A and P Injection Lab
A and P Injection Lab
A and P Injection Lab
School: Rocky Mountain High School Grade Level: 11&12 Content Area: Anatomy and Physiology
Lesson Idea/Topic and Injection lab focusing on IM and SC injections, following up a suture lab last
Rational/Relevance: week at the end of cells and tissues unit before moving onto skeletal
systems.
Student Profile: Mainly 11th and 12th graders with a few 10th graders in the mix. Elective class
with ranging student interest and skill level. There are some social and
motivational needs that need to be taken into consideration when forming
groups and engaging in the activity.
Content Standard(s) addressed by this lesson: (Write Content Standards directly from the standard)
Standard IV Histology- 4a- Identify the three layers of the skin (epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous)
I want students to understand the difference between IM and SC injections and how to perform them.
Inquiry Questions: (Essential questions relating knowledge at end of the unit of instruction, select applicable questions from standard)
This means: when provided with materials (Syringes, oranges and chicken) they can accurately perform both types of injections at least once.
List of Assessments: (Write the number of the learning targets associated with each assessment)
All students will independently and accurately complete one of each type of injection (IM and SC) on their own.
Anticipatory Set The strategy I intend to use is: Do now-write down what you know about the three layers
of the skin.
I am using this strategy here because: It gets them on task and provides them with a
refresher going into the activity that deals with the subcutaneous skin layer.
Procedures The strategies I intend to use are: teacher input, modeling, whole class practice and
check for understanding.
I am using this strategy here because: The students need to be told, shown, and allowed
to practice lab methods on their own while evaluating their understanding of content
material.

Assessment Mrs. Wylie and I will perform a visual assessment of accurately completed injections in
oranges and chicken breasts for each student, demonstrating the IM and SQ injection on
the appropriate product. There will also be a 3-2-1 notecard collected at the end for
student self-evaluation.
1. To what extent were lesson objectives achieved? (Utilize assessment data to justify
your level of achievement)
2. What changes, omissions, or additions to the lesson would you make if you were to
teach again?
3. What do you envision for the next lesson? (Continued practice, reteach content, etc.)
4. If you used co-teaching, would you use the same co-teaching strategy for this lesson
if you were to teach it again? Were there additional co-teaching strategies used
during the lesson not planned for initially? Please explain.
Lesson Idea/Topic and Rational/Relevance: What are you going to teach and why is this lesson of
importance to your students? How is it relevant to students of this age and background?
Student Profile: Write a narrative about your learners. What are their special needs? Exceptionalities?
Giftedness? Alternative ways of learning? Maturity? Engagement? Motivation?
Name and Purpose of Lesson: Should be a creative title for you and the students to associate with the
activity. Think of the purpose as the mini-rationale for what you are trying to accomplish through this
lesson.
Co-Teaching: Models – One teach/One observe, One teach/One assist, Station teaching, Parallel
teaching, Alternative/Differentiated/Supplemental teaching, Team teaching.
Approx. Time and Materials: How long do you expect the activity to last and what materials will you
need?
Anticipatory Set: The “hook” to grab students’ attention. These are actions and statements by the
teacher to relate the experiences of the students to the objectives of the lesson, To put students into a
receptive frame of mind.
To focus student attention on the lesson.
To create an organizing framework for the ideas, principles, or information that is to follow
(advanced organizers)
An anticipatory set is used any time a different activity or new concept is to be introduced.
Procedures: Include a play-by-play account of what students and teacher will do from the minute they
arrive to the minute they leave your classroom. Indicate the length of each segment of the lesson. List
actual minutes.
Indicate whether each is:
teacher input
modeling
questioning strategies
guided/unguided:
o whole-class practice
o group practice
o individual practice
check for understanding
other
Closure: Those actions or statements by a teacher that are designed to bring a lesson presentation to an
appropriate conclusion. Used to help students bring things together in their own minds, to make sense
out of what has just been taught. “Any Questions? No. OK, let’s move on” is not closure. Closure is used:
To cue students to the fact that they have arrived at an important point in the lesson or the end
of a lesson.
To help organize student learning
To help form a coherent picture and to consolidate.
Differentiation: To modify: If the activity is too advanced for a child, how will you modify it so that they
can be successful? To extend: If the activity is too easy for a child, how will you extend it to develop
their emerging skills? What observational assessment data did you collect to support differentiated
instruction?
Assessment (data analysis): How will you know if students met the learning targets? Write a description
of what you were looking for in each assessment. How do you anticipate assessment data will inform
your instruction?
