- For each plan, identify and describe the following:

*Note: If you are not yet familiar with your state content standards or the Common Core standards, research these first and use them to address this item. - What assessment(s) are being used to give the teacher information regarding student learning and understanding? Will the teacher be able to know where all students are in relation to the learning goals from the assessments that are outlined in the plan? Be sure to consider formative and summative assessments (refer to the recommended readings if you need more information on formative and summative assessments).
*Note: Refer to examples and information from the Six Common Lesson Planning Pitfalls: Recommendations for Novice Educators within our justification and explanation as appropriate. - What are students asked to do? How do the activities in the lesson effectively engage and prepare students to meet the learning goals?
- What standards are being addressed? Are these appropriate standards for the course? Why or why not?
