With the exception of Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat on the bus, most eighth-grade students at Garden Spot Middle School have limited prior knowledge of the Civil Rights Movement and Martin Luther King, Jr. Today’s lesson will touch upon the sit-ins but really focus on Dr. King’s I have a Dream speech.

Overview:
This lesson will revolve around authentic instructional practices, namely higher-order thinking skills, depth of knowledge, substantive discussions, real life relevancy, and higher-order technologies. It will also allow for differentiated instruction, flexible groupings, and multiple modalities. The activating strategy will be a YouTube video entitled, Civil Rights Movement Greensboro & Nashville Sit-Ins. There will be a realistic visual, analogical visual, organizational visual, and relational visual in this plan. This lesson will also allow for scaffolding, different groupings, plus meet the needs of all learners, namely visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile. Lastly, it includes the utilization of technology in every activity and assessment.

General Characteristics:
Eighth-grade students at Garden Spot Middle School are primarily Caucasian and come from low to middle socioeconomic families. Although the demographics are slowly changing, this particular school district services very few minority students.
New Holland is an extremely conservative and religious community. Most students belong to youth groups and often go on weekend retreats and summer mission trips. They are a very generous group of people. Unfortunately, college is not emphasized at home by too many parents. A large percentage of students graduate from high school and choose to work on the family farm or work for a local business.
Entry Competencies:
Students know how to employ the technologies required for today’s lesson, namely Youtube, Padlet, Canvas, Google docs, Google translate, Google scholar, and wiki.
Learning Styles: This lesson will address the needs of all learning modalities, namely visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile learners.
