This assignment builds upon your instructional objectives written in Module 1 and your lesson plan written in Module 3. Do not submit this assignment until you have a good grasp of writing instructional objectives and lesson plans based upon a passing score on the "Writing Instructional Objectives" and "Lesson Plan" assignments.

Using the lesson plan you completed in Module 3, add two new sections to the plan--formative assessment and summative assessment. Come up with a plan for both- this should include your plan for formative and summative assessments, the written instructions to students, and the actual assessment artifacts. For example, if you plan on having students write an essay, you must include the writing prompt and the rubric you will use to score the assignment.

Remember that because some of your learning objectives refer to higher-order thinking skills, your assessment plan must provide a way to assess those skills.

Module 3 lesson plan that i came up with:

State Academic Standards and Student Learning Objectives

• Standards: Align with Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Mathematics, Grade 4.
• Objectives:

1. Students will utilize addition and subtraction skills to tackle word problems that encompass whole numbers, enhancing their problem-solving abilities.
2. Students will employ multiplication techniques to address complex, multi-step problems that involve whole numbers, fostering critical thinking and analytical skills.
3. Students will critically analyze and distinguish between various mathematical operations in order to effectively solve a range of given problems, enhancing their mathematical reasoning and decision-making skills.
4. Students will assess and provide rationale for the problem-solving strategies they employ, demonstrating a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and logical reasoning.
5. Students will design and solve real-world scenarios that necessitate the application of mathematical operations, enhancing their ability to apply mathematical concepts to practical situations and develop a deeper understanding of the relevance of mathematics in everyday life.

Learning Theory and Lesson Cycle

• Learning Theory: By encouraging students to build their knowledge and meaning through hands-on experiences, problem-solving, and critical thinking, constructivism empowers learners to take ownership of their learning process.
• Lesson Cycle: 5E Model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate).

Lesson Warm-Up

• Activity: Engage in rapid mental arithmetic exercises that focus on addition, subtraction, and multiplication. These challenges require you to swiftly perform calculations in your mind, enhancing your mathematical skills and mental agility.

Instructional Strategies

• High-Yield Strategies: Cooperative Learning and Questioning.
• Teacher Behavior: Group discussions can be facilitated by offering guidance, providing practical examples, and encouraging active participation.
• Student Behavior: Working together in teams, solving exercises, and participating in classroom conversations.
• Questions: What led you to that conclusion? Have you considered alternative methods to resolve this issue?

Materials Needed

• Math manipulatives (counters, number lines)
• Whiteboard and markers
• Problem cards for group activities

Homework/Reinforcement

• Homework: This practice worksheet contains a range of problems with different levels of difficulty.
• Reinforcement: Engage in interactive math activities centered around the day's instructional content on the internet.

Module 1 objectives:

Analyze: analyze, differentiate, compare

Evaluate: evaluate, assess, critique

Create: create, design, construct

Objectives:

1.Applyaddition and subtraction strategies to solve word problems involving whole numbers. (Apply) 2.Usemultiplication to solve multi-step problems involving whole numbers. (Apply)

3.Analyzeanddifferentiatebetween addition and subtraction strategies to determine which operation is appropriate for solving a given problem. (Analyze)

4.Evaluatethe effectiveness of various problem-solving strategies and justify their choices. (Evaluate)

5.Createreal-world scenarios that require the use of addition, subtraction, and multiplication to solve mathematical problems. (Create)

The objectives outlined for a 4th-grade math lesson are in alignment with state standards and Bloom's Taxonomy, guaranteeing a thorough method for teaching and evaluating student progress. By integrating verbs from different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy, the objectives stimulate critical thinking abilities and prompt students to utilize mathematical principles in practical situations. This methodical lesson planning strategy supports efficient instruction, fosters student involvement, and enhances academic success in mathematics.
