The purpose of this assignment is to analyze and select variousinstructional strategies specifically for reading and languagedevelopment.

In this assignment, you will design a lesson plan intended to engagestudents in these strategies, while also making learning appropriatelyhigher-order and meaningful.

• Older elementary students will primarily be taught lessons onvocabulary, including English language arts content terminology, andtext comprehension.
• Align to state or national standards for English language arts (use the Common Core standards or your state’s standards).
• Use a grade-appropriate fiction or non-fiction text.
• Include grade- and content-appropriate vocabulary.
• Incorporate appropriate formative or summative assessment.
• Utilize appropriate English language arts practices and materials.
• Demonstrate organization and logic.

After designing the lesson plan, in 150-250 words, reflect on how youengaged complex thinking and meaning making within the scope of thereading and language/vocabulary lesson. Emphasize how you encouragedcritical thinking and understanding of the text and language/vocabulary.

Submit your lesson plan and reflection as one deliverable.
