Week 3: 5 E Lesson Plan

From the curriculum support website, our group decided on focusing on the unit of Nutrition. (see project outline from week 2)

Task 4: 

What do we want the kids to do?

• Watch the video and
• Take down the important notes.
• To complete a worksheet based on the video (general and specific questions related to the topic)
• Class discussion of the answers to the worksheet focusing on analysis, elaboration of key ideas, justify their thoughts/answers/opinions and potential new ways of applying the content to their lives.

What are we asking the kids to give us back to show us that they understand their task?

• Students must also answer a quiz to illustrate their understanding of the video
•  Half page written response that ties the key ideas of the video content (scenario based, a news report) 

Webquest was downloaded for the next part of the lesson and a series of tasks were to be completed.

The 5E Lesson Planning Model 

• The 5 E model for designing and  sequencing learning is just one curriculum method supporting constructivist teaching and learning.
