 * Notes ** : // Being a related arts class, self-contained students are mainstreamed into my classes. Each student has an individual IEP. Their disabilities range from Autism, Mild Mentally Disabled, to Down Syndrome. Special accommodations include individual oral instructions, one on one assistance, student and teacher help, and extra time to work on projects. Self-contained students also have time allotted to work on their projects outside of my class with their self-contained teacher. A special education teacher assistant also accompanies the students to class. //
 * ** MONITOR ** ||

Ongoing assessment(s): All students will be monitored throughout the duration of this unit. Formative assessments such as quizzes will be given on students’ vocabulary. All projects will be graded with a detailed rubric given to students at the beginning of the unit. Accommodations and extensions: Students meet for class everyday for 45 minutes. However, being related arts, all scheduled guidance meetings, assemblies, A+ Student Academic Assistance Lab, and make-up work for academic teachers is also done during this class time. Therefore, the unit may be extended due to a large number of absences or not having class at all. Backup plan: This project can also be created as a written report or a poster board project.
