¶ … fractions (Math)
Concept/topic: Students will learn fractions in a hands-on manner to prepare them for dealing with this mathematical concept on paper.
Lesson goals/objectives: Students will be able to identify fractions.
Standards (CCSS and other relevant standards for AZ and curriculum): "Application: Provides opportunities for students to independently apply mathematical concepts in real-world situations and solve challenging problems with persistence, choosing and applying an appropriate model or strategy to new situations" ("EQuiP: Mathematics," 2013).
Required materials: Cookies (which can be easily divided) or pictures of cookies; M&Ms (or other brightly colored candies); beads, marbles.
Introduction/anticipatory set: Teacher will ask students about how they divide objects into halves, quarters, and other fractions in life (such as when cutting a cake or sharing a pizza).
Step-by-step procedures:
Teacher will write fractions on board
Teacher will demonstrate use of different fractions with pictures showing divided cookies, pizza, toys, and other common items.
3. Students will be given objects to manipulate at desk when asked 'can you break a cookie into a 1/2" or 'can you count out 1/4 of the red M&Ms?"
4. Teacher will demonstrate adding and subtraction fractions with objects.
5. Students will mimic teacher's actions.
Assistive technology integration: Students with visual impairments can manually manipulate and count objects; lesson provides manual and visual reinforcement for students with processing disorders.
Assessment: Students will be given a reinforcing worksheet which asks questions about whether objects have been divided into fractions correctly.
Adaptations and extensions: When students learn adding and subtraction fractions, teacher will return to the lessons of this unit for concrete reinforcement.
Specific instructional strategies for students with EBD: If students with EBD become frustrated, teacher can help them manipulate objects at desk.
Lesson title: A web of words: Journaling Charlotte's Web (Writing)
Concept/topic: Writing a journal about Charlotte's Web
Lesson goals/objectives: Students will learn to write in a creative and independent manner
Standards (CCSS and other relevant standards for AZ and curriculum): "Include prominent and varied writing opportunities for students that balance communicating thinking and answering questions with self-expression and exploration" ("EQuiP: Literacy," 2013).
Required materials: Copy of Charlotte's Web, posters that illustrate scenes from the book around the classroom, paper and pencil.

To do this, the teacher needs to adopt a diverse, personalized teaching style and curriculum. To accomplish this, a teacher's learning style must show respect for the students' individual and different learning styles, be responsive to students' different learning styles by utilizing different levels of tasks and activities, utilize a range of teaching strategies, and teach thinking skills that stretch across the curriculum. One of the most significant challenges that

According to Bales, 1999, the concept behind SYMLOG is that "every act of behavior takes place in a larger context, that it is a part of an interactive field of influences." Further, "the approach assumes that one needs to understand the larger context -- person, interpersonal, group, and external situation -- in order to understand the patterns of behavior and to influence them successfully." With SYMLOG, measurement procedures are
Transparency empowers consumers to become better shoppers. Economists assert that transparency stimulates productivity, for example, in exchange for money, one individual obtaining fair value. In every aspect, except healthcare, Davis points out, transparency, is supported. The contemporary dearth of transparency in healthcare has led to many Americans not being able to effectively shop for the best quality of service at acute care hospitals. Davis argues that transparency permits consumers,
The United States is one of the few industrialized, democratic nations in the world which still permits capital punishment on a state-by-state basis. Not all states have the death penalty but executions are still carried out in the United States and the punishment remains controversial. Despite the singularity of its status internationally, the death penalty has historically been a popular policy in the United States, even though it has been hotly
