Clinical Field Experience C: Mini-Lesson Implementation

Clinical Field Experience C: Mini-Lesson Implementation

Allocate at least 4 hours in the field to support this field experience.

Part 1: Mini-Lesson Plan

Prior to going into your clinical field experience classroom this week, use the data received from the pre-assessment to complete the “Clinical Field Experience C: Science Mini-Lesson Plan” template. If applicable, integrate relevant health standards or learning into your lesson. This mini-lesson plan will be administered to the selected group of students to support instruction to meet the standards.

The “Science Mini-Lesson Plan” includes:

• Science standard and grade level
• Learning objectives
• Instructional strategy
• 100-150 word description of a science learning activity
• Formative assessment

Part 2: Mini-Lesson Plan Implementation

After completing the “Clinical Field Experience C: Science Mini-Lesson Plan,” share it with your mentor teacher for feedback. Revise the lesson plan based on the mentor teacher’s feedback.

Provided permission, teach the created lesson plan to the group of selected students. During your lesson, ensure you are answering questions from your students, asking questions that support critical thinking and problem solving, and observing the understanding from each student (this might require formative assessments before, during, and after the lesson to determine understanding).

If you are not able to implement the lesson, speak with your instructor for an alternate assignment.

Use any remaining field experience hours to speak with your mentor teacher and, provided permission, seek out opportunities to observe and/or assist your mentor teacher and/or work with a small group of students on instruction in the classroom.

Part 3: Reflection

In 250-500 words, reflect and discuss the process of using pre-assessment data to develop a lesson plan. Discuss the following:

• How does data support the developed instruction, selected strategies, and differentiation strategies to meet learning needs?
• What modifications supported the learning outcome?
• What considerations need to be made regarding ethical issues when using student personal, background, and learning data to inform instructional planning?

Submit the “Clinical Field Experience C: Science Mini-Lesson Plan” and reflection as one deliverable.

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.

This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.

Document the locations and hours you spend in the field on your Clinical Field Experience Verification Form.

Submit the Clinical Field Experience Verification Form to LoudCloud in the last topic.  Directions for submitting can be found on the College of Education site in the Student Success Center.

Science Unit Plan: Materials, Resources, and the Integration of Technology

The fourth step in planning a unit plan is to research and decide on the necessary materials and resources that create engagement through anticipatory sets and help to develop confidence as competent users of technology.

Part 1: Materials, Resources, and Technology

Complete the “Materials, Resources, and Technology” sections of the “Science Unit Plan.” Include appropriate and relevant materials, resources, and technology that successfully:

• Support students in chosen content, development of relevant skills, and encourage student engagement.
• Support diverse student needs and learning advancement.

The details of the “Science Unit Plan” will continue to be fully developed and revised throughout the duration of the course, culminating in a complete unit plan due in Topic 5.

Part 2: Reflection

In 250-500 words, summarize and reflect on how planning for materials, resources, and technology can create engagement and motivation during a lesson. How can you utilize informational resources to engage students and help develop their confidence as competent users of technology? How will you evaluate curriculum materials, school/district resources, student data to make sure you are using appropriate and relevant materials?

Support your reflection with at least two scholarly resources.

Submit the “Science Unit Plan” and reflection as one deliverable.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
