deceptive and fraudulent pricing and advertising.
a. Create, manually or with technological tools, graphs and tables related to personal finance and

Differentiation Strategies (How will the lesson address the various learning styles of the students and the
needs of those with special needs?):
The school is 83% Black which is reflected in the class; however other ethnicities are represented in the
class. Students with disabilities are 8% of the total student population. The classroom has students with
different learning styles and disabilities. All 17 of the students in the classroom have IEP’s so, the lessons
are modified to accommodate the various learning abilities for student’s strength and needs. The lower
level readers in the classroom can answer questions and get involved by using their own knowledge and
understanding of what they learned about the lesson. Most of the class has trouble in solving various math
problems if the lesson is too difficult for the students to understand the teacher will be reteaching and
breaking down the lesson for better understanding to the students. The plan of this lesson is to allow the
students to become more hands on and engaged by the teacher making the lesson very enjoyable for the
students to learn and get involved in their life experiences.

Diagnostic/pre-assessment(s): Ask the class what do they know about maintaining on a budget? Then
the teacher will pass out the notebook paper for the pre-assessment. The students will be asked to take a
pre-assessment on decision making vocabulary words.
Formative assessment(s)/feedback to learners: The class will have a hands-on assessment and break
off into small groups by making a list of three important decisions to make while maintaining on a budget.
Then explain to the teacher why the three specific decisions were made.
Summative assessment(s): The teacher will end the assessment by allowing the students to tell the
teacher what they learned about the lesson and provide feedback. An exit ticket will be given to the
students for the post-assessment on vocabulary terms.
Exceeds expectations: The student’s work will be extremely detailed and more advanced than the other
students. The students can answer all my questions and provide great feedback.
Meets expectations: The student’s work will be completed and on task. The students can answer some of
my questions and provide feedback about the lesson.
Below expectations: The student has no knowledge about the lesson and is unable to answer any
questions or provide feedback of what the lesson was about.
The teacher will do an overview of what the lesson was about and allow the students to come to the front
and say what they learned about the lesson or what was important to them. Then the teacher will provide
feedback of the lesson and give a better understanding to the students that did not comprehend. An exit
ticket will be given on the post-assessment vocabulary words.
EVALUATION:
The teacher will explain and teach the lesson on how to maintain while being on a budget and the
importance of the decision making process. Then the students will be engaged by making a list of three
important decisions to make while maintaining on a budget. The teacher will collaborate with the students
on, why the three specific decisions were made within each group. This will give the teacher an idea of
which students are understanding, and which students are not and need more help.
What if students….
Do not understand how to make a financial plan or how to maintain on a budget. I will re explain the
lesson and then check for a more knowledge and understanding of the lesson, I would also be more
detailed and use scaffolding for knowledge and understanding.
What if students cannot…
Identify what the vocabulary words are and how they are related to the lesson. I will help the students
better understand the vocabulary words and see how everything ties into the lesson, or the teacher can
provide a peer group activity for more understanding and help.
All the students work samples and rubrics are attached under the comments section on the
assignment tab. Labeled part c instructional materials.
