Progression ofactivities is uneven, with mosttime allocations reasonable.The lesson or unit has aclearly defined structurearound which activities areorganized. Progression ofactivities is even, withreasonable time allocations.Learning activities are highlysuitable to diverse learnersand support the instructionaloutcomes. They are alldesigned to engage studentsin high-level cognitive activityand are differentiated, asappropriate, for individuallearners.All of the materials andresources are suitable tostudents, support theinstructional outcomes, andare designed to engagestudents in meaningfullearning. There is evidence ofappropriate use of technologyand of student participation inselecting or adaptingmaterials.Instructional groups arevaried as appropriate to thestudents and the differentinstructional outcomes. Thereis evidence of student choicein selecting the differentpatterns of instructionalgroups.The lesson’s or unit’sstructure is clear and allowsfor different pathwaysaccording to diverse studentneeds. The progression ofactivities is highly coherent.10
