15th Blog - Final Reflection

This was my a good class I really enjoyed the class from learning all the different types of projects that I procrasnated on, because I thought I couldn't do it at first. My favorite project that I did in this class was the group video. I enjoyed that video, because we got to act out different parts and just have fun. I actually liked doing all the projects once I started on them, because at first I thought they were gone be hard to do. Mr. Tashbin is the coolest teacher I done had since I been going to South. I wished he teached other classes so I can take him again. I learned a lot of things in this class that I will remember how to when I start teaching and maybe I can teach my own class.

14th Blog - Group Lesson Plan from Alabama Learning Exchange (ALEX)

My group and I chose to do our project on science this time . We will be doing our project on the Skeleton System. This skeleton lesson will  be very interesting, because it will teach the students about different bones that make up the body and how they can identify them when they see the bones. This lesson is for grades 3-5 and I remember I did this lesson when I was in elementary.

This should be a very fun project to do and I can't wait until we sit down more and come up with how we gone do the project. After we teach the lesson each students should be able to identify the bones. And we will have different things for them to do.

Interactve Powerpoint Blog

I think this was the hardest and frustrating project we had to do in this class. It was hard to me I watched different videos trying to see how to create an interactive PowerPoint. I wanted to create a game show like Family Feud, or Jeopardy. But it didn't turn out how I wanted it. So I created a simple game quiz PowerPoint.

The students can click on the different answers and it will either tell you if it's correct or if it is incorrect, and it will let you try again until you get the right answer.After spending hours on this project I finally found one that I can create, and at the end I kind of got a little relief when I finished. Everything was working and in place where it suppose to be. I had problems trying to add my own music in the slideshow, so I just used the music that was already on the PowerPoint.

Blog 12

I think it was very interesting for the guest speaker to come and talk to us about assistive technology. I am new to this topic and it was nice for him to share the story about his daughter having to wear hearing aids. And it is probably easier and fun for him to go speak to different people about assistive technology, because he has experienced it from his daughter. The machine he made for his daughter to learn was very neat. He passed it around and let us look at it.

Assistive Technology Video and Questions

My reaction to this video was wow. I think this was a very neat video about how to help children with disabilities to learn. I never knew about the different techniques they use  until I watched this video I  have never been in contact with an assistive technologies. I am looking forward to the guest speaker so I can learn more. I hope the guest speaker bring the techniques with them. The questions I would ask, is what made them come up with these techniques and do they really learn from them.

Lesson Plan from Alabama Learning Exchange (ALEX)

This website is really neat I never heard about it before. I like how it has different lesson plans to go with your lesson for each grade. It also tell you the activities you can do with your kids. At first when I was searching how to explore the website I got confused until I kept playing with different parts on the website. It also tell you the standards, objectives, materials, and procedures of the lesson instead of searching for it, that is easy to fill in on the standard part on your own lesson plan.

I will most likely use this when in the future, because creating lesson plans are hard. I wish I knew about this when I was at the community college, because we had to create lesson plans every week until May. It was stressful trying to come up with activities, objectives and materials. I am very helpful for having this class, because it just made teaching a little easier. I will use this website as a helpful source when I begin teaching.

Assignment 9

I had two student who made 50/100 and one student who made 100/100. For the next class I will go over nouns and pronouns more with them. Some of my students got confused with what the questions I was asking. So I will give them some practice questions for the lesson and then I will test them again on it. This will let me know if they understand it after I reteach it.
