Communication Instructional Plan 

Communication

• Time: One week total to be reviewed or adapted as needed 
• Materials: computer and internet access
• Assessment: Students will use appropriate language when addressing teachers or other students. This could be evaluated with a checklist, behavior contract, peer observation or self monitoring process.
• Hints or tips: This could be part of a behavior modification program. At any time a student or teacher notices a lapse in language behavior, the discussion could be centered around other ways to say things either verbally or with body language. This section could be linked to social studies when discussing cultures, linked to performing arts when doing character studies, language arts when writing descriptive passages or dialogues. Adaptations could be made for students with different disabilities, such as hearing impaired - using ASL, visual impairments, learning disabilities or behavior disorders.
