I scaffold choice-board unit performance tasks throughout the year and towards the last few units students are challenged to push themselves. I look forward to developing a unit surrounding social transformations in the United States, with a focus on scientific inquiry, the shift to a technological economy, impact of mass media and expansion of civil rights. The unit will be focusing on the following learning targets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-Following World War II, the United States experienced a struggle for racial and gender equality and the extension of civil rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-The postwar economic boom and advances in science and technology, produced changes in American life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-Political debates focused on the extent of the role of government in the economy, environmental protection, social welfare and national security<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Processes I will use to Implement CBCI in the Unit Plan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will identify essential key concepts for students to learn, and the students will choose one main concept to focus their project on <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will use their own pre-assessment data to guide their learning <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will write their own essential questions that their classmates will use to peer-grade<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The multi-element choice board will include options that appeal to multiple intelligences\/learning styles  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choice board options will be the same for all students, however, the information used to respond to the prompts and demonstrate comprehension will be differentiated for students who are ELL, Gifted, have an IEP in place, are in an honors level-course, or require other individualized adjustments <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All materials will be provided to students and will include graphics, videos, websites, textbook resources, Google Slide notes, and primary sources<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will reflect before, during, and after the assignment <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will use a strengths finder identifier to help them in choosing the best choice board option for their specific strengths<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will reflect daily on their comprehension and skillset demonstrating that comprehension <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Thank you <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DuchessSchool?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DuchessSchool<\/a> for hosting a wicked collab day for concept based planning !
