Know
The students will know that
the crust, mantle, outer
core, and inner core make
up the layers of the Earth.
Students will know that
imbalances in the layers can
cause different reactions.
Do
Students will be able to
label all layers of the Earth.
Students will depict
interactive pictures of the
descriptions in their notes
of each layer.
D. ASSESSING LEARNING
Since this is just an introduction to the lesson, students will not really be assessed until
they do their homework. I will give them a sheet that they can fill out after going through
the notes in class to see if they understand the information.

STANDARDS if required)

- Students will have pencils and I will provide worksheets for them.
G. PROCEDURE
H. DIFFERENTIATION
When taking notes, students can sometimes get distracted or off topic, so I will walk
around the room as they are taking notes to keep them on task. While they are drawing
their interactive pictures I will also ask them why they drew what they did to reinforce
the new material that they are learning.
I. WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH THIS LESSON AND WHAT WILL YOU
DO ABOUT IT?
Students may not understand this information right away. If this is the case, I will slow
the note taking process down and explain everything in more depth. This will allow us to
focus on more information at once for better understanding. If students cannot see the
board, I will tell them to move to somewhere in the room quietly with a clipboard to see
the board better.
