Prompt: How are place, language, and history intertwined in the Wisdom Sits in Places reading, among Western Apache people? And why do you think Western Apache people choose to tell their history in such a place-based manner? What's so important about place, anyways?We also need to write a response of below answers.Place, language, and history are intertwined in the Wisdom Sits in Places reading among Western Apache people because there are so many place-names for nature such as grass, mountains, etc. It is a way for them to tell their history and it is a big part of their language. It has been stated that place-names are very important because it is the "words of the ancestors" meaning it is sacred since their past relatives have given them their land and raised them enough that it has kept them alive for so many years. Also, it is intertwined because in order for them to talk about place it would require them to tell history about that place which would require them to use their unique place-name language. Western Apache people chose to tell their history in such a place-based manner because using it is very significant since they tell a story that includes a certain place, especially since they do not have libraries or a way to record stuff they will have to remember the scenery. For example, it was stated that when an Apache person says the names of the place-names, they will look back at a specific story and remember the place that is attached to that particular story. Apache people also use stories to fix another person's stories and remind them of how it actually went without having to go against their ways of not respecting people's right to independence, whereas non-Apache people will do it in a blunt or overbearing way. Place is so important because it reminds them of so many different things like to behave, worship the land, honor their ancestors, etc. This is why the Western Apache people are so proud of the land they have always been in for many generations, and they continue to tell history in such a place-based manner.

Benchmark - Creating a Standards-Based Lesson Plan Professional growth in developing effective lessons and lesson plans comes with practice. This assignment provides the opportunity to connect the multiple elements of lesson planning into a single document.For this benchmark, use the "COE Lesson Plan Template" to create a standards-based lesson plan for a K-8 grade level. Complete all sections of the lesson plan template. You may use previous work from this course as a starting point for this lesson plan, incorporating feedback received from your mentor teacher.Your lesson plan should include the following:Classroom and Student Factors/Grouping: Summarize the “Class Profile” and use this information to direct the differentiation throughout the lesson plan.National/State Learning Standards: May be based on the standard selected for the Topic 2 assignment.Specific Learning Target(s)/Objectives: Objective written in Topic 2 to inform this section may be used.Academic Language: List any vocabulary students will need to learn for full understanding of the lesson.Resources, Materials, Equipment, and Technology: Lesson must integrate digital tools and resources into the instruction and assessments.Anticipatory Set: Include pre-assessment or required knowledge student will need to be prepared to learn.Multiple Means of Representation: Include at least two of the models or strategies previously discussed, along with a thorough explanation of how the chosen model/strategy would apply to the lesson. The Topic 4 assignment may be used to inform this section.Multiple Means of Engagement: Topic 5 assignment may be used to inform this section. Specify how instruction would be adapted to diverse students, based on an understanding of how elementary students differ in their development and approaches to learning. Multiple Means of Expression: Include formative and summative assessments to plan, evaluate, and strengthen your instruction. Include technology resources in at least one assessment. Label each assessment as formative or summative as indicated in the lesson plan template. Extension Activity and/or Homework: Topic 5 assignment may be used to inform this section.Rationale/Reflection: In 250-500 words, answer the following questions:How do the instructional models you chose for the lesson meet the diverse learning needs of the students on the "Class Profile"?How does the instruction and assessment meet the developmental needs of students and strengthen future instructional decisions?How do the technological resources you selected engage students and support your assessment practices?Support your reflection with 2-3 resources.Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.Resources Topic 2: In Georgia the standard are called Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) and they can be found at https://www.georgiastandards.org/Georgia-Standards . The grade level in which I am currently interested in is Kindergarten, Math. For the standard in which I am considering is K.CC which covers counting and cardinality. Students must first understand counting and understand the relationship between numbers to have a strong foundation.

The answers to the following questions can be used as a basis for parts of your Project submission. Keep these questions in mind as you continue to learn about the artifact of human creative expression that you chose to analyze. After thinking about the two to three artifacts you were interested in at the end of learning block, choose one artifact that you will plan to study further during this course and use as the focus for your two projects. Compile your responses in a Word document, being sure to answer each of the five questions below, before submitting your work. Identify your chosen artifact.  Describe the artifact in detail using any applicable senses mentioned in the overview. What are the elements of the artifact that you believe are most important to how you experience it? Does the choice of medium impact your experience? State your opinion on what you believe is the purpose of this artifact and the success of the creator in achieving the purpose. Discuss how the artifact reflects the culture (or context) in which it exists. Be sure to address what aspects of culture have relevance for this artifact: politics, history, religion, social perceptions, technology, media, education, and so on. In other words, how do the artifact and its culture interrelate Rubric Attached
