2. State the primary outcome of the unit and identify five behavioral learning objectives for the lessons. Include one objective for each cognitive level - knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, and synthesis.

3. Identify and provide rationale for two or more technology resources to be used to meet the objectives.

4. Describe and provide rationale for three ways you plan to communicate the objectives and outcomes to students, parents, and the administration.
