The focus of this full day workshop is on developing rich thematic unit plans at the Checkpoint A level. It is designed so that individual teachers as well as entire world language departments can collaborate to develop an understanding of each section of the Thematic Unit Plan design template through alternating "input sessions" and "onsite tasks," in which teachers will work with their departments. Participants will analyze Checkpoint A proficiency targets and performance indicators, develop engaging themes based on anchor topics, write function driven Can-Do statements for each standard and identify acceptable evidence, identify how language structures and vocabulary support language functions and context and are selected at Checkpoint A and apply concepts learned in today's session to the NYS World Language unit plan template to design a standards-based thematic unit plan.
