Throughout this lesson I will know that students have learned from a few different things. Students are going to be asked to work in pairs and do research on a specific type of drug. They are asked to find out specific information about their drug and interview someone that has had experience with the drug such as a doctor or a user. Students will then be asked to present their research in a blog and present what they found to the class. I will use the student’s blog and presentation to gather evidence on what they have learned throughout this assignment. Students will also be asked to take part in a discussion at the beginning of class on why drugs and alcohol are bad and they think that people use them and then abuse them. This class discussion will allow me to see what students already know and then after completion of the assignment, what they have learned. Students will be assessed on their interview and blog through a rubric which I will provide to students at the beginning of the class. Students will be asked to follow this rubric and will receive a total amount of points out of 30. I will also be assessing students by their participation in the class discussion. Students will also be asked to comment on each person’s blog and share something that they learned from that team’s presentation. This assessment meets the objectives and the MLR because students will be presenting side effects of drugs and the consequences for using their drug. __ Verbal __ : Students will be presenting in front of the class and will be asked to speak clearly and loud enough for everyone to hear. This will give students with high verbal skills the opportunity to use this learning strategy. __Writing__: Students will be writing blogs and interviews on the information they found about their drug and these blogs are expected to be well written with no grammar or spelling mistakes. __Technology__: At the beginning of the class I will be showing students videos on drug and alcohol abuse as well as pictures of before drug use and after. Students will be using the internet to find research on their drug and to blog about their drug as well. Students will also be asked to comment on one another's blog by sharing something that they learned about their classmate’s drug. Students will be working on this project in pairs. I will give every student a list of drugs which they will be doing research on and each student will be asked to pick the top 3 drugs that they are interested in learning about. I will then do my best to pair up the people who had similar interests on a specific drug. Students will then work together to find research, create a blog and to present their information to the class. Each pair will receive a grade out of 30 on their interview and blog. Students are asked to do an even amount of research and talking for their presentations. I will make it clear to the class that all students are expected to do an equal amount of work. If a pair is experiencing a problem with this, they will be asked to see me so we can solve the problem. __ Interpersonal __ : Students will be given the opportunity to work with a fellow classmate as well as to interview someone. This will allow them to work with other people meeting the standards of an interpersonal student. __Linguistic__: Students are being asked to write interview questions and to write a blog on what they have learned. __Intrapersonal__: Students are asked to reflect on why they wouldn't or would want to use drugs and then reflect on why they think other people would want to use drugs. __Bodily-Kinesthetic__: Students will be given the opportunity to get up and get a laptop in order to do research on their drug. This will give students the chance to move around and get out of their seat for a bit. __Logical-Mathematical__: This will be met when students are asked to think about why people use drugs and what they believe their logic behind it is. __Verbal:__ Students will be given the opportunity to present what they learned about their drug and present their interview. This allows students to speak to the class and participate in a discussion. I will review students IEP, 504s and ELLIDEP and make the appropriate modifications and accommodations. If a student cannot complete this assignment due to personal reasons I will provide them with an alternative assignment. If a student is absent they will be expected to see me upon their return to school. I will go over the class discussion we had during class and present them with the crossword puzzle on drug and alcohol. I then explain to them what their assignment is and ask that student if they would like to join a group or to complete the assignment alone. If a student would like to join an already existing group they will be expected to go ask the other group members if they can join and find a way to participate and help the group out. If they chose to work alone I will provide them with a drug to research and expect them to complete the same assignment as the class. I will be providing students with a crossword puzzle on drug and alcohol abuse. (Type I) With this students will participate in a quick discussion about what they already know about drug abuse and what kinds of peer pressure they face when it comes to these types of things. I will then show students a few clips on substance prevention as well as some teen facts. (Type II) I will then have students do research on the drug which they have been assigned (Type II) and interview a person with experience on that drug. Students will presenting the information they found on a blog. Student’s blogs will also be asked to contain some external links in order to show videos, pictures and any other sites which they chose. (Type II) and all students will be asked to comment on their fellow classmates blogs (Type II). By using both these type I and type II technologies I will be able to meet the needs and standards of all students.

