A logical progression of lesson plan objectives focused on the Unit Goal facilitates organized, meaningful learning

2-4 day lesson plans “chunk” concepts together, which helps students remember new knowledge and connect it to prior knowledge

Regular end-of-lesson plan assessments support all students, but in particular struggling students

Based on the ideas of Jay McTighe and Grant Wiggins (Understanding by Design) coupled with those of Robert J. Marzano (A Different Kind of Classroom).
