Week 11: Developing Ideas for Final Project

My lesson plan is designed for a third grade science class.  I will divide the students in groups of two and each group will get a different habitat: forests, grassland, oceans, and deserts. The learning goal will be to research what types of animals and plants live in these  different types of ecosystems. By the use of Google and Gale Online Databases the students will do much of their research. 

Once the students have acquired most of their research they will be ready to make their information presentable. Students will log on to edu.glogster.com to create their Glog with the information they have learned. They will be required to include text, audio, video, and graphics to display their research onto their glog. When students are finished, they will present their glog to the class through Smartboard. This will be an interactive presentation for the entire classroom.
