A. Clear Target: I can explain the unification of the Greek city-states by Macedonia, and analyze the impact of Alexander the Great and the diffusion of Hellenistic culture.
B. Set: TTW tell some jokes, or ask some riddles to the students in order to get their brains ready for learning. The Bell Ringer covered the lesson and is the interest cue.
C. Bell Ringer: TSW complete a GIMKIT. Here is the link.
1. TTW review the clear target with the students ensuring understanding of the new terms (if any) and then lead a discussion on the bell ringer to ensure that the students understand the information in the lesson from the class prior.
a. Review: After the class has answered the question to the best of their ability, and the discussion is complete, TTW assess if there needs to be a review of the previous day’s lesson. If a review is needed, TTW have the students get out their notes and will review the material with them.
b. If no review is needed TTW have the students get ready for today’s lesson.
D. Presentation of New Material: TSW read their notes handout, and then answer the questions on the worksheet that covers the notes. Answers are to come from the notes handout, and not any other source. TS may open the video and complete their worksheet if they desire. However, they may have to use the notes handout as well for some of the answers. Here is the link to the video(s): Alexander the Great
After the notes and worksheets have been reviewed and completed, there is an exit ticket in Section “G. Closure.” This exit ticket must be completed before class is over. TSW complete the DBQ, in section “F. 3.” as well. Again, the exit ticket must be completed before class is over.
