Title: Mountains the Dramatic  Landform                                                   Subject/Course: Earth Science                                                         Topic: Earth Science                        Grade: 5                                                    Designer: Marilyn Baker
Stage 1- Desired Results
·         Established Goals: I want students to leave this lesson understanding the cause and effects of plate tectonics formation of mountains and describe two ways that mountains can form at convergent plate boundaries.
Understanding: ·         Landforms consist of: mountains, plateaus, plains, valleys, hills, and glaciers too ·         Plate tonics can collide ·         Natural forces cause different types of rocks to shift and move Essential Questions: ·         How could marine like fossils reach the top of Mount Everest? ·         What are mountains? ·         What are the effects when are mountains formed? ·         What do mountains tell us about the dynamic behavior of earth? Students will Know: ·         Mountain formations are a result of forces of erosion, volcanism or shifts in earth surface ·         When rocks are formed they become mountains ·         Rocks have layers that are horizontal Students will be able to ·         Reflect on different causes of mountain formation and what caused them ·         Solve the mystery of how fossils from the bottom of the ocean reached the tallest mountain in the world. ·         Explain how layered rocks are formed and they are sedimentary  and broken down               Assessment                                                Stage - 2 Evidence Performance Tasks: ·         3 Way Summaries-write informative text using different modes of thinking and attention to details to a question or the topic inquiry. Then write three different summaries. The student must use vocabulary domain words in responses. Other Evidence: ·         Round Robin-in groups, pass pictures of large rocks and share knowledge by answering open-ended questions. ·         3-2-1 Count Down 3 things you didn’t know before the topic 2 things that surprised you 1 thing you will start doing with what you learned
Stage 3- Learning Plan
Standards:    RST.11-12.7: evaluate multiple sources of information presented in diverse formats and media (e.g., quantitative data, video, multimedia) in order to address a question or solve a problem.”  CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.3 Explain the relationships or interactions between two or more individuals, events, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text based on specific information in the text. W= Opening, the teacher will peak students prior knowledge about landforms, and let them know where the lesson is going followed by essential questions H= Students will  watch Earth Space & Science this video http://www.learner.org/courses/essential/earthspace/session5/index.html  vocabulary words visible- convergent plate boundaries, formation, collide E= Pair share, student will discuss different ways forces of nature can change a landform and write on newsprint. R= Can use  3.2.1 Count Down to assess themselves E= Students will be given the opportunity to evaluate each other’s work T= Student will have a choice to draw a picture(s) or use clay O= by constructing a model with what could have made a rock surface change its physical features and become a mountain teacher observes well student maximizes initial and sustained engagement as well as effective learning Assessment: (formal & Informal) students in detail what two ways convergent boundaries are formed. Using either a drawing with horizontal lines to show rock formation or play doe. Red Robin/3.2.1 Count Down/
