Blended Learning Lesson Plan
You will take an hour and write a lesson plan for a blended learning lesson which will include digital content and small group instruction. Please look at your content for the rest of this school year to see where you will implement this lesson. Add the date when you will implement your blended learning lesson to the google document so that a member of the leadership team can plan to drop by your classroom at the appropriate time.
While planning your blended learning lesson remember that you have classroom assistance available to you. Kelly Coban or Cinday Farmer can assist with classroom activities or lead a station. Paula Doe, our digital lab monitor, can provide assistance with monitoring students while they work at the digital content station.
