<strong>EED</strong> <strong>475</strong> <strong>Week</strong> 8 <strong>Assignment</strong> <strong>Benchmark</strong>- <strong>Language</strong> <strong>Arts</strong> <strong>Unit</strong> <strong>Plan</strong><br />
Details:<br />
In the first part of the practicum, spend 3 hours each in three reading classrooms (9 hours total), grades 4-8. It is<br />
suggested that these initial observations occur during Topics 2-4. Analyze how instructors use strategies to ensure<br />
students’ understanding in the reading and writing components of the reading lessons. Determine how these<br />
strategies will influence the second part of the practicum.<br />
1. Include both mainstream and language minority students.<br />
2. Two observations must be in different grade levels and one observation must be in a Title 1 school.<br />
3. Choose a specific grade and concept from the Arizona language arts academic standards.<br />
In the second part of the practicum (between Topics 5 and 6), select one of the classrooms you observed and spend<br />
an additional 6 hours designing and teaching a week-long (5 day) unit. For this unit use a single piece of text that is<br />
appropriate for the grade level and language arts academic standards. A poem, short story, newspaper article, or<br />
content area piece may serve as a single text selection.<br />
Create a mini-lesson (15-30 minutes) to address each of the following areas related to literacy development:<br />
1. Monday: Oral language and vocabulary<br />
2. Tuesday: Phonics, word patterns, and word analysis<br />
3. Wednesday: Fluency<br />
4. Thursday: Reading Comprehension<br />
5. Friday: Writing<br />
Each day’s mini-lesson should address an evaluation of learning that is objective and measurable, and directly<br />
assesses the students’ achievement of the targeted academic standards. Every lesson should have the following<br />
structure at a minimum:<br />
1. Objective (linked to academic standards)<br />
2. Materials (include copies of all materials to teach lesson)<br />
3. Procedure (a step-by-step description of the lesson from beginning to end)<br />
4. Assessment (a concrete, measurable way to assess the objective)<br />
Each mini-lesson should be a piece of the larger whole, not individual or unconnected lessons. That is, lessons later<br />
in the week should build on lessons from earlier in the week, and they should all reinforce and integrate skills from the<br />
prior lessons in the weekly sequence.<br />
The remaining 5 hours of the practicum should be used for conferring with your mentor teacher regarding your<br />
teaching, management, and engagement strategies, as well as conducting an analysis of student learning. Use your<br />
assessment data to formulate a plan to adjust your teaching to meet student needs. Utilize this data and mentor<br />
teacher feedback to adjust your unit plan before submitting it to the instructor and to LoudCloud.<br />
Write a 1,500-1,750-word proacticum reflection that includes the following:<br />
1. A synopsis of your observations in the reading classrooms, and how they influenced your <strong>Language</strong> <strong>Arts</strong><br />
<strong>Unit</strong> <strong>Plan</strong>.<br />
2. A reflection on the language arts unit plan after you taught it. What were its strengths and weaknesses?<br />
What would you change and why? What did you learn about teaching from your mentor teacher? Include this<br />
reflection with your unit plan.<br />
Ask the classroom teacher to complete the Classroom Teacher Evaluation Form. Include it, your <strong>Language</strong> <strong>Arts</strong> <strong>Unit</strong><br />
<strong>Plan</strong>, and the Practicum Reflection as the benchmark assignment submission to the instructor. Attach the Practicum<br />
Placement Form and Observation Record.<br />
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.<br />
This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the<br />
expectations for completion.
You are required to submit it to Turnitin.<br />
Submit the assignment to the instructor at the end of Topic 8.<br />
Document the hours and locations that you spend in the field on your Clinical Field Experience Verification Form.<br />
Submit the Clinical Field Experience Verification Form with the last assignment by the assignment due date.<br />
Directions for submitting can be found on the College of Education site in the Student Success Center.
