The unit plan focused on graphing and implemented various technologies throughout the lessons, including podcasts to introduce topics, YouTube videos to explain graph types, and social media accounts for students to discuss assignments. Students conducted surveys, used digital tools to create graphs from images, and were challenged to build robots related to graphs. By incorporating these technologies, the lessons allowed students more ways to engage with and understand the topics.

1. Abstract
Throughout the journey of creating my unit plan, I could see the positive
evolution of my unit growing once I implemented technology. My unit plan theme
was graphing. Therefore, I focused on implementing podcasts at the beginning of
some of the lessons to keep students up to date on the lessons. Then videos from
YouTube were utilized to help introduce the types of graphs to the students. Then,
class Facebook, Twitter, and Wikispace accounts were created to help keep
everyone up to date on the assignments and give students an opportunity to post
any ideas or questions they had. Storytelling was integrated into the lesson by
allowing students to document their findings of a survey they had created. Students
were able to use the snipping tool and digital imaging to create a circle graph from
an image of something they enjoyed or liked. At the end, students were challenged
to create a robot that either reflected the characteristics of a graph or told a story
that was focused on graphs. By implementing the technology, students will be able
to express themselves more through the lesson which will make it more meaningful.
