Instructional Strategies

List the instructional strategies that you intend to implement in your final unit plan of five sequential lessons.

There are quite a few of instructional strategies that I plan to use when creating my unit plan. First of all, for preparation I plan on using interactive discussions, mapping activities and possibly graphic organizers. Then, for guidance, I will implement journals, writing, graphic organizers and mapping, and connection questions for my students. Finally, for independence, I will use interactive discussions, and reflective writing. I am very eager to plan this unit, but I do fear that I will plan too much for only a 40-50 minute class period. However, hopefully, by utilizing these strategies, I will be able to plan critical as well as meaningful lessons.
