Topic:

Content:
-As the teacher, we want the children to be able to use a computer along with understanding the text from the book.
-If the student is able to achieve both, then the teacher is very successful.

3.Allow them to advance their learning from a different source that they may feel comfortable with.

Material and Aides:
1. Text book.
2. Computer.
3. Knowledge

Procedures and Methods:
A. Introduction-
1.Review over any materials that may not be understood completely through.
2.Tell the students about the project and what we will be doing.
3.Then take them down to the computer lab for them to start up their project.

B. Development-
1.Briefly explain what is going to be done.
2.Tell them they can go on both of the teachers Lesson Plan Attachment to their blogger to see an example.
3.And start them with brainstorming words.

C. Practice-

Evaluation:
1.So by being able to use the computer, we are helping the students relate their learned material to present time.
2.Also in class we can have a pretty fun day to review.

Teacher Reflection:
Students will get all of their work in on time. From this, the teacher is able to see a hands on experience. Along with that, the teacher will know if the students read the text. And the teacher can see if the work is helping them comprehend what is going on.

Example Crossword Puzzle

The actual picture will not come up of the crossword puzzle so when you guys do yours, you can just post your clues and we can just answer the question. So you just need to print out your crossword puzzle and hand them to d and me!

But sorry that the blogger picture crossword will not work.
