    Unit Plan: Reflection Page: Unit Plan: Map Concepts & Analysis Submitted By: Zachary Haro

    This unit plan was created by Zachary Haro for a Nevada State College course. The plan focuses on map concepts and analysis. Most of the ideas and materials came from textbooks on social studies and integrating language arts and social studies. Writing the actual planner part of the unit was easiest, as it involved copying and pasting information. The most challenging part was writing 5 lessons that covered the same standards for the week while keeping each lesson different enough that students would not get bored. Some suggestions for improving future unit plans include choosing the standards and writing the planner first to serve as an organizer. The plans should also aim to use consistent strategies throughout the week to provide structure and expectations for students.

    Unit Plan: Map Concepts & Analysis Submitted By: Zachary Haro

    Nevada State College EDEL 453 - Spring 2014 Karen Powell- Instructor
    Unit Plan: Reflection Page
    1. Where did you get the ideas and materials for this unit plan? Include website
    names, URLs, book titles and authors.
    I got the majority of the ideas and materials for this unit plan from the
    Houghton Mifflin social studies text book teacher edition, and the course text
    Integrating Language Arts & Social Studies. The rest of my ideas for activities
    and assessments were inquiry based teaching strategies from other courses,
    and Kagan strategies from my mathematics concepts course.



    2. What were the easiest and most challenging parts of writing this unit plan?
    The easiest part of writing this unit plan was writing the actual Planner part of
    it. It was all copy and paste, and really opened my eyes as to how easy
    making and organizing a unit can be. The most challenging part was writing
    5 lessons that intertwined with each other enough to cover all the same
    standards for the week. Making each one different enough so that my
    students wont be bored was difficult as well, but I tried to incorporate as
    many effective strategies as I could.



    3. What suggestions do you have for yourself for the next time you write unit
    plans?
    Some suggestions I would have for myself would be to choose the standards
    and write the planner first. The planner for me serves as a kind of graphic
    organizer that I can build my lessons off of, and when I did this unit plan I did
    it totally backwards. I would also make sure that try to use a lot of the same
    strategies throughout the week because students function better when they
    know what to expect. I observed that in a classroom after I had already
    written my lesson plans, but it is something that I will definitely incorporate
    next time.
