Unit+Plan+-+World+War+II

Since we are all doing a Project Based Learning Lesson for Dietrich, I thought it would be a good idea if we split the load and each group from Dietrich's class focus on a different essential question. I may be too late in asking, but I would like to see what each lesson plan is about so we can double dip these classes and save time. - Dan and Josh (October 19 1:40pm)

Hey Guys, sorry I was not at the meeting the other day, but for my section, basically the before and after of the war, should i concentrate more on the american perspective of would we want more of the world changes? example, changes on the map of european countries? -Chris Knarr

Hey Guys, This is my lesson plan for "What changed and stayed the same immediately following WWII?" Let me know if there is anything else I need or can do to help get this unit plan done.

-Chris Knarr

Chris, I think we wanted to aim more for the world changes, rather than an American-centric design. Sorry for the late response. Here's my lesson for "Based on geographical boundaries, which countries were "winners" and which ones were "losers"? Just letting you guys know I'm still able to meet tomorrow at 3:00 in Stayer.  -Josh (10/30)

This is my lesson plan - Daniel Kollasch - October 31 - 4:20pm

Colin & Ryan, For our closure which will be listed towards the end of our summarizing handout we were talking about doing a "gallery walk". Specifically this is going to be an activity where we subdivide the class into groups, place about 10 sheets of chart paper around the room (one primary topic per paper), and the groups rotate to each topic like stations to put any information they learned about these things. This allows the teacher to assess what the students learned so they are aware of how well their lesson was recieved which will help highlight any necessary tweaks to teach the lesson better the next time. Let me know if you have any more questions regarding this. Thanks!

Also, please find attached below a link to the webquest that I found which could be used within our lesson. This is something that would probably be best ustilized towards the end of the unit, but is not the summative assessment. Make sure you get the teacher handout for Josh and Dans "speculative fiction" activity they prepared for Dr. Dietrich's class as this most likely be our summative assessment.

Hey Guys, Please find attached a copy of my lesson plan as well as the .pdf for the anticipation guide I will be using as my activator. To reiterate, my section is on economics and addresses the question "What were the economic implications of going to war?". You can find this essential question in my lesson plan as well. Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!
