I will use the student discussions and class participation to measure understanding.

Explain how you will know students understand the concepts from the lesson.I will know that students understand the concepts through discussion and if the student

is able to discuss the importance of these jobs with me and with their groups.

G. Reflection: (answers to assignment specific questions)1. Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for you to teach?

I think this whole lesson will be fairly easy.

2. Which part will be most challenging for you to teach?I dont think I would run into any big difficulties with this lesson.

3. How will you follow up or extend this lesson?I would want to have students write a story about one of the helpful jobs and why it

is important.

4. What will you do for students who dont grasp the concepts?I would pull a few students at a time to review the concept and allow more one-

on-one time for the students who may need the additional help.

5. Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to change?I think I would need to include more partner work (sometimes a peer can explain a

concept better than a teacher can.)

6. When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most difficult part?I think the most difficult part was finding how I wanted to word everything and what

kind of dialogue I would use to explain the concepts.
