 * - Sample Questions for Discussion:** To allow all students to finish the tests, there will not be discussion until all are completed.

There are many different modifications that can be made on the post test. For students that do a better job of verbally expressing themselves than writing, should be allowed to come to the teacher’s desk and give an oral quiz. Students that are visually impaired will get a test that has larger font or possible take it on a computer. On the computer they could control how large or small the font is, and that could make it easier for them. The last modification that could be made on the post test would be to allow students that had ADD to take it in separate room that is free of distractions and would be easier for them to succeed on the test.
 * -Activity:** The students will take the post test and we are assuming that it will take most of the 30 minutes. After they have finished the test they will fill out their own adventure worksheet attached below. In this adventure they decide where they are sailing to, what they need to bring, the path they are taking and more.
 * Summary and Assessment:** The post test will be the assessment of the students. We will summarize the class with a discussion about what new information they have learned that they did not know before.
 * Subjects for Integration:** Writing, Art
