Hook/ Anticipatory Set

How will you set the stage for learning and excite students about learning your objectives?

I will introduce them to a large model of a color wheel and explain each color and its placement. I have a

worksheet to hand out to them that has a blank color wheel on it. I will explain that we are going to fill in this worksheet together. Then begin to model on my own worksheet each section at a time.

Direct Instruction (I do)

How will to introduce the concepts or skills or learning objectives to students? Through modeling? Discovery learning?

-I am going to introduce them to the color wheel and for some it will be reviewing. I will model what each section of a color wheel is and model on my worksheet each step we will take as a class to complete the color wheel.

Guided Practice (We do) and Checks for Understanding

What strategies will you use to guide your students’ application of the concepts or skills? How will you know if they are getting it? What formative assessments will you use to keep track of student learning?

-This worksheet that I am modeling and working together as a group on will be a formative assessment. I want to make sure they have a full understanding of all of the colors and the color sections.
