For my unit plan, I chose to review informational texts because they are not only a central part of the NJ Common Core Standards for Language Arts Literacy, but they are also a key part in any kind of future research that a student will need to perform. I tried to construct unit goals that were aimed at answering the essential questions I created for this unit, and the essential questions were formulated by going over the Common Core Standards and understanding what key skills a student should learn in the grade level that I chose. I would like to teach middle school in the future, and my most recent subbing job prior to the start of this project was for a 7th grade teacher, so I had this particular age group fresh in my mind.
The majority of the lessons that I cited in my Padlet are from the ReadWriteThink site by NCTE. This was one of the sites I used to conduct research on lesson plans from Interactivity #3, and it proved to be extremely helpful here as well because the site comes equipped with recommended technologies, websites, and outside research ideas for students. This made it extremely easy for me to find technologies that were student-friendly and creative ways to include them in the lessons. I specifically chose the resources and technologies I did for their ease of use and navigation, and their seamless integration into the lessons.
