What are the major differences between 2 and 4 stroke engines? What are the strokes of the two? Lecture, Reading Assignment Lecture, Thoughtful Ed. Agricultural Mechanics and Technology UNIT A: Mechanical Systems and Technology Problem Area 6: Agricultural Power Systems Identifying Engine Systems and Components PL-H-4.4.2, SC- H-1.2.6, SC-H , SC-H-1.4.1, SC-H-1.4.3, SC- H-1.5.1, SC-H , SC-H What role does each individual part play? How can we relate this to what we have already learned Lecture, Thoughtful Ed., Development and Creativity, Group Project, PowerPoint Presentations Soil Conservation District Essay scoring rubric utilized. Anticipation guide given with the packet as a reading guide. Notemaking/Compa re and Contrast Hands-On Project Students disassembled previous small engine boards and are creating brand new ones. Students are responsible for placing all parts on the boards in the classroom and

5 1/3-4/11 LC: A6-4 4/12-5/3 LC: A3-4 5/4-5/27 Agricultural Mechanics and Technology UNIT A: Mechanical Systems and Technology Problem Area 6: Agricultural Power Systems Applying Preventative Maintenance Practices All 6 areas (In theory, this is 6 different units since it s so much material) MA-H-2.2.3, MA- H-3.2.3, PL-H , SC-H-1.3.2, SC-H-1.4.1, SC- H-1.5.1, SC-H , SC-H H-OF001, H-OF002, Why must we always conduct upkeep practices to our equipment on a regular basis? Lecture, Thoughtful Ed., Development and Creativity Agricultural Mechanics and Technology UNIT A: Mechanical Systems and Technology Problem Area 3: Construction Systems Caring for and Reconditioning Construction Tools (and other) Open Shop Personal Projects and Clean PL-H-3.1.1, PL- H-4.3.1, PL-H , PL-H-4.4.2, SC-H-1.2.4, SC- H-1.2.5, SC-H P-OL003, P-OM003 Why must we always perform upkeep of our equipment? Lecture, Demonstration, Notemaking (Graphic Organizers) We spent the last couple of weeks opening the shop up developing a list and code for all of the parts. Hands-on, Quizzes, Notemaking and individual presentations - Students chose a piece of agricultural equipment themselves and developed a preventative maintenance log/plan for a 10- year span. Performance Assessment Primary Students Repaired an old piece of agricultural equipment.

6 Up/Final Review for students to complete personal projects, as well as completing various projects assigned by other teachers, clean-up, content review and final exams. I also gave students plenty of time to review the parts boards before they took their final exams.
