Module 8: Lesson planning
Assessments: As we discussed before, the summative assessment for the unit should assess how well the students fulfilled the standards and objectives of the unit. However, a detailed curriculum will also include formative assessments that help your students build skills and scaffold on their way to the summative assessment.
Model lessons: A thorough curriculum will also provide you with exemplar lesson plans that you can either use, modify, or look to for guidance on how you should be framing your lessons.
Exemplar texts: Your curriculum will likely also detail the texts that you can use for each unit. These will be texts that are vetted to make sure they fit the unit thematically and are within the appropriate reading level for the students in your class.
Secondary material: Your curriculum should also offer secondary sources that fit within your units. In an American English unit plan, there are typically suggestions of art and music to go along with the literature that needs to be covered.
