Lesson Plan Reflection (required):

1) Highlight Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) components within your lesson.
Write a paragraph (3-5 sentences) elaborating on the intentionally planned CRT components of your lesson.
How did you demonstrate high expectations (be specific on what this looks like), make learning relevant,
and motivate students?
By creating activities with a low level of English vocabulary, I allowed students to engage more in the
reading as well as the activities and class discussions. I motivated students by creating class discussions and
partner activities where they all had expectations of participating. Asking high level questions creating
opportunities of discussion allowed students to practice high level thinking.
2) Italicize Universal Design for Learning (UDL) components within your lesson.
Write a paragraph (3-5 sentences) elaborating on the intentionally planned UDL components
(representation, action & expression, engagement) of your lesson. How did you differentiate to meet the
needs of ALL learners?
By creating different activities that engaged in different ways I created a more inclusive environment where
all students were able to learn in different ways. Images, videos, and visual presentations are presented to
students to ensure that all students are understanding all information given. With vocabulary activities I
created support for unfamiliar references that can be an obstacle for student’s learning. I provided models
and examples, as well as objectives to develop skill of goal setting.
