Assignment

Details:

Using the grade, standards, and informational text you selected in Topic 1, create differentiated instructional activities and grouping structures for the students in the "Class Profile." The lesson plan should include verbal, nonverbal, and electronic media communication tools, as well as opportunities for active inquiry, collaboration, and supportive interaction.

Based on your selection, continue working on the "COE Lesson Plan Template" you began in Topic 1. Complete the following sections:

• Design a variety of instructional tasks to address students' needs and differences, including struggling readers.
• Utilize a variety of materials.
• Offer several assignment choices to the students based on their individual needs.

Include a 250-500 word rationale for making your choices.
