Procedures: 1. To begin the lesson I will ask one student from each of the five groups to come and get five offices for their group. 2. Once all of the groups have their offices I will pass out the test while giving the students instructions of: do not start the test, put your name, number, and date on your test. 3. Once all of the students except for the three resource students have their test I will begin giving further directions of what the students will need to do on their test. 4. I will go over all of the directions for each page. 5. Once I have discussed all of the directions with the class and answered all of their questions I will tell the class to begin their test. 6. The students will have a complete hour and forty minutes to complete their test. 7. Once the students finished they are asked to check their work a second time and then fold it into their office. They are then aloud to read or work on previous work that needs to be completed. 8. Once all of the students are done with their test I will call all of the students in number order to bring me their test. At this time they will also put their office back under the cart. Activity Analysis: The students will be completing a SC regions test based on what they have been taught about the six SC regions, the major river systems and the major cities of SC.
