Your InterCom editor is a big fan of National Board Certified French teacher Lisa Shepard’s blog Madame’s Musings (Ms. Shepard is also a past contributor to InterCom: http://caslsintercom.uoregon.edu/content/19761 and http://caslsintercom.uoregon.edu/content/19762). Recently Ms. Shepard began a series on her blog about designing a thematic unit. 

Here is the introductory post, which perfectly outlines the backwards design process for designing a unit: http://madameshepard.com/?p=1345

So far Ms. Shepard has written two additional posts expanding on different modes of proficiency. The first deals with interpretive tasks and is available at http://madameshepard.com/?p=1353. The second deals with interpersonal tasks and is available at http://madameshepard.com/?p=1357.
