Smartboard+Lesson+Plan

  ** Goal: **Students will be able to use the interactive white boards to learn about odd and even numbers. Students will be able to correctly identify numbers as odd or even. ** Resources:  ** SmartBoard10 Software (This was used by me to create the smartboard lesson.)  Smart Board (This is used to deliver the lesson.) ** Procedure: ** 1. Open up the smartboard 10 software file.  2. Open slide 1 and 2 and explain to the students what an odd and even number is.  3. Open slide 3 and follow the slide to explain to the students how to determine if a number is odd or even. 4. To make sure the students understand the process, have the students (as a collective group) answer the examples that I’ve provided on slide 3. After they have answered I will reveal if they were correct by moving the yellow rectangle. 5. Open slide 4 and give the students an opportunity to use the smartboard. The students will come up one by one (on a volunteer basis) and move the number of their choice under either the even or odd number column. ** Assessment: **Students will be assessed on their willingness to volunteer to use the smartboard and move a number correctly into one of the 2 columns. Also students will be assessed on their overall engagement in the lesson. A follow-up test will be given to assess their knowledge of the overall lesson where the students will be given 20 numbers and they will have to identify the number as even or odd. ** 21st Century Goal: **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> My lesson meets the goal of ITC Literacy because technology is being used as a tool to organize and communicate information. The whole lesson is created on the smartboard and is presented through the smartboard. Students were able to use the smartboard to organize odd and even numbers by dragging the numbers into the correct columns. They were able to see and use the smartboard to understand the concept of odd and even numbers. ** <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">NETS*T Standard: **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">My lesson meets the standard of design and develop digital-age learning experiences and assessments. A guideline for this standard is that a contemporary tool be used to develop content learning in context, which is exactly what the smartboard did. The smartboard is a tool used to address the different learning styles, working strategies, and abilities of students in the classroom, also another guideline of the standard. Those who are visual learners, and learn by doing would benefit from the use of this technology. By using a smartboard, a lesson can be created that is relevant to subject content and it can also be used to address the diverse learning styles of the student in the class. For example, by getting out of their seat and coming to the smartboard to drag a number into the correct column is able to be done because of the technology. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">
