Objective
Objective
Today we will:
• determine what concepts and skills your students will
need to know prior to completing the task
• determine which of those concepts and skills are new
learning
• create lessons for those ideas.
Prior Knowledge
What were the learning goals you
expect for your students when they
complete one of the performance
tasks you created yesterday?
As you read Marzano’s article, “The
Perils and Promises of Discovery
Learning”, identify the following by
drawing shapes and making notes in
the margins.
FYI: This reading strategy, text coding with
symbols, can be done with post-it notes if
they are reading something on which they
cannot write.
Determine what concepts and skills Mr.
Carpenter taught prior to starting this task.
A practitioner can take away two conclusions from these
disparate findings: First, unassisted discovery learning is perilous
to student learning; second, enhanced discovery learning can be
a useful instructional tool.
-Marzano
Objectives:
We will be able to identify materials that
will act as conductors or insulators of
electricity.
Prior Knowledge
closed circuit
This is a closed circuit because ____
and the electricity _______________.
Prior Knowledge
open circuit
This is an open circuit because ____
and the electricity _______________.
Concept: The Big Idea
Electricity likes to travel, but can only travel
through certain special materials.
Remember, our objective today is to be
able to identify materials that will act as
conductors or insulators of electricity.
Concept: The Big Idea
Conductors: Materials which
allow electricity to travel
_______
shine
and the light to ___________.
This mystery material must be a conductor because ____.
Concept: The Big Idea
If the material is a
conductor of electricity
the light will shine!
Why?
If the material is a conductor of
electricity the light will shine because
_____________________________.
the material allows electricity to
travel through it and back to the
battery to close the circuit.
Concept: The Big Idea
Insulators: Materials which
_______
stop the flow of electricity
and ______
block the light from
shining.
This mystery material must be an insulator because ____.
Concept: The Big Idea
If the material is an
insulator of electricity
the light will not
shine!
Why?
If the material is an insulator of electricity
the light will not shine because
______________________________.
the
material does not allow
electricity to travel through it so the
circuit stays open.
Concept: The Big Idea
Think-Pair-Share: How will you know if
a material is a conductor or an insulator
of electricity?
Why?
If the material is an
insulator of electricity
the light will not shine!
If the material is a
conductor of electricity
the light will shine!
Skill: Teacher Models
Explore the materials to find which will act as conductors or insulators
of electricity by following these
STEPS:
1. Select an item
2. Think
• What is it made from?
3. Make a prediction

• Will the material act as an insulator and stop the light from
shining?
4. Test
5. Record your finding

Relevance
Our homes are filled with items that use electricity. We
need to be aware of the materials that act as
conductors or insulators of electricity because:
1. We can choose appropriate items made from
materials that will stop electricity and protect
children – plastic outlet covers.
2. We will know to replace electric items that have
damaged insulation and exposed wires.
3. A reason of your own.
Reason number ____ is most relevant to me because

Difference Between Concept and Skill
•In the concept section of your lesson, you taught
your students what they were learning, what it
looks like, and what it means; however, they were
not ready to actually do anything with that
information yet….
•The skill describes how the students will interact
with the concept and the steps they will take to
demonstrate learning.

Audience
Peers
Situation
You are a pioneer in the late 1800s and live in a log cabin on the
plains. Electricity has now become available to the region. You have
read newspaper articles about an inventor named Edison and his new
appliances for the home. You will work in small groups to discuss the
pros and cons of this technology, and figure out how to safely modify
your log cabin to incorporate electricity.
Product
Your group will design and construct a log cabin (shoe box) including
the new technology of electricity (simple circuits). The group will
design a blueprint to scale including a diagram of electrical wiring.
Measurements must be accurate for the ordering of materials, such as
wire, bulbs, and batteries. Materials will be ordered using the correct
forms from the class supply clerk. Completed designs will
demonstrate the use of electric circuits to light the cabin safely
Standards and Criteria [Indicators]
Completed designs will demonstrate the use of electric circuits to light
the cabin safely
