Cross-Curricular Competencies:
Developing thinking: This lesson will help students develop their thinking by asking them to make judgements
on ancient crimes and think critically about the ways that laws today are set up. It will also help them to draw
connections between ancient laws and the laws in Canada today.
Outcome(s):PA9.1 – Examine concepts of power and authority in the governance of the societies studied.
Stage 2- Assessment
Assessment FOR Learning (formative) Assess the students during the learning to help determine next steps.
They will take the critical thinking skills that they used in the group activity and apply them to the individual
work sheets they will do at the end of the lesson. This will allow me to ensure that they understood the lesson
and the sheets will be handed in after class.
Assessment OF Learning (summative) Assess the students after learning to evaluate what they have learned.
Stage 3- Learning Plan
Adaptations/Differentiation:
In future I may cut out the reading of the class’s answers in order to give them more time for the closing
assignment.
Closing of lesson:
After this activity I will hand out the work sheet on Hammurabi and have them complete the activity on it. I will
supply them with current crime stories that they can choose from so they can answer the questions on the
work sheet. (15 mins)
Personal Reflection:
I loved this activity and will try to use it in the future. The students really enjoyed the lesson and most of them
were very engaged in the learning. Most of the feedback I got from my partner teacher included advice in
improving my classroom management skills. I will keep this advice in mind and do my best to learn from this
experience.
