UPLAN+10+Lessons

= **REFLECTION**= 1. How did you address the UPLAN rubric categories (RELEVANCE, ALIGNMENT, SCAFFOLDING, DIVERSITY, CONVENTIONS)? 2. How did your work on the collaborative unit shape your planning of this individual one?
 * When creating my unit plan I made sure to always keep these most important five factors in the forefront of my mind. I made sure my unit plan was not only relevant to state standards, but also relevant to the age group of students and their interests that I will be teaching it to. Again, I aligned my lesson objectives with the state standards and made sure each of my lessons connected to one another. Since each of my lessons clearly builds off one another, scaffolding came easily and I was able to create lessons based off my previous ones. Diversity of lesson plans, as well as honoring the diversity of the students in my classroom are both equally as important. I was sure to vary my lessons according to lecture, group work, individual work, etc...while keeping in mind the diversity of my students. Knowing that my unit plan could be passed over to a substitute teacher per say, I made sure to structure it in a way that was very organized and easy to follow and understand.

3. How did you incorporate feedback from your peers and from me?
 * Since we could actually implement our collaborative unit plan, it was easier to see what worked and what didn’t work. It helped in the creation of my individual plan in the sense that it made it more realistic.

throughout the construction of my unit plan. It is always easier for someone else with fresh eyes to catch your mistakes or offer you advice for something else that might work better.
 * I always made sure take into consideration all feedback I received
