Target Audience of the Lesson:
A 6th grade social studies course. There are 24 students in the class and this class is required for every 6th grade class. There are students with honors and students that struggle with grades. 3 of the students that struggle have a learning disability in reading and 2 of the 3 have an attention disorder (ADD).

Big Idea of the Lesson:
The students are learning about historical sites in Indiana. They are focusing on Spring Mill State Park for the next few weeks. I want to take them on a field trip to the park so they can take pictures with class digital cameras.


Overall Goal for the Lesson:
I want students to begin to have a better understanding of history around them and become more familiar in particular with Indiana’s history.
