DFMS Scholars will be able to demonstrate how to graph motion

Drew Freeman Middle School Science Lesson Plan

Teacher/Subject:	Bonaduce 7th grade Science
Date:	9/12-9/13
Common Core State Standard	Demonstrate how to graph of motion and interpret graphic data.
Essential Question(s):	What can graphs tell us about movement?
Objective Lesson Outcome What will students learn?	Students will learn how to construct a basic line graph as well as interpret the meaning of basic line graphs.
Exit Ticket	Graphing the follow set of data: Distance 1 sec 2 meters 2 sec 4 meters 3 sec 6 meters Exemplary Response: Criteria for success: Graph will include: labeled y-axis, labeled x-axis, all data points plotted and a title
Required Materials/ Technology	Guided notes, pen or pencil, paper
Engagement (13 min) (Includes warm up) Scholars could be writing on the left side of the Interactive Notebook. (Individual, Small or Whole Group) Objective stated written/orally PreAssessment Connecting to Prior Knowledge Learning Activity Set-Up Multiple Entry Points Homework Review	DO NOW: 1. What do speed in velocity have in common? What is different about them? 2.  If Chelsea has to get the school in 30 seconds but must walk 120 meters to get there. How fast must she walk? 3. What is the formula for speed? Write it two ways. Review exit tickets, put them into IADNB and write 2 sentence reflection on score and how to improve it
Exploration 15 min. Scholars could be writing on the left side of the Interactive Notebook. Think/Wait Time Hands on Lab Manipulatives & Tools Modeling Questions Cooperative learning (i.e, Jigsaw, Think-pair-share, Flexible Grouping) Use of Technology	Turn and Talk after looking at a graph without any explanation – what does it mean?
Explanation 10 min. Scholars should be writing Cornell Notes on the right side of the Interactive Notebook. Concept Web Mind map Partner share Vocabulary development Student centered Evaluation Portfolio	Model how to graph, model how to interpret the graph Questions/Strategies to promote expert thinking and complex communication:
Elaboration 20 min. (Develop Flexibility and Fluidity:  Explicit Teaching/Guided Practice) Scholars could be writing on the left side of the Interactive Notebook. (Extension-Differentiated Practice) KWL Chart Intervention Activities Problem of the Week Modeling Concepts Graphic Organizers Games Technology	POP questions, written questions in guided notes
Evaluation (Closing/Assessment) 12 min. Scholars could be writing on the left side of the Interactive Notebook. Gallery Walks           Journal Entries Quick writes              Student interviews Buddy Check            White Boards Answer Cards	***Exit Ticket completed during this time.