I will then tell the class a little bit about what we are doing in class today. Next I will provide students with a list of drugs and ask them to write down their top 3. I will then pass out a crossword puzzle on drugs and alcohol and ask the students to complete it. This will allow me to see what students already know about drugs and alcohol and get them engaged with what we will be learning about today. I will also show students two short clips. One will show students the faces of drug users and the other clip will present students with information on teen substance abuse. While students are watching the clips and finishing their crossword puzzle I will make pairs as best I can based on the students top choices. When students have completed the crossword puzzle we will have a quick discussion on why people chose to use and abuse drugs and whether or not they feel any peer pressure to do drugs. Once the discussion is completed I will pair students up with their partners. The desks will be arranged in rows and I will have students move their desks next to their partner. I will give a brief overview of what the students will be asked to find out about their drug and how they will be asked to blog about it. I will hand each pair a question of interview questions to think of and a sheet on facts to research about their drug. From this lesson students will be learning about what some of the consequences are to abusing drugs and what the side effects of their drugs are. **What, Where, Why, Hook, Tailor: Spatial, Verbal, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal and Logical.** Students will then be asked to get a computer so they can begin doing their research on their drug. Students will be researching and recording different facts and statistics they find out about their drug. Students will also be asked to think about who they can interview and if they have no one in mind they can find a doctor or user to e-mail online. Students will know facts about how drugs and alcohol can harm their bodies and the consequences they face when they abuse them. I will be prompting the class through a short discussion but mostly asking them about what they already know about drug abuse. I will expect each member of the pair to do equal work throughout the project and students will have the remainder of the class period to do research or whatever they would like to do in order to work on their assignment. ** Equip, Tailor: Verbal, Interpersonal, Logical and Bodily-Kinesthetic ** When students finish their blog and interview they will present them at a later date which will give students the opportunity to present what they have learned. Students will be asked to present information on their drugs such as; the side effects of using it, the high users experience, medical uses of drug, why people use it etc. Students will also include external links within their blogs including any videos, pictures or interesting sites which they found and would like to share with the class. This project will allow students to think about how drugs and alcohol can be very harmful to our bodies and can do serious damage to our personal health. It is important for everyone to know how each drug can seriously harm any chance of having a healthy lifestyle. When it comes time for presentations each team of partners will be asked to report their findings to the class allowing every student to learn about all the different drugs. Students will then have a wrap up discussion and reflect on what they learned about drug/alcohol abuse and talk about why it is a bad idea to use them. **Explore, Experience, Rethink, Revise, Tailor: Intrapersonal, Verbal, Logical, and Interpersonal.** This assignment will allow students to think about why or why not they would want to use drugs and allow them to see what would happen if they were to abuse drugs. The students will be assessed on completion of their crossword puzzle and participation in both class discussions. Students will then be assessed on their blogs and presentations. Each team will be receiving a score out of a total 30 points. Students will be asked to follow rubric checklist and if they do not follow it correctly then students will lose points. This lesson will help students to make better choices in the future when they are faced with situations that involve drug and alcohol. **Evaluate**
 * __ Maine __****__ Standards for Initial Teacher Certification and Rationale __**
 * // Standard 3 - Demonstrates a knowledge of the diverse ways in which students learn and develop by providing learning opportunities that support their intellectual, physical, emotional, social, and cultural development. //**
 * Rationale ** : This Maine Standard for Initial Teacher Certification will be met by using different types of intelligences and learning strategies. The handouts in this lesson allow students to feel organized with visual and verbal directions. Students are given a variety of places and ways to find research including the internet, books and people. Students are given the opportunity to explore the different side effects of drugs and have discussions with the class on what they found. Lastly, students will have a safe and positive environment to work in. The class discussion will not tolerate any negative or judgmental comments. Students will be expected to respect one another and I will also create a mutual respect between me and the students.
 * // • Standard 4 - Plans instruction based upon knowledge of subject matter, students, curriculum goals, and learning and development theory. //**
 * Rationale ** : This Maine Standard for Initial Teacher Certification will be met by allowing students to use what they already know and go one step further and learn even more. Most students have some knowledge on why drugs and alcohol can be dangerous and this lesson allows students to really look at the side effects of drugs and the consequences for abusing drugs. Students will even be hearing a personal experience which relates to their drug.
 * // • Standard 5 - Understands and uses a variety of instructional strategies and appropriate technology to meet students’ needs. //**
 * Rationale ** : This Maine Standard for Initial Teacher Certification will be met by using six different intelligences throughout the assignment. Students are given opportunities to be verbal, move around, reflect on themselves, think about the logic behind using drugs, present their research to the class and write about it in a blog and work with other classmates and community members. Students are also given the opportunity to use Type II technologies by doing research on the computer, creating a blog and commenting on one another’s blogs. Students are also allowed to use Type I technologies by doing their research through books and also completing the drug and alcohol crossword.
 * // • Standard 8 - Understands and uses a variety of formal and informal assessment strategies to evaluate and support the development of the learner. //**
 * Rationale ** : This Maine Standard for Initial Teacher Certification will be met by assessing students in a number of different ways. Students will be assessed on their participation in class and their project will be assessed by a rubric on specific criteria which they must follow when doing research on their drug and completing their interview.
