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...
Part One: In our 5th grade science curriculum, students learn about the human body and how it works. The four main systems we analyze with our students are the skeletal, digestive, respiratory, and circulatory systems. I would utilize this video as an engagement hook to introduce students to the new unit. I would ask them to write down words they are unsure of and create a KWL Chart after watching this. I would then revisit this podcast at the end to see if the students can fully understand what is happening. Furthermore, I'd like to have them specify which system(s) are being discussed in the podcast and how they know that. This video is appropriate for fifth graders and goes right along with the body systems unit that we teach. I'm excited to use this next year because I believe that it will enhance the unit with further inquiry as I introduce the unit with it and then call for a reflection at the end. Since the video takes on a narrative perspective and "trave...
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. :)
