Lesson Plan Content
Description:
Prior to late 2020, most students had no real concept of a pandemic that could strike humans of all races, economic conditions, and geographic locations. COVID 19 brought about awareness of the impact of social, economical, geographic factors of the spread of an infectious disease. In this lesson, students will identify the countries most affected by COVID 19. They will explore and analyze the data using the mathematical skill of scientific notation. This lesson contains adaptations for diverse learners (ELLs).
