Modifying a Lesson Plan

Review “Marcus Partial IEP and Lesson” to inform the assignment. Upon reviewing the Present Level of Performance and the second grade literacy-based standards, think about how you can adapt the lesson to meet Marcus specific needs and align to his identified academic goals. Revise the Sample Co-Teaching Lesson Plan (Direct Instruction) to reflect modifications and accommodations for Marcus. Use bold print or highlighting to indicate changes you have made to the lesson.

Write a 250-500 word rationale the addresses the following.

  • Explain your instructional choices including how your lesson extends the skills taught in the Sample Co-Teaching Lesson Plan for Marcus and why the lesson is appropriate for meeting Marcus academic goal.
  • Discuss how elements of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) will be incorporated to enhance Marcus learning.
