Students will show they understand by writing a paragraph that tells about their rights and

responsibilities. They will also complete a lesson test to show they understand the concepts.H. Reflection:

1. Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for you to teach?

I think the easiest part to teach will be the actual reading and discussing the lesson.

2. Which part will be most challenging for you to teach?

I think some students may have a difficult time understanding the difference between a right and

a responsibility.

3. How will you follow up or extend this lesson?

As an extension to the lesson, I would use Extend Lesson 2 (p.216-217) Class President.

4. What can you do for students who dont grasp the concepts?

For the students who dont understand the concepts in this lesson, I would use the Reteaching

Minilesson -TE 215. They will use a descriptive wheel to reteach voting.

5. Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to change?

I like the lesson and I think I may have some more follow-up activities in the classroom.

6. When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most difficult part?
