-Think, Pair, Shares will be used throughout the units to get students thinking about water
pollution and to experience different views/opinions.
-Students will create a 3-D model of a watershed using clay. The models will require the
creation of mountains, a lake, a river, a stream, and an ocean or bay. Students will use
colored water to show how pollutants can travel easily from one feeder stream throughout
the entire system.
-Students will complete a map of Virginia using online resources to show where different
animal resources are found in Virginia.
-Students will choose one supplier of animal resources and make a presentation with a
partner that will be shown to the class.
-Students will take a short quiz on Virginias animal resources.
Students Self-Assessment and Reflection:
How will you have students think about the content throughout the unit and
after the PBEs? (self-reflection)
-Students will be given the opportunity to journal at the end of every other lesson
about their learning that day.
Sample Questions: What could we do in class to make (insert
understanding) clearer? Are there any pieces of todays lessons that
confused you? Excited you?
-Students will complete exit slips at the end of every other lesson (alternating
with journaling).
How will you have students think about themselves as learners throughout
the unit and after the PBEs? (self-assessment)
-Students will have certain prompts in their journals that promote self-reflection.
Sample Questions: What is one new thing you learned today? What is one
thing you still have question about? How has your opinion changed
about? What is one new thing you could talk to your friends about after
today?
-Students will be prompted on exit slips to assess their understanding. Likewise,
exit slips will provide a space for students to respond with something that would
help them learn better.

Sequence all the knowledge, skills, and evidence included in Stages 1& 2 in the
order you believe will promote student understanding. Be aware that as you map
out the unit, you may discover additional content (knowledge &/or skills) that
must be taught. Be sure to include those, but you do NOT have to go back to the
early Stages and revise them. You may list your sequence (see pg. 26) or plot it
out in a calendar. If you use a calendar, dont panic if your unit runs more than
the current typical unit of one to two weeks. REMEMBER: you are teaching for
understanding, not rote memorization!!! That takes time and practice with the
content.
