As discussed in Chapter 3 of our text, most states are using the Common Core State Standards Initiative or Early Learning
Standards to
guide their teaching. Starting on page 5 of Chapter 3 of the text, the author
clearly outlines considerations that need to be made when planning curriculum
for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade students. Using these
considerations and either the Common Core Standards or the Early Learning
Standards for your state, choose one standard. You will need to develop a
lesson for teaching this standard to infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and
primary- grade children. It is required that you use the Lesson plan template to complete this portion of your
assignment. It is suggested that you utilize the Early
Childhood and Child Development: Lesson Plan Handbook as a guide for how to more
effectively plan this lesson.
Your lesson plan should include:
- A title page.
- An introductory paragraph that describes the physical environment of the classroom where the lesson will be taught.
- All aspects of the lesson, using the lesson plan template provided. In addition to the completion of the template, please address the specific requirements listed below:
- Identify which Common Core Standard or Early Learning Standard you will address and which National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) standard is being covered (in the Standards section of the template).
- Within the differentiation section, clearly differentiate how you will modify the lesson for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade.
- A closing paragraph, following the completed template, that discusses which of the considerations mentioned in the text for planning curriculum for infants/toddlers, preschoolers, and primary-grade students you took into account when developing this lesson.
This assignment should be submitted as a two- to three-page document, not
including the title and reference page. Make sure to include at least one
scholarly source in addition to the course text to support your ideas; use APA formatting.
