Sophie Miller has a severe hearing loss but has recently received cochlear implants. She uses
mostly English but also uses American Sign Language for support when necessary since she is
still getting used to using them. She is in 4th grade and learns in general education courses that
also include other students who have trouble hearing except for language arts where she joins
other Deaf/HH students to work on her signing. Sophie is working on using her implants so she
can listen and respond more carefully to the teachers and others.

6. Formative Assessment
a. Students will provide a visual project with at least 5 informative facts about the project
to conclude that they understand the concept. The response part of the assignment is
for each individual student can reflect on something they have learned. The students
will be graded by how constructive their poster was and if they met the required
assessments.
7. Reflection - Completed after implementation of lesson plan
The assessment helped each student to work on their listening skills. Multiple children in
the classroom had a hearing problem and some with cochlear implants. To ensure that
they are listening correctly each student was asked to respond to the presentations
The achievement I wanted from the lesson was to not only help students research and
obtain knowledge about the Solar System as well as work on their signing and listening
skills
If the whole classroom was deaf, some modifications I would make to the lesson would
be to have each student sign their presentation out and have every student respond in
ASL. This way they are practicing and concentration on not only learning more about the
material in the lesson, but also practicing their signing
