TO DO: Read chapter 8 in your book Look at the assessment link on the left Bring unit 1 Be ready to discuss unit 2

Accomodating students with special needs: [] [] []
 * Help with Unit 1 **

Difference between outcomes, objectives, and activities: [] [] To make sure your lesson plan will teach exactly what you want it to; you need to develop clear and specific objectives. Please note that objectives should not be activities that will be used in the lesson plan. They should instead be the learning outcomes of those activities. As an example, if you wanted to teach your class how to add 2 + 3, your objective may be that "the students will know how to add 2 + 3" or more specifically "the students will demonstrate how to add 2 + 3." Objectives should also be directly measurable. In other words, make sure you will be able to tell whether these objectives were met or not. To make objectives more meaningful, you may want to include both broad/unit and narrow/lesson objectives. The broad/unit objectives would be more like goals and include the overall goal of the lesson plan, i.e. to gain familiarity with adding two numbers together. The specific lesson objectives would be more like the one listed above, i.e. "the students will demonstrate how to add the numbers 2 and 3 together." []
