Project #4: Language Arts and Reading Lessons/Activities for Diverse Groups

This assignment helps align instructional activities with Early Learning Standards. For this project, the FLORIDA EARLY LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS will be referenced. The first four standards will be referenced for this project (Physical Development, Approaches to Learning, Social/Emotional Development, and Language and Literacy).

FLORIDA EARLY LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS

The student will create TWO developmentally appropriate language arts and reading lesson plans, tied to each of the learning domains in the Early Learning Standards, and designed for a chosen age group (birth to age 8). There will be a total of EIGHT lesson plans for this project. All lesson plans will include modifications for culturally and linguistically diverse students. The project will also include extension activities to share with families. Lesson plans will be written using the official FSW Lesson Plan Template, available in the Canvas module.

The Florida Early Learning Standards to use for this project:

Physical Development
Approaches to Learning
Social and Emotional Development
Language and Literacy

Each lesson plan should have a description of materials needed, procedures to follow, and goals (instructional objectives) that you hope to accomplish. Here are considerations as you prepare:

Is it a teacher directed activity, a self-discovery activity, a small or large group activity? Why did you choose the particular activities for the culturally/linguistically diverse students?

Why did you pick the particular activities for the family extension activity? Please check the grading rubric to make sure you have included all necessary information.
