Section I:
Candidate: Haley Craven Cooperating Teacher: Mrs. Reed Academic Year: 2018
Section II: Description of Students: Describe (1) the number of students, (2) demographics of the students, and (3)
any other special features or important information that you included in your Long Range Plan as you described your
students.
In my class, there are 26 students. Twelve of the students are girls and fourteen are boys. 25 of the
students are African American and 1 is biracial. There are 2 students that receive resources. 100% of the
students receive free lunch. The students academic levels are as follows:
6 students: low
13 student: average
7 students: above average
Section III: Contextual Factors: Describe the contextual factors, including the (1) relevant student characteristics from
Section II, as well (2) as other factors related to the community, district, school, classroom or students, that are likely to impact
instruction and/or student learning with regard to the selected instructional unit. Include a (3) description of the ways in which
each of these factors will be taken into consideration during unit planning and instruction.
Orangeburg County school district 5 is one of the largest in the area, where they serve approximately 7000 students from the
local communities of Orangeburg, Bowman, and North. There are a total of 15 school in the area including elementary, middle,
and high schools.
In the class there are 26 students. 14 of those students are male and 12 students are female. 25 of the students in the class are
African American and 1 is biracial. All 26 students receive free lunch. There are 2 students who receive help from resource,
speech.
I will take into account the socioeconomic status of my students and keep that in mind when determining what supplies I ask
students to have for different activities to go with lessons. I will take the number of students who receive resource into account
when I am planning my unit and lessons.

Anticipatory set: played a video off of youtube about retelling stories and
being able to know the beginning, middle, and end.
Direct instruction: “I do”
Guided practice: “We do”
Independent practice: “You do”
Closure
I also used various instructional strategies such as think-pair-share, close reading,
and cooperative learning.
Resources include computer, smartboard, youtube, books, journals, dry erase board,
markers, crayons, pencils, ipads, worksheets.
I also used various instructional strategies such as ticket out the door. Math is right
before lunch so to close math lessons I would do a ticket out the door question. The
students have to turn in their ticket in order to line up for lunch.
Resources include computer, smartboard, lumens, youtube, pearsonsuccessnet,
worksheet, counters, dry erase board, markers, and pencils.
I used to ocsd5 lesson plan cycle to make sure I cover all important aspects of my 2 weeks 1 and 2
instructional planning. Some of my key points I address in each lesson are:
Anticipatory set: played a video off of youtube about solving addition and
subtraction problems using pictures and objects.
Direct instruction: “I do” first problem on math worksheet
Guided practice: “We do” second and third problem together on the board
Independent practice: “You do” the last problem by yourself
Closure
I also used various instructional strategies such as ticket out the door for closure to
our lesson and to check for understanding.
Weeks 1 and 2 1 and 2
Integration of the Arts: students will use art when they draw pictures (circles/squares
to represent counters and cubes) to show addition and subtraction up to 10. Music
will be used when students watch youtube videos that are like songs to show helpful
ways to add and subtract.
Weeks 1 and 2 1 and 2
Integration of Health: health will be incorporated when we discuss certain examples
of addition and subtraction problems. For example problems that say I had 10 candy
bars, then I ate 7. How many are left? After they answer, I will explain how that is
unhealthy and we should not eat that many.
Weeks 1 and 2 1 and 2
Integration of Physical Education: Students will used their fine motor skills when they
use their fingers to add and subtract different situations.

Reflect on the instructional plans for the units: How does this instructional plan (1) establish a balance between grade-level
academic standards and expectations and the needs, abilities and developmental levels of individual students? (2) Discuss the
strategies used to teach students on varying levels. (3) Discuss how you designed your instructional plan using students’
characteristics, needs and learning contexts.

unit objectives. (2) Attach one or more clearly labeled tables, graphs, or charts that depict the results of the pre-assessment(s)
in a format that allows you to find patterns of student performance relative to each objective. (3) Summarize the results of the
pre-assessment(s) and describe the implications of these results on instruction.
For my pre-assessments I did not give formal test or assignments, I simply asked the students questions to
informally assess their prior knowledge about the different topics. Their responses let me know how much they
knew or didn’t know and would help me to know where to start and what to cover.

Once you have completed the unit, analyze all of your assessments and determine your students’ progress relative to the unit
objectives.
(1) Did the information increase your understanding of individual students’ performance?
Yes analyzing student assessments increased my understanding of student performance. By analyzing the assessments that I
administered, it allowed me to see if the students were grasping the content that I implemented during the unit. When they struggled,
I could analyze their results to see what particular parts of the content confused them, or if it was how a question might have been
asked.
(2) Attach clearly labeled tables, graphs or charts that depict student performance (strengths and weaknesses) for the entire
class, for one selected subgroup and for at least two individual students.
Above is the chart for the whole class to show student performance (mastered or developing). Attached is examples from each of
the 4 different grades students received: 100, 88, 67, and 33.
(3) For each visual representation, (3) provide a descriptive narrative that summarizes your analysis of student progress and
achievement.
(4) Finally, explain the ways in which you have assigned student grades (or other indicators of student performance), and what
were the overall results?
(5) Based on the overall results, did the students gain from this unit all that you expected? Why or why not?
After seeing overall results, the students gained all that I expected them to because more than 90% of them mastered the concept being
taught.
(6) Include a description of the ways in which these results have been recorded as well as how and to whom they have been
reported.
Students’ grades have been recorded by in the gradebook on PowerSchool, a program that allows teachers to record the grades
electronically. These grades are also sent home the week test are taken for signed papers and the stored in the students test folders.
Revised 2017
Section VII. Reflection and Self-Assessment
(1) Reflect on and describe the relationship between your students’ progress and achievement and your teaching performance.
I would say my students’ progress was definitely a reflection of my teaching performance. After my pre-assessment
(informal questions) I had a good idea of how much my students knew about or didn’t know about the topics at hand.
(2) If you were to teach this unit again to the same groups of students, (2) what, instructional decisions would you make to
improve your students’ performance? What specific aspects of the instruction need to be modified?
If I were able to teach this same unit again to the same group of students, I would differentiate my activities and
worksheets more to challenge those students who are grasping concepts quickly and want to know more; and to
differentiate for students who struggle I will find easier worksheets, work with their group for extra practice, and relay
the information to them in different ways.
(3) What activities were successful? Which were unsuccessful? Give reasons based on theory or research as to why you
believe the activities were successful or unsuccessful.
The activities where students could be hands on like in science searching through magazines playing I-Spy and creating
projects were more successful. I think these activities were successful because students got to create something
themselves by working independently. An unsuccessful activity was in math when I asked students to answer math
questions in their math journals. I was asking students to show different numbers using tens-frames. It would have been
more successful if I had the tens-frames drawn already.
