Aspect
2: The Social System
|
| Students will begin the
lesson on the Earth's materials brainstorming what they already
know about the resources. They will view a movie from United
Streaming to add to that knowledge. Students will be able to
use Kidspiration in a classification activity and the Internet
to research the life cycle of a resource. As students realize
the importance of conserving the Earth's materials, they will
create a product from recycled materials. Using productivity
software they will create and advertisement to promote that
new product. |
see student goals and tools above |
|
Aspect
3: The Role of the Instructor
|
| The instructor will guide
the students through a discussion of the earth's materials.
Using a video and listening guide the teacher will facilitate
the connection of new knowledge to prior knowledge. To check
for understanding, students will be required to classify resources
using Kidspiration. The instructor will facilitate small groups
as they do Internet research to determine the life cycle of
a resource and create and advertise a new product. Classroom
management skills and provisions for diverse learners will be
addressed. |
