World Language Benchmarks

2.2.N.F.a

Describe the products needed to carry out daily routines and meet basic needs within a community, region, or culture in which the language is spoken (housing, stores, foods, transportation, health care, public services)

4.2.N.a

Identify basic target culture practices and compare them to one’s own

Deductive Reasoning

Or, telling them about the process of deforestation...

Giving examples...

And asking them to create their own example of deforestation in Michigan

Students will acquire this knowledge by:

Scaffolding

By giving them information through comparing the deforestation in the Amazon to the deforestation in Michigan

And finally,

Create their own metaphor to the deforestation in the Amazon

which will be part of the assessment

Assessment

Students will use formative assessment throughout the lesson to control their learning

Also...

They will create a metaphor at the end of the lesson which will...

HOPEFULLY...

stimulate deep-thought

All assessments will provide immediate feedback and response, besides the metaphor

By the end of the lesson,

students will be able to identify rainforest deforestation...

More importantly,

Who will be my audience?

Students will learn about...

teach someone else about the effects of the rainforest on species, humans, Ecuador,and why rainforest deforestation is so detrimental.
