ABCD A (Audience) – 6th graders B (Behavior) – Throughout the week students will be doing various activities to grasp an understanding of the ancient Egyptian culture. The assignments the students will be doing this week include, reading ch. 12 which is about Egyptians, creating a PowerPoint as a group, doing interactive assignments online, and writing their names in hieroglyphs. I expect each student to complete each assignment, and gain a little bit more knowledge than they had previously. C (Condition) – The students will be completing each assignment under normal classroom conditions. They will also be spending some time in the computer lab to complete a few assignments. The students will have their books and a few different online resources that will assist them with learning this new information. D (Degree) – I expect the students to complete each activity with 95% mastery. I believe that with the assignments provided, no student will have anything under 95% mastery.
 * State Your Objectives**

The media necessary for this project will be computers for the students to complete their PowerPoint. Also, this weeks Lesson Plan will require the teachers labtop and the screen in the front of the classroom. This is for the Interactive Assignments that the textbooks website offers.
 * Utilize Your Media**

During these five days I want the students to understand the ancient Egyptian culture. Each day students are introduced to a little more information about this culture. After the week is over I hope the students will understand: The georgaphy of the Nile River Valley, Hieroglyphs and the ways they were used as a language, The Great Pyramids and how they were created and for what purpose, then finally the influential people from the Egyptian culture.
 * Require Learner Participation**

After this week is complete, I will go over the things from this weeks lesson that worked and things that didn't work so well. For the activities that didn't go over to well, I will find ways to alter them so that the next year the assignment will work better with this lesson.
