Escribir una carta persuasiva
This lesson was intended to be delivered in a face-to-face classroom environment. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, this lesson has been modified from its original design to be executed in a virtual setting.
This virtual lesson was designed to prepare students to communicate familiar topics in the presentational writing mode in the target language. Students will act as a college advisor and respond to a prospective student’s email regarding housing options. Students will then peer evaluate each other’s writing and provide meaningful feedback using a rubric.
Uncovering Tone in Poetry
Students will interpret the tone of a poem, cite text evidence to justify their response, and research a synonym for the word they chose to expand their understanding of Tier 2 vocabulary.
Teacher introducing the poem
Syntax Shuffle
Students will analyze one of four ways to incorporate grammar and syntax into their everyday language through the use of technological instruction. Once students have comprehended their grammatical type, they will practice among their peers to master and share the lesson (grammar rule) in a Jigsaw activity.
15 OnTRACK English II Reading: Understanding and Analysis of Literary Text
OnTRACK English II Reading, Module 3, Lessons 1–12, and Practice Lessons 1–3. Students understand, make inferences and draw conclusions about the structure and elements of poetry, drama, fiction, and literary non-ficton, and provide evidence from text to support their understanding.
8 Chapter 5: Introduction to Trigonometry and Graphs
In this chapter, we will explore angle measures and the trigonometric ratios, including graphing and inverses.
5 Chapter 7: Sequences and Series
In this chapter, we introduce sequences and series, some of their applications, and the Binomial Theorem.
3 Chapter 4: Systems of Equations
In this chapter, we will explore the methods used to solve systems of equations, and real-world situations involving systems of equations.
6 Chapter 2: Polynomial and Rational Functions
In this chapter, we will explore beyond linear functions and learn about polynomial and rational functions.
8 Chapter 6: Trigonometric Identities and Applications
In this chapter, students will learn a robust list of trigonometric identities along with their applications. Students will also be introduced to vectors.
7 Chapter 8: Conic Sections, Parametric Equations, and Polar Coordinates
In this chapter, we introduce conic sections, parametric equations, and polar coordinates.
5 Chapter 1: Introduction to Functions and Graphs
In this chapter, students are introduced to lines, functions, and graphs of functions.
8 Chapter 3: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions
In this chapter, students are introduced to exponential and logarithmic functions. Students will learn about the functions' graphs, how to solve equations involving those functions, and their real-world applications.
Square Root Regression
This lesson is a student discovery lesson that culminates in square root regression with technology. Students will use their study of inverses, the relationship between quadratic and square root functions, their previous knowledge of regression, and determine how to find the square root regression of real-world data.
