Differentiation
Some students may be overwhelmed by too much information presented on one sheet. For example, the Ifthen activity may have too many options present. So, Juliette will complete this activity in two sections. She will be given one worksheet initially with only three ifthen options. When that has been completed, she will receive the second worksheet to complete the following three sentences. This should eliminate her being overwhelmed from too much text on one page.
The Ifthen worksheet as is will be beneficial for Bob and Diana. Bob has an extensive knowledge of Social Studies since it is a passion of his. Diana will benefit from the sentence structures being laid out for her.
Summary
The teacher will direct all of the students onto the carpet. The students will also be told to bring their Venn diagram homework from the previous night.
The teacher will prompt the lesson by reviewing the poster board from the previous day that is entitled Reasons for immigrating The teacher will mention things in particular such as the Irish potato famine and religious persecution in England. The teacher will ask the students what they notice about situations such as these. The teacher will take a 1-minute thinking break.
The teacher will then select some students to voice what they notice about these situations.
The teacher will add onto the students answers and explain that often, groups of people in a certain country would immigrate in trends to America.
The teacher will collect everyones homework assignments in the black melting pot again.
The teacher will show the students the chart on page 87, which will be also provided in a large poster on the board. The teacher will emphasize that these times were when it was common for members of the specified countries to immigrate to America these immigrants were not limited to those times.
The teacher will then allow students to comment if any of the times when their ancestors immigrated fall into the trends for their country of origin.
