1. What is the content you'll be using in your lesson?
My lesson will focus on teaching language arts in the third grade. I will use Standard 7: Comprehension-Students understand, interpret, and analyze narrative and informational grade level text, Objective 2: Apply strategies to comprehend text, Indicator C: Form mental pictures to aid understanding of text. With this focus, we will look at a text as a class and then gain further knowledge of the subject so that students might gain further understanding of the material and text.
2. What is the pedagogy you'll be using and why is it a good fit with the content?
Students will be able to watch see a map of the United States as well as zoom in on the area we are covering, watch a video, learn about climate, and discuss in small groups why some things were created. This will appeal to individuals who prefer learning by themselves, as well as those who prefer to analyze data and those who learn best through group work. We will be learning about Harriet Tubman, and therefore I feel that working individually and in groups best displays the type of work that she did.
3. What is the technology you'll be using and why is it a good fit with the content and pedagogy?
Students will be using computers to view images, watch videos, and analyze data, as well as view maps of the United States and specific areas within the states. This is a good fit with the content because students will be able to view images in order to help them form their own mental images of the text we are using. The technology is a good fit with the pedagogy because it allows students to work both individually and in groups.
