COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, HEALTH AND REHABILITATION LESSON PLAN FORMAT**     **__Objectives __**   Maine Learning Results: English Language Arts- A. Reading A2 Literary Texts Grades 9-diploma __The Fountainhead__ Students read text, within a grade appropriate span of text complexity, and present analyzes of fiction, nonfiction, drama and poetry using excerpts from the text to defend their assertions. d) Evaluate the theme or themes, whether explicitly stated or implied in a literary text.  Students will understand that the author's tone conveys the purpose of __The Fountainhead.__  I will join the class discussion on the author's tone to ask probing questions of the students to help them think about __The Fountainhead__. They can then rethink their thoughts on tone and on the project.I will also review the iMovie with them in a one on one conference to suggest changes before the final project is due.The students will then make any final changes they feel will improve their video. Students will self assess their learning by grading their own iMovie on the rubric I will provide for it. They will also answer the questions "What did you learn?" "How hard was this project? What was the most difficult? The easiest?" "Are you happy with your project? Why?" Students will discuss the author's tone in class together. They will then create an iMovie on tone. I will asses this iMovie with a rubric I will make.  Teacher- I am using technology by using a video as my hook for this lesson. Student- The students will be using technology when they create their iMovie. Music- Students will be asked to think of what kind of music best describes the author's tone musically. I will divide the class up into number heads groups by sending each student randomly to a corner of the room. The numbered heads group will work together to answer questions I will ask them and then they will report out to the class when I call on them. One student in each group will be recording the answers the group decides on, two of the students will look up supporting evidence from __The Fountainhead__, and one will be the spokesperson for the group. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Absent Students: Students who are absent from this lesson will be given a graphic organizer to fill out with the help of a classmate while discussing the author's tone in the novel. Most of this lesson will be a discussion so I will briefly go over what was talked about in class with them and give them any notes on the author's philosophy that I gave the class.

<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The video my students will make will be type two because of the different effects and sounds they can use to enhance the video and add their own personal interpretation on tone. I can make the hook type two by having students post their videos in response to the video I show them. In order to adjust this lesson to appropriate levels of content I would be willing to allow some uses of cliff notes and to allow students to listen to the book on tape. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Graphic Organizer Handout Laptop Projector __The Fountainhead__ <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -The Ayn Rand institute gives some lesson plans and other resources to teachers on teaching __The Fountainhead.__ <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -Also from the Ayn Rand institute, this site gives an explanation of some of the themes of __The Fountainhead__ <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -A good site offering good information on the novel, the characters and the themes. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -Graphic organizer to be used to help students organize thoughts and evidence of tone. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -The website where I found the cooperative group I will use in this lesson. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> -Youtube video on tone for the lesson hook. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Beach Ball- Students with this learning style require variety, choices, participation and fun. To meet the needs of these students I will make sure they will have plenty of freedom in how to do their video on tone. I will give them lots of choices in what evidence from the book to use and will try to give some opportunities for movement. Puppy- These learners like group work, they want a safe environment, and they want consensus. To meet the needs of these learners I will encourage my students to participate in all discussions and to work together to reach an answer. I will make sure that all students are listened to and respected by both me and their peers. Microscope- These learners like to focus on supporting details, dig for evidence and analyze. I will meet the needs of these learners by asking them to do just that in their discussion of __The Fountainhead__ and Ayn Rand's tone. Clipboard- These learners need clear instructions, set procedures and likes structure. I will meet these needs by mapping out the activities in the class so there is a clear set of instructions and so that the class will feel more structured without impeding on the choices that the Beach Ball learners need. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The Maine Learning Result that I chose to address in the unit is teaching students to evaluate themes either explicitly stated or implied. A large theme in __The Fountainhead__ is Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism. This can be seen in many areas of the book including in the author's tone. This lesson intends to look at the author's tone in order to uncover the implied theme of Objectivism in it. This lesson incorporates the Multiple Intelligence theory in order to try and reach all students in the way that they learn best. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The video my students will make will be type two because of the different effects and sounds they can use to enhance the video and add their own personal interpretation on tone.

The classroom will be setup in a half circle around the screen where the video will be playing. I will sit in a desk and watch the video with my students. I will remain there to discuss the video before moving on to the other activities for the day. Agenda <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Student will understand that the author's tone conveys the purpose of __The Fountainhead__. It connects to real life because understanding a writer's tone helps figure out the meaning of the writing. //MLR: Students read text, within a grade appropriate span of text complexity, and present analyzes of fiction, nonfiction, drama and poetry using excerpts from the text to defend their assertions//.I will hook my students by showing them this YouTube video <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[| http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDUhDV-72S0] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">[] <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> on tone and mood words upon beginning the class.

Students will know the author's philosophy behind __The Fountainhead.__ I will present this information to my students by first having a conversation with the students on tone and why that tone is used in this particular book. Then I will give a handout on the author's philosophy and go over it with them. Graphic Organizer: Students will use the Cluster Web2 from the website www.eduplace.com/graphicorganizers to organize their thoughts on tone and their examples. Time: 20 Minutes
 * (Equip, Explore, Rethink)** Tailor- **Naturalist, Logical, Visual, Kinesthetic, Verbal, Musical**

Cooperative groups: Numbered Heads Together. I will randomly break the students up into four groups by sending them to the east, west, south and north corners of the room. I will join the class discussion on the author's tone to ask probing questions of the students to help them think about The Fountainhead. They can then rethink their thoughts on tone and on the project. I will also review the iMovie with them in a one on one conference to suggest changes before the final project is due. The students will then make any final changes they feel will improve their video. Time: 50 Minutes
 * (Experience, Rethink, Revisions, Refine)** Tailor- **Verbal, Interpersonal**

Students will self assess their learning by grading their own iMovie on the rubric I will provide for it. They will also answer the questions "What did you learn?" "How hard was this project? What was the most difficult? The easiest?" "Are you happy with your project? Why?" Time: 5 Minutes

<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">In the next lesson we will be discussing the characters. Students will be ready to discuss what Ayn Rand’s tone is when she discusses the characters. This will help them figure out how Ayn Rand subtly reveals her characters.
 * Evaluate**: The iMovie will then be turned into me and I will grade it with a rubric. The students will be given the option to present it to the class next time.
