Universal Design for Learning (UDL): Students who struggle to read and/or ESL students will have extra time
allotted for questions, as well as the option of having questions and answer choices read aloud.
Describe the instructional activities that will occur PRIOR to the SRT activity and how you will introduce
the SRT activity.
Prior to the SRT activity, students will have completed a three week social studies unit on Westward
Expansion. The SRT activity will serve as the review game for students as they prepare for the upcoming test.
Teacher will split students up into teams of three and each team will receive a tablet for game play.

Briefly describe what will happen DURING the SRT activity: Students will be split into teams of three and
each team will be given a tablet for game play. Teacher will explain how game works to students and explain
that she is available for question reading. Students will then login to the game using the link and code
provided. Once each team has logged in and created a team name, the game will begin. Each question has a
ten second limit, and students who choose the correct answer win points for their team.
If you are unable to provide a working sample of your questions, please list them below (8-10):

Student Response and Assessment Tools
How will the data be used? This activity and its data will help students to self-assess their knowledge and
readiness for the upcoming test. This activity’s data will also help the teacher to know what they should go
over with students before the test – an easy formative assessment.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity. From this activity, I am hoping to observe student
knowledge and understanding at a faster rate and deeper understanding. I am also hoping to observe student
engagement using SRTs.
Reflective Practice: I believe that SRTs are an excellent way to get students actively involved in their learning.
After creating this lesson and realizing just how easy it is to incorporate technologies like these, I plan on
using SRTs much more for future lessons.
