Asking peers for help or advice helps both you and the students so it is something that I plan on doing frequently as a

new teacher. The more teachers work together in these circumstances the better it is for students.
