PO 2. Determine which information source will provide the desired data
Concept 2: Processing Locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize, and ethically use information from
a variety of sources and media.
PO 2. Evaluate and use authoritative primary and/or secondary sources.

Objective (Explicit):
Students will be able to create and complete a presentation of how climate change affects
their community in collaborative groups with 3 reputable (primary) sources, proper
formatting (MLA/APA), and following the rubric given to them to determine how climate
change is affecting the planet world- wide by the end of this 10 day project.
Students are to complete the above requirements specified in the objective as well as those in a
rubric given to them.
Student will correctly and completely diagnose a problem due to climate change in their
community and connect it to world-wide issues.
Key vocabulary: world, global warming, climate Materials: Cardboard and statistics

How will you activate student interest?
How will you hook student attention?
What questions will you pose, based on your objective, that students will seek to answer
in Explore?

how it can affect our community and potentially
our world.
Explore
How will model your performance expectations? Remember, you are not modeling what
you want students to discover but need to model expected behavior or required
procedures.
How will students take the lead and actively use materials to discover information that
will help them answer the question posed in Engage?
What questions or prompts will you be prepared to use with students while they are
“exploring”?
Teacher Will: assign collaborative group roles, Student Will: explore different types of

Explain
How will all students have an opportunity to share what they discovered?
How will you connect student discoveries to correct content terms/explanations?
How will all students articulate/demonstrate a clear and correct understanding of the sub-
objectives by answering the question from Engage before moving on?

Elaborate
How will students take the learning from Explore and Explain and apply it to a new
circumstance or explore a particular aspect of this learning at a deep level?
How will students use higher order thinking at this stage? (e.g. A common practice in this
section is to pose a “what If question”)
How will all students articulate how their understanding has changed or been solidified?
