Video2 Lesson Plan
1. Standards
Solve quadratic equations in one variable. Solve quadratic equations by taking square roots.
2. Teaching Model
Expository and Demonstration
Demonstration
TECHNIQUE 36: Means of Participation
-Volunteers
-Whiteboards
-Cold Call
-Everyone writes
3. Objective(s)
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to recognize an imaginary/complex number,
simplify square roots, and solve one-step quadratics by taking the square root.
4. Materials/Resources
Instructor’s exemplar
Bellringer
Elmo
Class set of whiteboards, markers, and erasers
5. Instructional Procedures
This lesson extends student knowledge of quadratics and solving equations. Students
apply prior knowledge/skills from Algebra I, such as taking the square root of a number
and the product property) to imaginary numbers to simplify radicals and take the square
root of a negative number.
Video2 Lesson plan 2
1. 00:00-00:10 Introduction/Bellringer
Instruct students to get out their Chromebook and get started on their FAM3L1
assignment on canvas
Circulate the room to grade students notes based on correction out of 10
If students finish early, students are to re-do open FA as the quarter grades are clsong
If students finish early, they may start gathering and preparing all their warmups to be
turned in next class
c. Closure
Recap the day’s objective. Reiterate the goal is to recognize imaginary numbers and
simply square root. Inform students during our next class, we will extend on example
three, solve by taking the square root.
d. Extension/Contingency Plan
If the lesson needs to be cut short significantly, assign the canvas assignment as
homework
If an abundant amount of time is left and a majority of students are finishing early, give
students an exit ticket. “simplify the square roots √−81 √ 322 √ 8”
Possible accommodations:
Possible modifications
7. Assessment/Evaluation of Learning
Formative: Active observation of students' whiteboard activity and on their canvas assignment.
8. Homework Assignment
No homework is required as the objective will be met in class. Students who did not
finish their canvas assignment titled “FA M3L1” may finish at home
9. Post-Lesson Reflection
At the end of the lesson, students finish their multiple-choice formative assessment assignment
quickly so they can get on their phones. When the assignment is on canvas it is hard to check
their score to ensure they reached the objective of scoring an 80%. Next time, I will try to chunk
the lesson, so students are working the entire class period and try a paper assignment, so students
do not rush and have their assignment checked before turning it in. This will ensure the target
score is met and misconceptions can be addressed in class rather than the next day after getting
on canvas and looking through the assignments.
