INTRODUCTION AND GUIDELINES FOR THE USE OF THIS INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGY LESSON:

THESE ARE ALL TECHNOLOGICAL SKILLS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR THIS LESSON TO BE TAUGHT EFFECTIVELY:

TEACHER SKILLS:
COMPUTER SKILLS-HOW TO USE A COMPUTER
SOFTWARE TOOLS AWARENESS-HOW TO USE MICROSOFT
VIDEO-TAPING SKILLS-HOW TO PLAY AND RECORD A VIDEO
HOW TO BUILD A MODEL OF THE LIFECYCLE OF A BUTTERFLY

STUDENT SKILLS:
ALL OF THE ABOVE, HOWEVER WITH TODAYS GENERATION MOST STUDENTS ARE TECH-SUAVY.




LISTED BELOW ARE THE OBJECTIVES FOR THIS LESSON THAT HAS TO BE COMPLETED OVER 3 WEEKS(2 days each week)
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, students will be able to

 

                                                                    LESSON ONE
 Define “Metamorphosis” using a Word-Processing Document with overall average performance.

The teacher would help the students rearrange the classroom.

Once the students are comfortable in their seating arrangements, the lesson would take immediate effect.

The teacher would of previously asked the students to bring two pictures (baby picture and recent.) Based on the student’s response, the teacher would introduce “Metamorphosis” using a “Power-point (Presentation-Software).”


The teacher would integrate the students Social-Studies lesson entitled “The family” with Metamorphosis since it’s based on reproduction. Marzano (2007) focuses on small group work to process new information.

The assessment would integrate “Metamorphosis”, the importance and how it can impact our lives.

Therefore, the students would be put in groups of three to complete a TRUE/FALSE question sheet with ten questions.

They would have to answer/type the correct answer onto the word-processing document.

 ASSESSMENT: A Microsoft Word-Document with ten (10) true/false questions would be used to assess the students’ knowledge on Metamorphosis and its impact. The students would answer the questions in groups of three on the computer by typing TRUE/FALSE next to each of the questions.

ASSESSMENT:
THE TEACHER SHOULD DIRECT THE STUDENTS TO SOFTWARE PROGRAM TOOL"MICROSOFT DOCUMENT TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE DOCUMENT:

LESSON TWO:
OUTCOME: CYCLES AND LIFE-CYCLE OF A BUTTERFLY
 OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, students will be able to:

• Appreciate the “Lifecycle of a Butterfly” by arranging still pictures with 100% accuracy.

After, the introduction of “Metamorphosis” in the previous lesson, she will review the lesson for one minute this week.
The teacher would then explain to the students that there are six important insects that are involved with “Metamorphosis, “however they will be focusing on the “Life-cycle of the Butterfly” since they live in the countryside and they are seeing a lot of these insects around.
The teacher would play a butterfly song while being dressed as a Butterfly. Using another power-point the teacher would explain the stages with still-pictures
                           (1.) Butterfly
                           (2.) Egg
                           (3.)Caterpillar
                           (4.) Chryslis
After the integration of the power-point with the still-pictures, the teacher would assess the students.
They would be presented with a graphic organizer to put the stages in order.
They work in peers to encourage co-operation.
When they have finished with the computers, they would have to the front of the class and put themselves in the order of the stages.
THE POWERPOINT ALONG WITH THE STILL PICTURES CAN BE FOUND HERE:

ASSESSMENT:  A Graphic Organizer with still pictures of the stages would be given to students and they would have to arrange the pictures and the stages in order.

LESSON THREE:
OUTCOME: EXPERIMENTATION
 OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, students will be able to:

Demonstrate on how to build a model of the lifecycle of butterfly by being in peers and video-taping the process with 100% overall process.

•  

•  

• 

  

 

• The teacher would recap “Metamorphosis” and the “Lifecycle of the Butterfly”.

• They would be shown a 2 minute video on how to make the model of a “Lifecycle of a Butterfly.”

• The students would work in peers. They would have to follow guidelines for tutorial that would be made by the teacher for the students to follow. This would incorporate John Dewey’s “Hands on Learning” since they would be doing activities with their hands.
  THE TUTORIAL CAN BE FOUND HERE:

ASSESSMENT: The students would be put into peers to build and record the model of the Lifecycle of a Butterfly over two days.

















HOWEVER BEFORE YOU CAN TEACH THIS LESSON YOU HAVE TO PREPARE YOUR INSTRUCTIONAL ENVIRNOMENT

 

• The students would be in a classroom that is both a classroom and a computer lab that is equipped with all instructional equipment.

• The students would re-arrange the classroom desks in a semi-circle, so that all students would be able to participate and view the PowerPoint being presented to them

• The classroom is very spacious and it has work stations along with each desk.

• The classroom has a projector and a white screen, so the environment would be very effective to integrate technology.

• At the back of the classroom there are computers so it would be very easy for the students to move from one station to another to complete the tasks on the computer.

• At the end of the lesson, they would be asked to follow a tutorial to make a model of a butterfly, so therefore they would have enough space to watch and complete the model with the resources given to them.

• It would also be enough space for the student (physical disabilities) on the disabilities.

•
