In this assignment, you will visit the Inquiry Learning Forum (ILF) website to observe a lesson of your choice. (You may have to request membership if you are not currently a member). Think about how the lesson was presented, and rate it on one of the SIOP components (building background, comprehensible input, etc.) using the SIOP scale. Then, revise the teacher's original lesson plan available on ILF in response to the rating you gave to the lesson. This may mean that you include a new component or you expand on what the teacher has already done with regard to that component. In your posting of this assignment, you will need to include the following:
A description of the teacher's original lesson plan on ILF.
The SIOP component you intend to focus on, your SIOP rating and a few paragraphs explaining why you rated the teacher's lesson plan the way you did (be sure to consider all elements of that component)
Your revised lesson plan (please use a highlighting feature or "track changes" feature to reveal the changes you have made)
An explanation of why you made the changes you did and why you think they will make the lesson more successful as a whole.
