1. Scenario #2
(A)nalyze Learners-
Considering the holidays are right around the corner I will be teaching a few
holiday traditions to 4th graders. I have twenty students including eleven girls, and
nine boys. Amongst the students there are two Muslims, three Jewish, two African
Americans.
(S)tate Objectives-
By the end of the week my students will accurately be able to identify
different attributes that are traditional for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I will teach
them a couple different traditions from different religions to provide perspective on
different traditions. My students will identify different colors associated with each
holiday along with the different foods. I will explain different methods of gift
exchanges that occur amongst people during this time of year. I also intend to make
the connection between the weather and the holiday season and how they are
different in other parts of the country. My students will have 80%-100%
understanding of the lesson by the end of the week.
(S)elected Methods, Media, and Materials-
I intend to compose a secret Santa project for the students to do in class for
the holiday of Christmas. I will utilize youtube for movie clips along with class
discussion periodically about the clips. For the Thanksgiving holiday I will require a
“show and tell” session of objects that are often associated with the holiday in which
we will also include a poster collaboration project of both holidays and the
traditions. I will also use a Voki and the students will use a webquest assignment for
homework.
(U)tilize Media and Materials-
I will prepare the classroom with the materials for the students to use for
their crafts during the secret Santa project. Before explaining the project I will show
them the way I made mine. For the movie clips from youtube I will review and
prepare particular questions to ask during the clips. I will research and produce
Thanksgiving associated pictures to provide examples of what is expected for the
“show and tell” session. I am going to provide my own poster to show the fun I had
2. with it and to show different and similar aspects of mine versus their poster. I will
also have a Voki that will sing a Christmas song. The students will then participate in
the webquest assignment through the weekend.
(R)equire Learner Participation-
Monday and Tuesday: Students will participate in the secret Santa project by
drawing a name out of a box and creating a craft for that person, however, the craft
will be made from that person’s perspective of the Christmas holiday. It will require
them to make the craft to best fit their method of celebrating Christmas.
Wednesday: The students will watch a Christmas movie clips from youtube and will
participate in class discussion throughout the movie clips to analyze different
traditions portrayed in the clips. To close, the students will listen to a Voki singing a
Christmas song. Thursday: Students will gather things from around their home to
best describe their celebrating habits of their version of thanksgiving. They will then
present their items to the class with a brief description. Friday: Student will
collectively make a poster collaboration of everything they have learned. They will
have a webquest for homework over the weekend.
(E)valuation and Revise-
Everyday I will be able to evaluate my methods, media, and material by
focusing on the responses of each student. If and when I recognize an issue I will
revise and improvise to insure a better understanding of the material to where all
students are on the same pace.
