Final workday!

Today was the final workday for ED 421. I was fantastic to have the time to focus on our final lesson, and develop it thoroughly. I chose to present my final in a power-point format and it turned out great (in my opinion) It was challenging to try to incorporate technology use that would be directed for first, second, and third graders. I focused my final on the concept of recycling. I had students view my power-point as a starter, then watch a few short Youtube videos on recycling. I then had them color and form books related to recycling that you as a teacher would download off a website. I also had students draw their own concepts of recycling, and promotion and use word to type up a slogan so that it can be posted in the hallways. The final portion of the lesson had student's working through an interactive game website that involved the concepts of recycling in which we have discussed.
It was really fun to create this informal lesson, and play around with how I could incorporate technology into a primary classroom.
