Jason Huddleston: ok Laquita Barton: I would like to be the mentor first....if that;s ok Jason Huddleston: fire away Laquita Barton: Be sure to save this when we are through. Jason Huddleston: do we have to do more than one? Laquita Barton: One for you and one for me, I suppose... Jason Huddleston: ok Laquita Barton: Or should they be together? Jason Huddleston: That's what's vague in the lesson, lets each do one just to be sure. Laquita Barton: Ok here goes.... Laquita Barton: Jason, what is the main goal for your lesson? Jason Huddleston: Its a geography lesson, intro to map skills Jason Huddleston: so the goal is for students to read and interpret maps and their components Laquita Barton: What grade level? Jason Huddleston: 5th Laquita Barton: Good Laquita Barton: How do you plan to guide the student to identify latitude and loongitude? Jason Huddleston: Each student will have their own atlas with a 2D globe. I will instruct from the overhead and with a demo globe Laquita Barton: Will you be using an infocus or internet connection along with the lesson? Jason Huddleston: In the initial teach we will be using paper maps and globes, but as the lesson develops I plan to use more visuals. Jason Huddleston: I plan to use the internet in an extension activity Laquita Barton: Sounds fun. Laquita Barton: Will the students be working independently or in groups? Jason Huddleston: Both, in the initial teach time they are independent but during the application portion of the lesson they will be in pairs Laquita Barton: What information do you plan to introduce with the Power Point presentation? Jason Huddleston: I will create a review game to review the vocabulary and concepts of the lesson. There are a variety of tools in PP that can make this interactive Laquita Barton: Will the students each have a computer? or will this be a group effort? Jason Huddleston: I would use the video projector to involve the class as a whole for the main review, but I would also have a variation of the slide show on the 3 student computers in the classroom for students who need additional review. Laquita Barton: In the evaluation, how will you structure this for the students? Is it a formal or informal evaluation? Jason Huddleston: The review game will be an informal evaluation, I will be able to tell if most of the students grasp the concepts. I would use a more formal evaluation on the following day such as a vocabulary quiz or other test. Laquita Barton: Have you considered design concepts, equity and access of assistive technology for the lesson? Jason Huddleston: Design concepts relating to what exactly? Jason Huddleston: As far as equity of access, I try not to assign any computer related assignments for homework if the are for a grade. We go to the lab. Laquita Barton: To accommodate students who need assistive technology such as specially designed software, etc. Jason Huddleston: Ah, no. I guess by using more visuals I might accomodate most special needs students. Laquita Barton: Sounds good. We're through with our first conference. Jason Huddleston: Cool Laquita Barton: Let me save this and we'll get started again. Laquita Barton: Jason....Lets speak informally for a minute. Jason Huddleston: shoot Laquita Barton: I do think you need to add one more professionall goal to yours....on addressing the equity and access of assistive technology. Jason Huddleston: ok, I shall Laquita Barton: I left that off my plan, and I will be adding it because it is on our PD Jason Huddleston: good idea Laquita Barton: I'm ready whenever you are. Jason Huddleston: ok Jason Huddleston: Laquita what is your goal for this lesson? Laquita Barton: First graders will be reviewing the sounds A-E. for English Language Arts Standards. Jason Huddleston: How do you plan to introduce the concept? Laquita Barton: The Infocus projector will be used to illustrate objects that have a beginning sound of A-E. Jason Huddleston: How will the students participate in the lesson? Laquita Barton: Notice on the Learning Objectives, I listed that the students would demonstrate body language that listening akills are being used. Do you think I am on track herea/ Jason Huddleston: Yes, I'm just going through some of the questions I saw used in the sample. Laquita Barton: Also, The students will follow direstions in quietly watching projected screen, asking questions when appropriate concerning the sounds. Jason Huddleston: How will you be evaluating the students progress through the lesson? Laquita Barton: In 2 ways. The students will use Hyper Studio to play a matching game; there is also a hand-out the students will complete that is a jigsaw puzzle using words with the sounds introduced. Jason Huddleston: When you are using the video projector, will the students be responding orally at that time? Laquita Barton: Yes, questions and discussions will be encouraged. Jason Huddleston: Great Jason Huddleston: What specifically will you be looking for to determine if the students are "getting it"? Laquita Barton: Do you have any suggestions? Laquita Barton: Actually, the jigsay puzzle and the matching game will reflect whether they recognize the sounds. Laquita Barton: Each student will have a coputer in the lab. There are 20 students in the class. Laquita Barton: Is there anything else we need to cover? Jason Huddleston: Let me get the order straight, initial teach (video projector showing objects with the a/e sould), jigsaw puzzle, then matching game is that right? Laquita Barton: The video projector showing objects with the sounds; matching game, then the jugsaw puzzle. Jason Huddleston: ok, so my question would be what does the student need to demonstrate before moving from the initial teach to the next activity which is the matching game? Jason Huddleston: sorry if I'm overdoing this... Laquita Barton: Actually, I should be able to tell by the student/teacher interaction as the viauals are being presented and students are asking/answering questions pertaining to the objects. Jason Huddleston: I would agree Jason Huddleston: What will be your formal evaluation method? Laquita Barton: There will only be the jigsaw puzzle in this one lesson. As other sounds are introduced later, a formal evaluation will be given. Jason Huddleston: ok Jason Huddleston: That sounds good Jason Huddleston: Done? Laquita Barton: Thanks. Lets save.
