Planned Lesson Activities

Name, Purpose & Rationale of Lesson
Why is this lesson important? What has already
happened in this classroom surrounding the
subject you will be teaching? What do students
already know? Why are you going to teach this
topic now? What instructional strategy will
you be using? Why did you choose this
specific instructional strategy?
Approx. Time and Materials/Procedures

How long do you expect the activity to last and
what materials will you need? What do you need
to collect, prepare, reserve, set-up, etc. ahead of
time?
Pre-Assessment
How will you pre-assess students knowledge of
the topic to be covered? Describe both formal
and informal ways you will assess their knowledge
Anticipatory

and statements by the teacher to
Procedures/Instructional Input/Learning
Chunks/Scaffolding for Learning (this is the
largest part of your lesson plan)
Basics of Relationships.
This lesson is an introduction into the unit. It is
content / lecture heavy but incorporates
activities that allow for personal connect. This
lesson is in succession to a lesson about
personality traits. It helps affirm the idea that
perspective and individuality are valuable. It
also helps to understand different personality
traits when considering building and
maintaining relationships.
It is significant in teen choices because young
adults have the autonomy to pick the
relationships they pursue. Students need to
understand the impact of relationships and also
effective ways to build and maintain
relationships.
The methodology is broken up into six different
teaching methods, but the majority of it is
lecture. This is because there is a lot of material
to cover in order to set a foundation for the
following lessons in the unit.
(90 minutes)
Teacher Materials: Poem handouts, PowerPoint
Lecture, Role-playing cards
Student Materials: Pencil, Paper, Word processor
for homework
My pre-assessment will be an online survey
through googleforms & google classrooms. It will
be due the night before class.
What three characteristics make a good
boyfriend/girlfriend?
Parent?
Best friend?
Teacher?
Boss
The pre-assessment would be to go over some
of the responses in the googleform and talk
about the trends and the differences between
these relationships and their expectations.
Anticipatory set (7 minutes)

- GoogleDocs results & short debriefing
- Ask students if they would like to learn

Closure is used:
Read My Bio-Poem (2 minutes)

This will tie their previous assignment back to
myself and will help solidify how dynamic people
are. Although I have a professional Teacher
relationship with my students, my bio-poem will
show them I also have a family, goals and
hobbies.
Differentiation/Modifications/Adaptations/Ac
commodations To modify: If the activity is too
advanced for a child, how will you modify it so
Modification

Page 5

that they can be successful?
To extend: If the activity is too easy for a child,
how will you extend it to develop their emerging
skills?
song lyrics from four different (appropriate)

songs. They can create a flip chart instead of a
haiku for someone they care about, using
images. on the flap they will place images that
remind them of the person they chose and a
description of why on the inside of the flap.
-instead of role-playing
Students can find one interaction from a
television show (appropriate content & length)
and explain what the characters did will or could
have done better on.
Adaptation
- Instead of poems
Students can create a Nutrition label that
makes up the traits and qualities of someone
they care about.

response (based on rubric) in the
comment section of youtube
2-Make a 2-minute video response to the
TedEd speaker
3-Make the googleForm survey and report
findings
-Instead of role-play
Students will watch a video about Rhesus
Monkeys experiment and bonding.
They will synthesis a plan, using the scientific
method to hypothetically conduct their own
similar experiment if they were psychologists.
They will propose the experiment and
hypothesize to the class and relate it back to the
unit lesson of Relationships and Support
systems.
Assessment/Pre-Post/On-going
How will you know if students met the learning
targets? Review each learning target and
determine the assessment that met that target.
Can the students answer your inquiry questions?
Write a description of what you were looking for in
each assessment.
At the end of the week the students will turn in

an essay describing three people they choose to
be part of their support system. The essay is an
overarching topic and requires them to attain
knowledge about healthy relationships,
communications and intrapersonal /
interpersonal connections. The students will
have to choose three people - describe the
characteristics that make them the chosen
Page 6

person a good choice explain how they
would confide in them and what they would say
to let the chosen person know.
The students will role-play communication styles
between a variety of relationship types. Having
covered effective communication tactics in
lecture, they will be able to use that knowledge
to model a positive interaction in that scenario.
The poem will show that students have learned
how interpersonal and intrapersonal
relationships are connected. They will write
about characteristics they see in themselves
and also someone special to them. It will also
solidify the personal connection they created to
the topic.
