STANDARDS-BASED SCENARIO
TASK: Using the National Standards for Foreign Languages as a guide, write a scenario for elementary, middle or high school
Be sure to include the following information in your final written plan:
| Identify the age group this unit will be developed for (high school/middle school) as well as language level (1, ii, iii) |
| Clearly identify the main purpose of the unit, its theme, objectives for your students, and the National Standards that are addressed. |
| State the specific NEW content that will be covered including language functions and structures. |
| Try to find an authentic reading or listening segment for the students and include culture. |
| Develop a series of pre-reading, listening/post-reading, listening activities to prepare the students to work with the realia. |
| There must be evidence of effective contextualized language instruction |
| all overheads, reading or listening selections, and sample of activities should be included. |
| Include a copy of the examination/evaluation tools you will use to assess student performance (This will be turned in about 2 weeks AFTER the Scenario and AFTER we have discussed authentic testing.) |
| Include times estimates for each day (should be at least two days) |
| Be detailed enough to allow someone to replicate your teaching. |
