LESSON PROCEDURE
Student Differentiation:
For the fourth learning
3
Hook/Attention Grabber: Begin class by welcoming the students and then formally
introducing myself (PowerPoint). After formally introducing myself to the class, talk a little bit
about the module, explain how the Moodle page is set up, and then run through some class
expectations. Once everyone is on the same page, have the students sign into a Mentimeter
(code provided) and have the class complete a word cloud answering the question, “what is
graphic design?” Each student will be allowed to submit up to three responses.
Transitioning from Hook to Body: After students have had a chance to submit their
responses, start a class discussion on the results of the word cloud. Prompting questions may
include:
“What does this mean?”
“Given the results, if we were to sum up graphic design in one word, what would we say?”
“What are some key characteristics we notice about graphic design?”
“What are some career opportunities that might be associated with graphic design?”
“Are there any surprises from the results? Why?”
Feedback From Students on Learning: Towards the end of class, have students close their
work and head to Moodle. There will be an exit slip available to them for the day’s class.
Before opening the document, pass around a roll of toilet paper and have students take some
toilet paper. Everyone must take at least one square of toilet paper but may take more if they
wish. Once everyone has acquired their toilet paper, have them open up the exit slip. Students
must answer three question:
What is something I learned today?
What are my goals for this module?
Something about myself (however many squares of toilet paper the student took is how
many things they have to tell me)
Transition To Next Lesson(s): Next class we will continue to work through Adobe
Photoshop, working on adding colour emphasis to images and how to apply layers to images.
