I. Goals/Objectives/Standard(s)
A. Goal(s)Students will investigate and design ziplines.
B. Objective(s)In small groups, students will explore and construct at least two zipline
designs and determine which designs can transport objects efficiently.
C. Standard(s): 3-5.E.2 Construct and compare multiple plausible solutions to a problem based
on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
II. Materials- Time per lesson element, space, behavior, materials
Time: 45 minutes total. Individual times are listed next to each section.
Space: Students will be on the carpet for the lesson presentation. They will be spread across the
room to make the ziplines. Back on the carpet for closure.
Behavior: Use pre-correction and positive reinforcement to encourage appropriate behavior. If
necessary, clip students up/down to manage behavior.
Materials: fishing line/colored string (already measured), paper clips, popsicle sticks, clear tape,
paper, math manipulatives
Grouping: (recorder, line holder, line holder, objects)
1: Chase, Wyatt, Rayshawna, Lily
2: Conner, Jasayah, Cael, Britton
3: Jayda, Juquan, Journey, Landrum
4: Atreyu, Gabriel, Virgil, Devalin, Markus
5: Jamarion, Lakresha, Gracie, KeAndre
IV. Purpose: (1 min) Today you will be constructing your own zip lines. The process you will go
through (forming a hypothesis, conducting the experiment, analyzing the results, and
forming a conclusion) is like what many people do in real world situations. For example, if
you want to cook a meal for dinner, you are going to form a hypothesis; if I add this, it will
taste better becauseThen you will taste it, and determine if your hypothesis was correct.
Should you have added anything else? Then, you form your conclusion and explain what
you learned.
Formal: I have designed a checklist that I will use as I walk around to each group. This will show me
how well students are collaborating and their thinking processes as they experiment with the ziplines.
Students are collaborating (getting along, no fighting, working together).
Students have researched ziplines.
Students have tried at least two versions of a zipline.
Students are on-task and engaged in the activity.
Students are using evidence to analyze data and form conclusions.
Extra: Students understand what a hypothesis is.

REFLECTION AND POST-LESSON ANALYSIS
1. How many students achieved the lesson objective(s)? For those who did not, why not?
2. What were my strengths and weaknesses?
3. How should I alter this lesson?
4. How would I pace it differently?
5. Were all students actively participating? If not, why not?
6. What adjustments did I make to reach varied learning styles and ability levels?
a. Blooms Taxonomy
b. Gardners Multiple Intelligences
7. Was this challenging enough for the advanced students?
8. Was there enough support for the struggling learners?
9. Was the grouping acceptable? Too many? Not enough?
10. How well did students collaborate?
