Week 5 Use in the classroom: I intend to use the Aurasma I created for my students as a resource for them to help with the order of operations. This will support their learning because it provides different choices for them to view about the order of operations. They can watch videos, read more about it, and practice with an enrichment lesson. Learning objective: The students will be able to understand the order of operations and then apply it to problem solve numerical expressions. When I attended MACUL this Spring, I was at a session that used augmented learning. I was a bit overwhelmed at it and put it on my summer-to-do list. When I read through this weeks materials, I was so excited! The ladies that presented on this at MACUL made it look wonderful and I was hoping to be able to figure something out for my students. I plan on using this as an introduction to Aurasma when going over the order of operations. Then as my students get familia...
Week 6 Use in the classroom: I could use this mind map I created with my students as an example to show them how to organize their own notes. This would give them a more organized tool of how to take notes, as compared to just jotting them down in a google doc on notability. The focusing question I used to create this mind map was " What are the 3 branches of government and what is their role? " Learning Objective: Students will name the 3 branches of government and paraphrase each branches role using a mind map to explain their understanding. I will incorporate collaboration by allowing students to work in groups of 3 to complete this mind map. Each person in the group could pick a branch to become an expert on. I would also like to utilize a Jigsaw strategy for collaboration as well where each branch meets up to go over their notes before reporting back to the group for the creation of the mind map. In order to develop a culture of co...
Hello! I'm Jaclyn Trahan, a 23 year old, teaching 5th grade at Kennedy Elementary in Manistee, MI. I specifically teach reading, math, and social studies. I'm currently in my second year teaching and loving it! I grew up in Freeland, MI, went to college at CMU (fire-up Chips), and got a job teaching in Manistee after graduation. I have a major in Math and an ELA minor. I now live a mile from Lake Michigan and enjoy riding my bike, going to the beach, and running. In addition to teaching, I am the JV Girls Soccer Coach at Manistee, an Assistant Director at a summer camp, and am a Junior High youth group leader. I'm looking forward to learning new technology I can incorporate into my classroom and share with my colleagues. One concern I have for this course will be getting my work completed on time when I go to Africa. I am going with fellow teachers on a Missions Trip to Liberia, Africa to train local teachers for ten days and work with the students. I will not have int...
Too funny! I think kids in my high school classroom would get a kick out of this. :)
