6. Procedures/Methods-

A. Introduction-

Get the students to get in a partner. Get the students to discuss what they already know about the five food groups. Walk around to see what they are saying. Ask if they're done. Get them to all go back to their seats and raise their hand to tell us what they already know about the five food groups. Once we have enough get them to go back in their partner and discuss what they want to know. Fill that in to.
 

B. Development-

The students are each going to fill out their own KW graphic organizer now. They will only fill out the KW though. I want students to go back to their desk and get their laptops out. They will now try and find more information with a bibliography to list where they got the information. They can also use books for research.
 

C. Practice-

When students are doing research I will be going around with a clipboard with the grading sheet and loose leaf to be taking notes about their progress and websites they're using.
 

D. Independent Practice-

Find inspiration for different worksheets online. Teacher created worksheets for this.
 

E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-

If some students do not understand what they're doing or need help. Take them to your desk and help them with different sources like worksheets or websites that I have found.
 

F. Checking for understanding-

Create a test for the students and see if they get it right. Ask the students if they liked this unit or not. Create something for homework for seeing if they understand.
 

G. Closure-

Doing the L part of the KWL graphic organizer. See what they have learned. Keep this for report cards.
