The lesson summary serves as a post-organizer for the lesson. The summary typically includes a review of the lesson objective, a brief description of lesson and practice activities, and a reminder of how the lesson relates to previous or future learning.
The summary is an important tool to tie all the activities together for the students. You can use a short restatement of the lesson objective and activities or an exercise that actively involves students in recall of the information. The important thing is that students have a clear understanding of how the parts of the lesson relate to reaching the learning goal.
Accommodations are changes to the way a student accesses instruction and demonstrates performance. When accommodations are incorporated into the lesson summary, they meet the needs of individual students and often the entire class benefits. Some accommodations may need to be provided on an individual basis.
