Unit: Plants Lesson: What plants needs Time from: 10:35 to: 11:25

PURPOSE Why am I teaching this lesson? What do I want the students to know/to be able to do by the
end of the lesson that they could not do before? (LOs and SOs)

Explore the requirements of plants for life and growth (air, light, nutrients
from soil and room to grow)
GROUPING: What is the group size? How is every student going to be able to participate? Will you be
differentiating and how?

I have five groups each group involves 5/6 students and I applied two differentiation
strategies for this lesson:

Flexible Grouping: which means that medium, high and low students are setting
in the same group, this will give students opportunities to interact with other
students in meaningful by dealing with wide range of peers alike and different from
themselves. Besides that, all of them working to reach same learning objectives.

Extra Worksheet: I create an extra worksheet for the high-level students because
they might finish before the timer end up.
