Possible Methods of Starting a Unit
In this section of the unit plan you are to provide at least three (required) or maximum five (exceeds) Starting activities - Anticipatory Sets - for the unit plan. Be creative - imagine you teach 3/5 different groups of students and want to be different with all of them. Choose a poem, or a video clip, or a puzzle. Remember it should be brief -- 3 to 5 minutes.
Provide the description of how you will pre-assess students' prior knowledge, focus them on the new theme/topic and motivate students to study the upcoming unit. Keep in mind, you invite your students to the unknown topic.
Follow the provided format for each of the 3 (5) Starting Activities:
1. Set # + "A Catchy title."
2. An Objective.
3. A Description of the set: what and how you will do it to:
- pre-assess students' prior knowledge,
- focus, transfer and
- motivate them to learn the new Unit Plan theme.
4. In the end of all the anticipatory sets write once the conclusion: what the unit plan will be about and why it is important to study it. Address this wrapping up statement to the students.
