Board Template for Unit Design
The Unit Design board template for schools helps teachers develop agile thinking by guiding them through a structured process for lesson planning. It emphasizes key steps like brainstorming, refinement, and celebrating progress, which become natural habits in both teaching and student learning.
- Essential Question: Teachers start by developing an open-ended essential question that shapes the unit. They brainstorm ideas aligned with standards, refine them to ensure assessable mastery, and celebrate the final outcome.
- Learn & Practice: Next, teachers brainstorm diverse resources to engage different learners, refine the list to focus on high-quality materials, and celebrate the completion of resource selection.
- Practice: Teachers then group resources and create hands-on learning activities designed to promote deeper knowledge synthesis.
- Rubrics: The process concludes with developing multiple rubrics, both content- and skill-based, to assess student learning. These rubrics offer flexibility for student input and encourage reflection before and after work submission.
