4. Teacher will monitor game and answer an questions students might have 5. CLOSURE: Students will take the unit assessments (attached) independently to demonstrate mastery of content F. Assessment: What will you use to measure student understanding? I will use informal assessment through discussions and the review worksheet along with a formal assessment of a unit exam to measure student understanding. Explain how you will know students understand the concepts from the lesson. I will know students understand these concepts from the unit when they can complete the unit assessment with 80% accuracy. G. Reflection: 1. Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for you to teach? I think the whole lesson will be easiest to teach. This is a review lesson in which students are already familiar with the content. 2. Which part will be most challenging for you to teach? I think the most challenging part of the lesson is going to be connecting with students who still dont understand the concepts. This is the final day and a unit assessment will be given so making sure students do well might be a little stressful. 3. How will you follow up or extend this lesson? Points of this unit will be touched on during other units and in their 4th grade year when economics and money is discussed again. 4. What will you do for students who dont grasp the concepts? I will try my best to spend some one-on-one time with students who still dont understand the concept, but by this time, they should have a good grasp on the concepts that were taught. 5. Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to change? I dont think any part of this lesson needs to be changed. Of course there are many strategies that can be used to review a unit, but I think the layout of this lesson is easy and engaging for students. 6. When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most difficult part?
