Now that you have written the outline of your unit, it is time to find resources that you can use to support your unit
and flesh out your lessons.
FINDING RESOURCESUNDERSTANDING BY DESIGN: STAGE 3
What caption would you write for this picture?
Why should we find resources?We can find resources for:
Our students to use in completing the activities and culminating tasks that we already developed
Ourselves to use when we are writing units
Include your resource list on the last page of the UBD template.This lets other teachers better utilize your units.
Textbooks – for writing unitsLook at the word problemsSpecial “investigations”Teacher edition
Example: 7th Grade Math textbook, Percents chapter:Many health authorities recommend that a
healthy diet contains no more than 30% of its Calories from fat. If Jennie consumes 1,500 Calories each day, what is the maximum number of Calories she should consume from fat? (Glencoe Mathematics Course 3, page 222)
