Linda's+lesson+Plan+1

My name is Linda Berry, I am teaching 6th & 7th Grade Technology Applications. My question to the class is can you recreate a story. Students will be placed in groups to compliment the diverse learners. Students will use the internet to find the fiction three little pigs story, then the students will create their own version of the three little pigs using a story board and a wiki to record the story. The instructional objective: Students will create a storyboard using shapes in Microsoft Word. Students will compose their own version of the three little pigs using the correct punctuation and sentence structure (We have completed lessons on punctuation and sentence structure prior to this lesson). ISTE NETS –S: Creativity, communication and collaboration, critical thinking, decision making, technology operations and concepts. During class, students will using the internet, find the story the Three Little Pigs, in groups discuss different creative versions of the story (20-25 minutes). Students will in group’s use the Microsoft word shapes to create a storyboard for the recreated story (45-50 minutes). During the next class one group will make a draft wiki – students from each group will enter their opening version of the story, body of the story, and ending/conclusion of the story (45-50 minutes). I will monitor students input as they type their information in Microsoft word first, and the copy and past in the wiki. During the third class, all three groups will review the wiki by coming together showing the wiki on a smart board with one student reading each opening of the story from the different groups, students will complete a worksheet with the opening they want, body, and closing they want for the story as each part is being read. These openings, body, and closing voted on will make up the final story for the group wiki. One group will make the final wiki for completion of the artifact to present to the instructor (50-55 minutes). The instructor will grade the wiki for creativity, organization, sentence structure, punctuation, and content.
