EDLD5364 Teaching with Technology Lesson Plan Reflection

This week's lesson was very intensive!  There not only was much material to be read and viewed but created as well.  Through this process I have learned new things that I will be able to share with the teachers in our district.  I have found the CAST websites to be incredible and resources that every current teacher can and should utilize. 

I know that it has been a tiring week and here at 8pm on Sunday night I am still finding things to do! 
Here are my lesson plans for our group UDL
Universal Design for Learning Lesson Plan
Teacher(s): Elizabeth Hamilton Date: 1st 6 Weeks - Week 4 Subject: 9th Grade English 1
Materials Needed: Make sure you have all of your materials collected and organized so
your lesson will flow smoothly. If you are presenting this lesson collaboratively, make sure you know who is responsible for what.
1. Computers for all students (30) with Internet Access, computers need to be loaded with Screenreader software to meet needs of various students
2. Projector
3. SMARTboard and Notebook software
4. Access to Websites: www.google.com; http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/pinball/, http://bookbuilder.cast.org/
5. Print out of all essays for every student
6. Build ebook using: http://bookbuilder.cast.org/
7. eBook: http://bookbuilder.cast.org/view.php?op=model&book=16770&page=1


Lesson Objective(s): State your objectives behaviorally. For example: Given (state the condition under which the
students will perform the objective), the students will (state an observable student behavior) with (state the criteria here –
a statement that specifies how well the student must perform the behavior) accuracy. An example of a behavioral objective
is: Given an unlabeled diagram of the solar system, the students will label the nine planets and the sun with 80% accuracy.
Students will publish final essays to a collaborative Google Site. Students will be divided into 10 groups of 3 for reflection. The students will use the HOTS method of reflection critique giving constructive feedback to fellow students. Students will be given class time for final revision of essay following critiques. Students will create an eBook using Cast Bookbuilder.


Standard/Benchmark/Indicator: Are you aligning your lesson with district or state standards?
ISTE NETS-1-a&b, 2-b, 3-c, 5-a&b, 6-a&b TEKS: 13D, 13E


DAY ONE

Anticipatory Set: How are you going to motivate your students…assess or review prior knowledge…
introduce your topic…organize your lesson for students?
Students brainstorm using online graphic organizer Pinball uses for google docs.


Multiple Means of Representation: How are you going to present your content so that it meets the
needs of all students…is the information represented in different ways? For example, utilizing guided notes and graphic
organizers in addition to a lecture format or having several books that represent different reading levels.
Content will be represented using graphic organizers and after developing they will be printed for students to retain.


Multiple Means of Engagement: How are you going to provide multiple pathways for students to actually
learn the material presented? Practice, or active mental/physical engagement, is required by students to make real learning
happen. For example, some students may benefit from small group learning opportunities; others may require more focused
practice with precise feedback, while others might benefit from working independently. Some students will need to write,
others will need to talk through ideas before they understand, while others may need to physically represent what they are learning.
Students can access the group essays either on the group google site or through the printout. They will use google docs to create their critique and share with team members.


Multiple Means of Expression: How will students demonstrate what they have learned? Again, the creation
of many paths is key. Some students are good test-takers, while others are not. Tiered assignments, oral exams, building a model,
making a video, using portfolio assessment are examples of alternatives to traditional paper/pencil tests.
Students will publish their final essays to their collaborative Google Site. Students will be randomly grouped using the Random Generator in the SMART Notebook for critiquing using the HOTS method of reflection critique giving constructive feedback. Final writing will be turned into an eBook using CAST’s UDL Book Builder site.



DAY TWO
Anticipatory Set: How are you going to motivate your students…assess or review prior knowledge…
introduce your topic…organize your lesson for students?
Question to students "Have you ever read a book onine?"

Students will be placed in groups for collaborative critique, they will use computers and websites to upload their essays, and use a website to create an eBook.
