In Week 1, you selected a standard for your unit plan along with three measurable learning objectives. This is the first step in creating any type of lesson or unit plan as we must know what knowledge we want our learners to acquire. Since we are following the backward design model for developing lesson plans, the next thing is to create our assessments: the evidence that will let us know our learners are acquiring the knowledge.
