Forthis benchmark, you will complete and revise the “Science Unit Plan”template, integrated with health and activity, (fitness, body, physical,emotional, motor skills) and aligned to state content standards, basedon feedback from your instructor. The “Science Unit Plan” templateincludes developed lesson titles, summary and rationale, learningobjectives, standards, instructional strategies, differentiation,materials, resources, and technology for five lessons that includes aminimum of two of the following content disciplines:

• Scientific Method
• Health (Human Movement, Activity, Fitness, Emotional Health, Motor Skills)
• Physical Science
• Life Science
• Earth Science
• Space Science
• Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science

Part 1: Assessments

Thefinal part of the “Science Unit Plan” is to include formativeevidence-based assessment strategies to gauge student learning for eachindividual lesson.

Using the “Class Profile,” develop an end-of-unit summative assessment and

• List how you will formatively assess the learning for each lesson.
• Description of the summative assessment for the entire unit.

Thecompletion of your “Science Unit Plan” should fulfill all requirementsof the unit plan and considerations for the successful instruction ofeach lesson.

Ensure that your unit plan includes:

• Age-appropriatelessons that incorporate the fundamental concepts of multiple areas ofscience, based on your state standards, integrated to build studentunderstanding for personal and social application in science.
• Integratemajor concepts in health education by creating opportunities fordevelopment and practice of skills that contribute to positiveunderstanding of physical activity and health education.
• Instructionalstrategies that promote understanding and skills of physical activitythat foster active, healthy lifestyles and enhanced quality of life forstudents.

Part 2: Reflection

In250-500 words, summarize and reflect on the process of creating acohesive, weeklong unit plan that successfully incorporates multipleareas of science integrated with health. What strategies can you use tocreate opportunities to promote health education that positivelycontributes to a good quality of life for students? Why is thisimportant? How can this be incorporated into your future classroom?

Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.
