Blog Phase 2

1. Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe
• What went well and what didn't go well during the implementation of your lesson?
• The things that went well were the participation when making the "I can describe my popcorn" chart. Another thing that went well was the collages that they made on Pixie.
• The things that didn't go that well were the time frame, and I feel like I read the book to quickly for the students. Another thing that I should have done was buy butter popcorn ahead of time so that they didn't have to pretend it was butter popcorn and I could have used more examples for them to try and relate to their five senses.
• How well was the alignment to objectives and standards maintained?
• I think that I followed along with the objectives and standards well, although I think that I could have had the students share more and hear their thoughts and ideas on their five senses. If this would have been kindergarten, I would have spent more time and used more examples so that they fully understand the concept. 
• Describe any modifications made during the implementation of the lesson
• I didn't really have to make any modifications during the implementation of my lesson but if I had students I probably would have had to speak louder and go more in depth in order to gain the comprehension and knowledge I was aiming for.
2. Mechanics:
   • What technologies did I use (for the teacher and the learner)? How were the technologies used (by whom and in what manner)?
   • I used the smart board to make a chart that described our popcorn and then I used it to do an example of the pixie collage I was going to have them make. 
   • I had the students use their computers to use pixie to make collages after the lesson.
   • My lesson was within the correct time frame
     • It was short because I read the book way quicker than I would have if I was reading to actual kindergarteners. If I would slowed down I think I would have been perfectly on time or just within a couple minutes.
3. Assessment of Learning (InTask Standard # 6): Refer to Assessing Student Learning
• Include at least 2 digital artifacts that demonstrate what you or your students (peers) have created as a result of your lesson







• 
  
• Describe your students' level of success in achieving the standards and objectives for your lesson based on your assessment
• I think that the students were successful in achieving the standards and objectives because they were all able to accurately pair up a sense with something that they can use their sense for.
• Describe the level of success you had in teaching the lesson
  • How do your individual reflections support this?
  • I think the individual reflections support my success because I had some improvements that I could make next time.
  • How do the comments from your classmates support this?
  • I think my classmates gave similar comments as to what I gave myself about my lesson.
