Hi Yiwei! Your unit plan is coming along very nicely -- good work. Good rationale, assessment plan, project and sequence of classes. Here are some further suggestions to get this unit ready to teach on the long practicum: • You need to create a project handout for the students listing all the criteria, timeline and evaluation details along with an example of the project to help them understand what they need to do. •In the project assessment, leave an (at least) equal space for teacher assessment along with self and peer assessment, so that you can communicate your evaluation of the project. •Lesson 1 has a fun activity, but I think it is too elementary for Grade 10 students, who will already have learned to plot points on the Cartesian plane in Grades 7-9. Check the previous grades' curriculum topics, and design a different activity suitable for Grade 10 curriculum. •Lesson 5 has an unfinished sentence at the end of the page. Perhaps it ran off the page in some way? Please fix this up.
Thanks, and have fun teaching this interesting unit!
