This first grade class will engage in a language arts literacy lesson focusing on
comprehension and how the 5 Ws of a written text helps key out details in finding the central
message of a story. The variability in the classroom is to be met completely with the appropriate
accommodations made for those necessary and create an equal learning environment for all to
reach the same success level. Applying the UDL guidelines throughout the lesson allows the
teacher to meet the needs of this diverse group of students which consists of a child with visual
impairment (low incidence), a child with attention deficit hyperactive disorder (high incidence),
an English language learner natively from Russia, and a gifted and talented student who is
capable of reading and comprehending two grade levels above his peers. UDL principle I:
providing multiple means of representation includes providing options for comprehension and
guiding information processing, visualization, and manipulation which relates to how the teacher
will provide the guided handout on what the 5 Ws are and examples of them to keep track while
reading. This works for multiple students in the classroom including all of those mentioned
above because it gives an opportunity to reinforce the information that they previously were
introduced to in group time before breaking up into independent reading. UDL principle II:
providing multiple means for action and expression includes varying methods for response and
navigation, optimizing access to tools and assistive technologies and guiding appropriate goal
setting. The lesson plan takes account for multiple individuals needs and capabilities creating
options for formative and summative assessments engaging the students best suited towards their
strengths. Giving the group of students options to express their gained knowledge and
understanding of the lesson is shown through the multiple means for their action and expression.
UDL principle III: providing multiple means of engagement includes minimizing threats and
distractions and fostering collaboration and community. This is demonstrated throughout the
