Here is a general idea of how a Unit is structured
Day 1
|
- As student complete the pre-assessment, students individually select their learning preference to pre-load the vocabulary, concepts, or equations common to all student needs.
- Close with a whole group discussion of the new unit, met and unmet expectations for today, and expectations for the next day.
Day 2 (Day 2, 3, 4 are interchangeable depending on the content and need for discover or instruction.)
|
- Through out the class I call small groups of students to briefly work with me at the table on skills covered in the daily lesson or to prepare for the next days activity. The small groups share strengths or weaknesses as revealed by the pre-assessment or daily assessment.
- Students complete a form of student output: notes, concept map, practice, student created video, online class collaboration, activity, or lab.
- Students that do not complete the daily expectation of the "I will" statement have homework.
- Close with a whole group discussion of the daily topic, met and unmet expectations for today, and expectations for the next day.

Day 4 (Day 2, 3, 4 are interchangeable depending on the content and need for discover or instruction.)
|
- I call small groups of students to briefly work with me at the table on skills assessed in the lecture.
- Students that do not complete the daily expectation of the "I will" statement have homework.
- Close with a whole group discussion of the daily topic, met and unmet expectations for today, and expectations for the next day.
