March 4

Redang chapter 7, abput introducing th Internet, made me think back to my lesson plan critique. I teach Kindergarten and I feel they are not too young to learn about the Internet. I feel like my lesson plan I critiqued would be a great way for them to learn more about the Internet. However, I would have to do it in whole group first, small groups, so I could help them better, and, finally, let them work on it individually. This basic outline could be used with whatever you are studying, however, my particular lesson plan was about bears. The goal of the lesson plan was to, eventaully, have the children find a present a fact that they learned, from the Internet, about their favorite bear. This woud be presented with a picture the found on the Internet. The first time they did this on a topic, it would take a while. Eventually this would take about a week. This simple lesson on bears could easily be used for learning about anything, which is basically what we use the Internet for. This is real world learning at it's best.
