OH! What a GAME!

Oh ! NO ! The course will soon be coming to end but surely not the learning and the application of what I have learned through this module: Integration Technology across Content Areas.
I have been exposed to several unit and lesson format but using the game plan was new one.  It was very welcoming as I am becoming proficient in the writing of plans.
 GOOOAAAALLLLLLL!

As I embarked on the plans through out the module, it made me think seriously about my kids and what I want them to achieve at the end of a unit. Setting goals ensured that I understood the different standards and objectives outlined in the curriculum. This allowed me to integrate the different standards based on the skills and concepts I want to develop or transfer.

Ready, Set, ACTION
Creating actions for the plans were exciting and gave me opportunities test and incorporate several technology tools. It furthered my knowledge of some tool not limited to:

Let's MONITOR
On the first attempt of writing a lesson using this component it made me reflect on the goals and actions of the plan. I came to understand as I continued writing and developing plans that I must connect each of the strands in this plan. From my readings, I have deepened my knowledge on monitoring my students as they learn. It is not necessarily a simple observation but implementations of strategies to ensure that students are on task to achieve the objectives or develop the specified skills.

The End: The EVALUATION.
