    Assessment FOR Learning (formative) Assess the students during the learning to help determine next
    steps.
    - asking questions to keep students engaged and focused on what they are learning and to
    determine if they are ready to move on

    Assessment OF Learning (summative)

    Stage 3- Learning Plan


    Motivational/Anticipatory Set (introducing topic while engaging the students)
    - walking around the room asking questions
    - giving them time in class to work together and be creative with their project
    Main Procedures/Strategies:
    First, students will read a blurb from chapter 1 about “getting your life in balance”. They will then be
    given a “wheel of life” activity where they will be able to determine if they are focusing too much on
    one part of their life and neglecting others. Next, they will fill in a worldview graphic organizer to
    discover their own personal worldviews. From here, they will be given the medicine wheel
    assignment. They will be required to create a medicine wheel with 4 different colours with each
    circle getting bigger the further out you go. Each circle of the wheel will also be broken into 4
    sections. The circles of the wheel will be: 1) a compass 2) seasons 3) personal beliefs 4) life stages

    Adaptations/Differentiation:
    - the written explanations are broken down and are very specific, simple, and concise which helps
    the EAL students in the class
    - the manipulatives will be beneficial the students who are kinesthetic learners
    - the students are allowed to work alongside each other, but will be doing their own project so this
    will encourage collaboration and support the diversity within the class
    - students with disabilities will have the opportunity to work with me or other students for extra
    help if they are struffling

    Closing of lesson:
    Students will be required to hand in their first 2 assignments before they leave, but will have 2 more
    classes to work on the medicine wheel
