Hey Amber,
ReplyDeleteI really like how concise your lesson plan is. I think that your lesson plan meets all requirements for TPACK. I think that adding an example rubric for each of the assessments you have listed would be a great tool for your students to have access to, so that they may stay on track and feel confident in what exactly they will be graded on. Great Job!
