Subject/Grade Level/Lesson Duration
Students may have misconceptions about timelines and how they work. They also may
not understand how to create a visual representation of a historical time period.
5. What are individual learning needs in this class? What supports/
modifications/ accommodations to instruction or assessment may need to be
made? (Content? Process? Product?)
There are three students with exceptional needs. Two students are diagnosed with ADHD.
One student has anger management issues. There are several resources for these students
with exceptional needs in order to give them equal opportunities such their individualized
education programs and teacher aids. These particular students remain in the classroom as
much as possible, however they occasionally leave the classroom to work with their aids
if they need extra help on a specific topic or are behind. There is also a school social
worker as well a school counselor to support the all of the students in the classroom.
Objectives/Learner Outcomes and Assessments (formal and informal)
1.
For each of the above outcomes, what ASSESSMENTS will you use to evaluate each of
your learning outcomes? (Give a brief description).
I will assess these objectives by observing if students work provides a visual
understanding of the historical time period in Milwaukee, and it represented in their
room. Students will be assessed on if they explain the significance of each object in their
room and why it is important to the historical time period and essential to their room.

Section B: Introduction to Lesson
Purpose How will you state the purpose of the lesson?
The purpose of this lesson is to integrate art and history. Students will be learning about
the history of Milwaukee through creating visual representation of a historical time
period. Students will understand how each piece of Milwaukee history is essential to tell
the story of Milwaukee.
Prior learning What do students know? What can they do? What are they
learning to do? How will you make connections to prior learning?
Students have already learned about the timeline of Milwaukee history, through a direct
instruction lesson. I will connect that lesson to this one by revisiting the Milwaukee
timeline that we created as a class.
Connections to personal/cultural/community assets How will you make
connections to your students strengths as a way to motivate students to engage in
the learning activities you have planned? (HOOKS)
I will begin this lesson by introducing students to the artist, Narcissa Niblack Thorne. I
will show them her work and we will discuss her artwork. I will then have students get
out their Milwaukee history timelines that we previously created. Students will be
motivated because they will be actively creating a visual representation of Milwaukee
history.
