UbD/DI Chapter 9: Bringing it all Together: Curriculum and Instruction Through the Lens of UbD and DI

This chapter takes everything that the book has been discussing, sums it up and then gives a real life example of the model working. It was interesting to see another teacher working through the backwards design model and then making adjustments to the plans so that the students would get more out of it. The book was very helpful in offering ways in which to differentiate both for readiness levels and for different learning styles. I liked that it also listed the observable indicators of a UbD/DI classroom. I think this chapter is a very helpful resource when getting ready to plan my own units of study. It is an easy way to remind myself of how it all comes together in the end.
