Week 10- Teching Integration Project

Teaching Integration Plan

This week I made an outline for my teaching integration plan. To view the outline of my project, you can click here. The integration project goes along with a third grade lesson that I gave on children during World War II. In the lesson I will be using VoiceThreads and Google Maps to help me showcase what life was like for children during World War 2. At the end of the unit the students will be assigned to design a presentation that they can make to shawcase their learning and understanding of World War 2. Student will be able to make PowerPoints, VoiceThreads, brochures, webpages, and video's for their presentation. Once the unit is over, I will organize all of the projects into a Wiki Gallery that my current students can view or that my students in the future can observe as well. The grade level expectations for this lesson are listed below:

• Michigan’s Educational Technology Standards (METS) - “Use a variety of media and formats to create and edit products (e.g., presentations, newsletters, brochures, web pages) to communicate information and ideas to various audiences”.
• Michigan’s Grade Level Content Standards- S.DS.03.03- respond to multiple text types by reflecting, making connections, taking a position, and/or showing understanding.

To create my final project I will create a Google Map and a VoiceThread which can be used as an example to how I could use the technology in my unit. I will also make an example of a project that a student might be able to make using one of the technologies I listed above. To showcase my final project however, I will plan on creating a digital story on my lesson and experiences with working on this activity.
