Here is my final project for tech class! Project Narrative My lesson is actually the same lesson that I used in my field experience class, and I just incorporated a piece of technology into my lesson. The lesson that I started with was a coloring page of a cornucopia and the directions for the student where to draw what they planned on eating for Thanksgiving, or what they would like to eat for Thanksgiving. Like I stated before I had to add a piece of technology so I decided to use a computer, I chose a computer because most students have excess to a computer due to the fact that most schools had computer labs or computers in the classroom. On the computer the students will be using the internet, and Microsoft Word because there are so many options to do on the computer I thought it would be the best thing for this certain lesson. Since that I already had my lesson plan finished, I just had to add a technology standard which was found on the back of the front over of the textbook that we use. The standard that I applied to this assignment was creativity and innovation, along with technology operations and concepts. Creativity and innovation is when students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. The objective I associated with this standard is “ The students will construct a collage on a blank work document, and will be using clipart, along with other tools offered in Microsoft Word this will allow students to show creativity with these tools.” To produce this objective I looked up information on Bloom’s Taxonomy which was found in are text book on pages 56-57 some words found in my first objective is found in the analysis level which is construct. My second standard is technology operations and concepts and my objective towards this standard “ Students will construct a collage using the correct technology, and effectively, and in a way that the technology can correctly produce.” Some words I used again are construct found on the analysis level, and I also used produce which is found under the synthesis level. Once this part was completed I then decided to actually make an example of what the work should look like when finished. This meant finding a coloring page of a cornucopia, and then when I found one I saved it and then opened it in a blank word document in Microsoft. After this was finished I wrote the name on top and then titled the worksheet “My Cornucopia” I then went to the insert tool bar and selected clipart and searched for foods that I planned to eat at my families Thanksgiving. I didn’t show that the cornucopia would be colored when finished, but the final project that the students will be doing will be colored and physically turned in not electronically. When I finished the example of what the final project looked like I decided that I needed to create a rubric so that I would be able to measure the finish project of the students work. To make a rubric I used this website []. I loved this website it was so helpful and convenient in every way, you are able to choose whatever subject that related to you lesson I chose art and was able to choose what I wanted to measure the students on. As seen on my rubric the important factors in this project understood of technology, time and effort, creativity, attention to theme, and number of items I found these to be the most important things that I was looking for in this project. To finish my final project I made sure that I had all the necessary elements that were needed including the standards, rubrics, and the example of what the finished project should look like. At first I thought that I wasn’t going to like doing this project and that it was going to be hard, but now that I’m finished it actually gave me the idea of what kind of work I will be having to go through when assigning homework to students that I will have.

NETS TECHNOLOGY STANDARDS Demonstrate creativity and innovation // Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. // __Objective__: The students will construct a collage on a blank work document, and will be using clipart, along with other tools offered in Microsoft Word this will allow students to show creativity with these tools. Technology Operations and Concepts //Students demonstrate a sound understanding of technology concepts, systems, and operations.// __Objective:__ Students will construct a collage using the correct technology, and effectively, and in a way that the technology can correctly completed. Lesson Plan Format and Guidelines ** Grade Level: ** 2 **Subject:** What subject am I going to teach? Art ** Concept ** : What concepts within the subject will I be teaching? Then and now concept of foods eaten at the first Thanksgiving and what is eaten now. **// Alignment of standards, objectives and assessment(s)t for student learning //**// : // I will first wait for all the students to be quite and wait for their full attention. I will then begin by asking what holiday is coming up and what they know about it. Who does it involve? Why do we celebrate it? What do you eat during thanksgiving? Why do we eat what we eat? Students who are having a hard time staying on task I will make sure to stand by to ask questions so they stay focused and concentrate on what they are supposed to be doing. Along with waiting for students to be quite when I’m talking so that other students can hear and understand what I am saying. I will close the lesson when they are finished coloring by having them explain to their pod seating members what they are eating so they compare and see if they are eating any of the same items. Then I will give instruction to put in their cubbies to take home. I will look at all the students work when walking around their will be no homework assignment, or extension. Student Directions

 * Teacher background knowledge needed for the lesson: ** - I will need to know how to successfully use Microsoft Word, and the internet tools. - How to use all the tools in Microsoft Word that are going to be used. - How to make a rubric. - Common food ate at Thanksgiving. - ** Student prior knowledge needed for this lesson and student’s possible misconceptions about what is going to be taught: ** I should expect the students to know the basic information about Thanksgiving that it’s a holiday, and that it’s a big meal that most families eat turkey at, along with the first thanksgiving meal was a meal between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. ** Type of lesson (__introduces__ a concept/skill/strategy, continues __development__ of a concept/skill/strategy, __completes__ instruction of a concept/skill/strategy): ** This will be a continued lesson involving thanksgiving food. Students have only previously learned about Pilgrim, Native Americans, the Mayflower, and the most common food ate. It’s a continued concept that I will be adding on to. I am teaching this because the food that is being ate now at thanksgiving is very different from what was ate at the first thanksgiving and the understanding of how things were made and what is ate is a great thing to know, and the then and now concept. ** Teaching Strategies/approaches: **
 * The teaching strategies that I will be using are questions for the students and for the students to answer and expand their knowledge. I will be using visual aids cut out colored pictures of food from the first and now thanksgiving meals. At the end of lesson the students will draw and color individual pictures to show what they learned.
 * Classroom management considerations: **
 * I will need to be sure that the student are not shouting out answers, I will remind them to be respectful to whomever is talking and to wait till I call on them to say their answer. I will have all the students sit down on the carpet while I present the lesson at the short white board, when completed I will pass out their sheet of paper with a cornucopia on to begin to draw.
 * Materials: **
 * Cornucopia coloring page; crayons; pencil.
 * Procedures: (__Detailed__ list of steps) **
 * Engagement
 * Development of lesson
 * 1) I will first review Thanksgiving and what they have already learned about it.
 * 2) I will share when thanksgiving took place.
 * 3) Who ate at the first thanksgiving?
 * 4) Why they shared a meal together.
 * 5) Then put up the cut out of food that they ate on the first thanksgiving.
 * 6) Now I’m going to ask them what they eat and when they say some of the common things I’m going to hang that picture up that I have cut out.
 * 7) Then I will ask the students what is different from each meal what food items are?
 * 8) Then ask about their thanksgiving plans such as who’s going to grandparents’ house, who is flying somewhere, who is having thanksgiving at their house.
 * 9) I will then pass out the cornucopia and give directions that they are to draw and write what they will be eating for thanksgiving.
 * Accommodations to support student learning
 * Closure of the lesson
 * Extension Activity/Homework Assignment (if appropriate)
