unit plan

I found this planning process to be alot harder then expected. I've been working on "planning in reverse," by coming up with what I would like my students to accomplish first and then planning for there. I feel as if it is almost more restricting, as I stuggle to make connections that seem clear and concise, as well as coming up with mutiple topics for study. I think it's going to take some trial and error before I become more comfortable with this process.

It totally will. I am still learning how to do this -- it's much easier to plan a series of lessons than to think about a unit as a body of learning, building to a cumulative project where all the lessons have to be important steps and scaffolds. But I appreciate that none of you are backing down from the challenge. Keep going!
