Integrated Standards Based Lesson Plan
To be credentialed in California, teacher candidates must successfully create two Standards Based Lesson Plan that incorporates health education. With growing budget concerns, it is essential to be able to teach health across the spectrum of subject areas.
For this assignment, you are to create health education lessons that are tailored to a specific grade, or range (3rd grade, middle school, 9th grade, or high school) and a specific instructional area (e.g. art, history, chemistry, music, English, etc). Your plan must be clear and concise enough to be utilized by a substitute in your classroom.
Instructional time period or block
How long will it take to complete your lesson? It might be one class period or several. How many minutes is your class period? Is this a "stand alone" lesson you would use with kindergartners for 20 minutes? Or a more in-depth study with high school science students?
Related subject-specific California Common Core standards
Related California health education content standards
Quote the overarching standard(s) and include the standard number
Quote the content area(s) for your grade
Quote the specific standard(s) applicable to your lesson plan.
You must use California health standards from the California Department of Education website, not educational codes or national health standards.
A minimum of 2 instructional/performance objectives
What will your students learn from your lesson? At least one objective needs to be health-related, and one needs to be subject-specific related. Example of a health-related objective: "Students will describe the ways that the flu virus can be spread." These objectives should relate directly to the standards.
Learning Activity/Procedure
What are you going to do with your students? Be specific!! This is usually the longest section of the lesson plan. Each objective must be reflected in an activity or procedure.
List of materials/resources
What materials do you need to teach your lesson? (May include scissors and paper for an art class, a calculator for a math class, etc).
Do not attach the materials, just list what materials you would use
Strategies to help English language learners meet objectives
How will you help English language learners with your lesson? Hint: a translator is not always available, so be creative in ways to overcome this barrier!
