Identify the following components for a lesson you might want to teach: (1) intended grade level for instruction; (2) subject area; and (3) learning objective(s). (These components will be included in the essay in B.) A. Choose at least three instructional resources appropriate to your chosen grade level and subject area to use while teaching your chosen objectives. (At least one resource must be computer-based.)

1. For each resource, complete the Instructional Materials Evaluation Checklist, evaluating the resource against the checklist criteria. For future reference, add notes to justify your position on each resource.

Note: For each resource, provide a complete citation for easy location and describe the resource in a brief paragraph at the top of the checklist.

B. After completing the evaluation checklists, write an essay (suggested length of 1-2 pages) in which you:

1. Identify the lesson components you chose (i.e., grade level, subject area, learning objective).

2. Explain why you chose each resource you evaluated in A1. (Be sure to identify each resource you chose.)

3. Explain why each area in the evaluation checklist is important pedagogically. Use several of the specific criteria in each area as examples to show how each area is important pedagogically.

4. Explain why it is important to choose culturally appropriate and linguistically sensitive materials.

5. Explain why you would or would not decide to use each resource in the lesson. C. If you choose to use outside sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.
