ASSURE- Stated Objective
Analyzing the Learners:
A special education class of 17 1st graders (10 boys, 7 girls) 70% white, 20%
African American, and 10% Hispanic. 7 of the students have mild to severe
ADHD.
State Objective:
The students will be able to chronologically identify each of the 12 months of the
year. The students will be engaged in a variety of different activities in order to
assist the different learning styles of each student. Some of the activities will
include: singing songs, watching instructional videos, viewing an instructional
lecture on the overhead, and making calendars. 100% of the students will learn
the months of the year within one week.
Select Media, Methods, and Materials:
-
Audio (Music)
-
Computer
-
Overhead
-
Making Calendars

2. Utilize Media and Materials:
In order to assure that the music and videos presented to the children is
appropriate for the children, the teacher will listen through the song and watch the
videos carefully. This also allows the teacher to decide if the song and videos will
be effective for special needs children that are in the 1st grade.
Require Learner Participation:
The teacher will break the children up into small groups of 3. Each group will be
as diverse as possible. This will allow the children to step out of their comfort
zones and allow them to become comfortable with people who aren’t like them.
The teacher will individually go from songs, to videos, then show them calendars,
and finally give examples from the overhead projector. The teacher will observe
the children and help them as needed.
Evaluate and Revise:
The teacher will observe which media worked and what didn’t work. The teacher
will also observe which students grasped the lesson and which students struggled.
If there are children who struggled with it, then they will be put close to students
on the next school day in order for them to assist their classmates. Finally, the
teacher will ask themself if the methods and media they are using is working with
the children regarding their special needs?
