Lesson 1: Blog Phase 1- Plans Instruction

My goals and objectives are clearly stated within the lesson plan. I used the ABCD technique to help in creating and checking the effectiveness of my goals and objectives. A- Audience, being the student. B- Behavior, which in the case of my first objective would be showing the components of a habitat and explaining. Behavior for my second objective would be demonstrating their understanding. C- Condition, would be the creation of the diorama for my first objective, and creating a specific animal's habitat for the second. Finally, D- Degree, which is all three for the first one and at least one animal's habitat for the second objective.

The lesson objectives make the expectations clear for students, but not too complicated or difficult to accomplish. They also include multiple ways to demonstrate understanding of the content. The goals are attainable and fit the lesson very well, making them great objectives for students to strive for.

The state standards require the comparison of habitats, which takes place in the creation of their diorama which is a part of the standards, and listening to other children explain how they met the goals required of them. The second state standard on habitats requires the knowledge of how animals and plants effect each other within a habitat, which is covered by the third lesson objective about discussing habitat relations and interactions.
