Lesson Plan 10/24/13

Lesson Plan
                I thought since it is my first day without anyone from the first Cohort I thought it would be important to try to learn names. I found a name game online that will help me to get to know each student. Since my experience in the first observational study I understand how hard it is to get the kids to focus at 4 o’clock in the afternoon so I wanted to try something simple.
                I will get there early and put out computers and get them to the proper page, so I can start when they get there and we won’t have to run into the trouble of them getting the URL correct. My fear is that the link for the name game (http://www.fupa.com/play/Education-free-games/the-name-game.html) will not be allowed on the elementary computer network. Unfortunately if this occurs there is a website with Dr. Seuss games on it that are educationally friendly.  The project coordinator seems pretty adamant about their energy so my observational period the students arrived late unfortunately which made me think that I need to plan something attainable with the amount of time I am given.
http://pbskids.org/catinthehat/games/ here is the additional back up link to the Dr. Seuss games.
Hopefully I will get more time and ask the kids how they want to know how to use the computer and help them in that way.
