Unit of Instruction

Unit of Instruction is the framework of extended curriculum because they organize a variety  of experience, skills, knowledge , and assignments. This allows students to master many things.

ABCDs of writing objectives

Write a post about the ABCDs of writing objectives.   For fun (and practice) write an objective for your child, husband, room mate, etc., about something you wish they did a bit better.  Here is an objective I wrote for my husband:  Given the correct cleaning supplies, Bob will clean and polish the stove with 90% accuracy. A is for Audience B is for Behavior C is for Condition D is for Degree After watching the video how to flood towel correctly, My boyfriend will food towels properly with 90% accuracy.  I was very happy to learn about the ABCDs of writing objectives because this allowed me to have a better understand on how to properly do it. I'm still little worried about writing them because I feel that this is one of the most difficult things to do.
