Activities play an important role in the Embarc lesson planner. This article will outline the difference between the two- and explain how they work together within the Embarc platform.
Activities
Activities are student learning experiences that capture instructional content and best practices in the curriculum. These do not change year to year, unless necessary. They are captured within the curriculum feature at the topic level of Embarc, as they are aligned with learning targets. If your district plans to utilize the lesson planning feature, activities are the main component of a lesson plan (and make it simple!).
The purpose is to incorporate the details of what a teacher does, students do, learning targets, standards, and links to instructional content
Teachers can select these in their lesson plans as the “meat” of instruction
