academic content standard, alternate standard, or early childhood standard, related to the learning goal and/or the planned supports. (Note: Please include the number and text of the standard that is being addressed. If only a portion of a standard is being addressed, then only list the part or parts that are relevant.) Indicate if there is no relevant standard for the learning goal and/or planned supports.
lesson objective for each lesson.
planned supports to be used throughout the learning segment and described in the lesson plans, specific to achieving the learning goal. (Please provide a brief list of the
key supports that you intend to use; you will have an opportunity to explain how they support the focus learner in prompts 3a–d and 4b.)
Learning Goal: [Students, with proper guidance and resources, will identify the solar system's eight planets, as well as the sun and moon, and determine the system's correct planetary order with 80% accuracy 4 of 5 trials.]
