Brief Description
|
|
Complete a review activity
|
Students engage in some
form of question and answer to review content; paper-based to game-show
format using multimedia presentation tools
|
|
Group Discussion
|
In small to large
groups, students engage in dialogue with their peers;
synchronous/asynchronous
|
|
View images
|
Students examine both
still and moving (video, animations) images; print-based or digital format
|
|
Simulation
|
Students engage in
paper-based or digital experiences which mirror the complexity of the real
world
|
|
Create a map
|
Students label existing
maps or produce their own; print based materials or digitally
|
|
Take
a test
|
Students demonstrate
their knowledge through paper based, traditional format to computer-generated
and scored assessments
|
Assessment
Plan:
Formative Assessment-
Students will
be assessed while playing “spin the world”
-Students
will also be assessed when they color and outline their world map
Summative Assessment-
-Students
will be assessed on an edmodo quiz and may reference google maps
Materials and technologies:
Used by the
Teacher: smartboard, projector, macbook, globe, google maps,
brainpopjr, edmodo.com
Used by the Students: macbooks, internet, google maps installed on all macbooks, paper copy of world map, crayons
Instructional Procedures:
-Students
will watch “continents rap” at Map Rap
-Students
will review word wall and new words on brainpopjr
with the help of teacher
-Students
will watch map skills on brainpopjr.com and class discussion of the main idea
-Teacher
will introduce google maps program
-Students
will review the ordinal directions on google maps
-Students
will help identify Africa/ Egypt on google maps
-Students
will play “spin the world”
*one student will spin the google
map globe and another student will spin classroom globe. The fastest student
then must stop the globes at Africa or Egypt. Each person who is the fastest
and accurate gets a point for their table. Every table will get 2 turns (5
tables).
-Students
then will get world maps and color Egypt and surrounding countries. Students
will also outline Africa.
-Students
will get macbook computers and log on to Edmodo.com. They will complete map
quiz and may use google maps for reference.
TIM Cell Present-
Adaptation
Active
“The
teacher facilitates students in exploring and independently using technology
tools” and “Students are actively engaged in using technology as a tool rather
than passively receiving information from the technology.” Students will be
encouraged to use the google maps to reference information that we already
discussed. They can explore other parts of google maps too if this helps them
on edmodo.
TIM Cell
Future
Adaptation
Collaboration
“The
teacher facilitates students in exploring and independently using technology
tools” and “Students use technology tools to collaborate with others rather
then working individually at all times.” In the next step, groups would get 2-3
different countries that they would have to find on their own through online
collaboration on edmodo reading groups. Students would use google maps or safe
students search engine to locate the countries and see what was north, east,
south, and west of them. They would put their answers together on edmodo
posting and show the class in group presentations.
