Clearly integrate instruction and assessments so that standards, learning targets/objectives, learning activities, and assessments are all aligned
For this assignment, use the “3-Day Unit Plan Template” to create a 3-day instructional unit plan and summative assessments designed for the students outlined in the “Class Profile” in the K-8 grade level of your choice. Use your California mathematics standards to select 1-3 math standards from one domain (number and operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, or data analysis and probability) to represent and teach in the unit. Complete the following when designing your unit:
• Clearly integrate instruction and assessments so that standards, learning targets/objectives, learning activities, and assessments are all aligned
• Use a variety of teaching strategies and technologies that encourage the students’ development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills
• Create opportunities for active inquiry, collaboration, and supportive interaction in the elementary classroom using effective verbal, nonverbal, and media communication techniques
• While APA style format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
A unit plan integrates multiple standards informing a mathematical concept and is taught in multiple lessons over several days. The large-scale planning process outlines activities that complement one another to ensure a successful learning experience for all students.
When planning units, educators must begin with the standards, learning targets/objectives, and summative assessment. Keeping the end learning goals in mind allows educators to plan the lessons to ensure students stay focused on what is important. Alignment between standards, learning objectives, instruction, and assessment provides a clear direction for both teachers and students. When students understand the goal of the lesson and all instruction, activities, and assessment are aligned, they are more likely to master the skill or concept.

Critically appraise leadership and communication styles and skills in light of relevant theoretical frameworks
Marwell International School in Manchester England is in a process of change.
A recent inspection report identified some key areas of concern around the leaderships and management of the school.
A new Principal who leads within a distributed leadership framework, has developed a 3year strategic plan that includes a full curriculum review and a new performance management system as well as a new organisational structure.
You have been recruited to head up one of the new departments within the school. The Principal has asked you to write a report to discuss how you would lead the department and to identify your own management skills, expertise and areas for development.
They provide you with the following information on which to base your report.
• The new department will bring together two independent departments who currently employ nine members of staff.
Two teachers have been at the college for over 15 years, three others are recently qualified.
Last year two teachers left after less than a year in the department and another member of staff is returning after maternity leave.
• A recent internal inspection indicated that the quality of learning was below standard in most classes and that student progress records had not been kept.
• The student test results have declined over the last 4 years.
• The budget to the new department has been cut by 10% for next year as the school is in a difficult financial situation.
• The new team will need to review the curriculum content and the teaching and learning pedagogy deployed.
• You will need to implement the new performance management system with your team.
Importantly, as part of your own performance management, the Principal has requested that you evaluate your current management skills and expertise together with the areas for your professional development.
Your report (3000 words) must be evidenced based and draw on academic research and recent studies on leadership in schools.
