A. Goal: Students will be able to state a level of government, the leader of the government, and one service that level provides by
completing a campaign activity.

d. Behavior
• Students will be expected to sit quietly and pay attention to the lesson
• They will also be expected to participate in group / partner activities
o I will provide engaging material to help support the students and ensure they are paying attention.
• I will use common management strategies that I have learned through Mrs. Maynard and that I know students are
familiar with
o Back to me in 3, 2, 1
o Give me 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
o Etc.
III. Adaptation to Individual Differences and Diverse Learners:
• For students who may be struggling with comprehending or coming up with a specific service provided by a
level of the government, I will be incorporating a matching activity that they may use to reference to come up
with leaders and/or services with a level of government.
XV. Check for understanding. How do you know students have learned? What strategies will you implement if all students have not met
lesson outcomes? Employ one or more strategies to determine student learning.
• Matching Activity
o Walking around the classroom, observing students as they work. Also, use the time going over answers to assess the class
and see what they understand and what they seem to be struggling in.
• Campaign Activity
o “I am going to pass out a paper. On this paper, I want you to make a campaign for yourself. To do so, you will draw a picture
of yourself and then write what position you are running for (president, mayor, governor). After you write this, you need to
tell me what level of government you are running for (local, national, state) and tell me what function you will provide. You
may use functions from the matching activity or come up with one on your on.”
▪ Show students my example of the campaign
▪ Allow time for students to work
▪ Walk around, assist students as needed
VIII. Review learning outcomes / Closure – In what way will you know that all students have learned or met the objective?
• Allow time for students to share their campaigns within their table groups. Allow time for three students to share their campaigns
with the class.
