CENTRAL FOCUS (5 pts) strategies, and assessments are all related to the central focus. One central focus can be used
across a series of Lessons/Learning Segments.
“¿Quieres ir conmigo?” Chapter 3A is all about vocabulary pertaining to activities outside of school and
words associated with these activities.
Write objectives in measureable terms that can be observed within the span of the lesson.
LESSON OBJECTIVES (10 pts) Objectives should include multiple representations of information.
1. The learner will recognize vocabulary pertaining to activities outside of school by participating in activities
from the textbook.
2. The learner will demonstrate understanding of the grammatical structure of “ir + a + infinitive” by
formulating sentences using the correct structure.

ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
Informal - How will you show that they know what they know? What evidence will show that
students are making progress toward learning objectives? How will results of formative
FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT assessment change instruction? How will you differentiate formative assessment for individual

students? Use language from the objective to ensure alignment. Include at least three checks
for understanding throughout the lesson.
-
In order to assess objective 1, I will have students take part in an introductory vocabulary activity.
The previous day, students received a new vocabulary list for the chapter. To introduce the
vocabulary and address the pronunciations of the vocabulary, I will draw names and have each
student guess how each word is pronounced. I will offer suggestions for pronunciation improvement
and then move to the next word until we have covered all the vocabulary words. This activity helps
me ensure students are hearing the correct pronunciations of the words and have opportunities for
pronunciation clarification.
- In order to assess objective 1, I will have students participate in an activity called “Find the
Evidence.” In this activity, students will open their books to the opening pages of the chapter.
Students will translate the dialogues from the pages from Spanish to English. Then, students will
answer questions regarding the translation that I will display on the projector. This activity helps me
ensure students are recognizing the usages of the new vocabulary and familiarizing themselves with
the new vocabulary as well. It gives students opportunities to provide and obtain information in the
language as well as understand and interpret written forms of the language.
- In order to assess objective 1, I will have students participate in two listening activities- Activities 1
and 2 from the book on page 199. In these activities, students will listen to Spanish speakers talk
about activities/situations using the vocabulary from the chapter. I will inform students what they
should be listening for and students will verbally answer questions after each dialogue/statement.
This activity will give students the opportunity to understand and interpret spoken forms of the
language. This activity will help me ensure students are recognizing the usages of the new
vocabulary and are familiarizing themselves with the new vocabulary as well.
- In order to assess objective 1, students will complete Activity 4 on page 202 in the textbook. This is
another activity in which students will use the new vocabulary. This activity is a speaking activity. I
will explain the activity as well as give a demonstration on how the activity is to be completed.
Students will talk to their shoulder partners (in Spanish) to complete the activity. This activity will
give students the opportunity to recognize vocabulary pertaining to activities outside of school as
well as opportunities to present information verbally in the language.
- In order to assess objective 2, I will go over and explain the grammatical structure of “ir + a +
infinitive.” I will explain the concept as well as give examples. I will also show a video to help
supplement the instruction. Students will then complete Activity 14 in the textbook to practice the
concept. I will explain the activity as well as give an example. Students will work independently (or
with a partner if they so choose) to complete the activity. These activities will help me ensure
students are correctly using this grammatical structure. I will review the concept in further detail if
necessary.
- In order to assess objective 2, students will be assigned an activity sheet for homework covering the
vocabulary and grammatical structure of “ir + a + infinitive.” I will explain how the activity sheet is to
be completed and that students should complete the activity sheet for homework. I will check the
homework tomorrow and go over the answers in class. This will ensure me students have started to
recognize vocabulary as well as understood the concept of the grammatical structure.
SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT Formal - What evidence will show that students have mastered the central focus? Not all
(5 pts) lessons will include summative assessment.
- In order to assess objectives 1 and 2, at the end of next week, after we have completed Chapter 4B,
students will have a comprehensive test that covers all materials from Chapter 4B. There will be

- For the closure/reflection, I will do a quick recap of the topics covered. I will ask students questions
regarding topics covered and give oral feedback. I will provide clarification and supplemental
instruction if needed. I will explain that the “Ir + a + infinitive” activity sheet is homework (if they did
not complete it). I will use this activity as a formative evaluation for tomorrow’s lesson.
- I will be using my textbook, a PowerPoint, and my computer and projector to enhance student
learning and activities. These resources are directly linked to the objectives through their
implementation. The activities relate directly to the objectives, therefore the resources used to
implement the activities relate to the objectives.

- Students will be using their textbooks, activity sheets (the homework and vocabulary lists),
phones/computers, notes, and handouts. All of these resources provide students with differentiated
instructional methods as well as supplements to the activities being implemented. The
differentiated instruction helps keep students attentive and challenged. Materials are given out in
an orderly manner (a procedure that students are used to). I pass out the papers to the first person
in the row and he/she passes the papers back.
TECHNOLOGY (4 pt) How will you integrate technology to enhance student learning?
- I am directly incorporating technology by using my computer and projector. I also am implementing
activities in which students will use their phone or computer to enhance their learning opportunities
(i.e.- in the activity Find the Evidence).
