1. Make a phone call to call out sick at work
ReplyDeleteThe goal is for students to be able to do something after practicing in class. If they can do it, we know they have "learned" it. But we cannot measure if they have learned it, without seeing/hearing them "do" it.
ReplyDeleteExactly right! Thanks Lizz!
ReplyDeleteIs it cheating if I answer since this is the comment I've made most frequently on lesson plans?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, the goals are about what students will be able to do (or will be able to improve at doing) as a result of having attended and participated in the class. The activities in the lesson plan are the means to that end.
