    in developmentally appropriate, culturally responsive and meaningful ways.

    determine next steps.

    payments etc. Explain steps in group and individual settings.

    Stage 3- Learning Plan


    Motivational/Anticipatory Set (introducing topic while engaging the students)
    Starting with the question: How many of you wish school taught you something
    applicable to life? Well this assignment will be one of the most life applicable you take.

    Main Procedures/Strategies:
    Find a career by taking a career quiz, choose a piece of paper out of a hat (piece of
    paper includes: Spouse, income of spouse, and number of children), Fill in a spread
    sheet that determines your families living expenses and savings for the month of March

    Closing of lesson:
    Ask students to write a reflection statement on their biggest struggles in the assignment
    and two things they learnt from the assignment.

    Personal Reflection: I thought this lesson went well, I got a lot of questions throughout the
    research time of the project which tells me that I should have gone over more information

    in the larger group setting. With that being said this particular class was loud and talking
    throughout much of the explanation so it might have been best to try and think of a
    different way to present the information. Perhaps making a video of me explaining would
    quiet the chatter. This is a fun assignment and you could tell the kids were really getting
    into it as a lot of them went home and asked a lot of questions from their parents and
    came back with their responses.
