This inquiry unit on Malala is presented both on a 55- slide Power Point and a Google slide deck with tens of links to a variety of media for students to explore and create information. There are 16 graphic organizers, 2 posters and 3 projects in it which you can differentiate according to the abilities and interests of your students. You will find everything about differentiation in the 6-page UbD lesson plan, which also includes several external links and additional lesson ideas for the teacher, which will help you connect quality instructional content to the essential skills of collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity.
In the first part of the unit, students will watch videos, read and research various types of non-fiction, complete several scaffolded tasks, and participate into class discussions before they write their own version of Malala’s biography to inspire others. They will collect everything they have created in this part in a foldable lapbook. In the second part, they will research and discuss what makes a hero and our rights and responsibilities as digital citizens. They will use the information in written, speaking and visual presentations. The activities have been designed for classrooms where all students have access to technology but can easily be adapted for classrooms where only the teacher has access to technology. They include several opportunities for students to connect beyond the classroom, collaborate, create (and show what they know), share and reflect upon their learning at each stage of the learning process.
