Reading Comprehension Worksheet 

2nd Grade Content Standard 7: Use information gained from the illustrations and words in a print or digital text to demonstrate understanding of its characters, setting, or plot.

EdTech Standard 8: Use technology resources for problem-solving, self-directed learning, and extended learning activities. 

  Reading comprehension is a skill that will be used throughout the rest of a student's school years. Learning and practicing this skill over and over will allow for understanding, and mastery of the content of what he/she is reading. Filling out this worksheet can also be done while a student is reading the text which will help them follow along with the plot, theme, etc. Also, students can refer to this worksheet at anytime to assist them before, during, and after reading.

Civil War Timeline

I used the tool Tiki-Toki to create a timeline outlining the events leading up to, during, and after the Civil War. Click on the link below to learn more about the impact the Civil War had on U.S. History! 

Events of the Civil War

5th Grade Content Standard 4: Evaluate the course of events of the Civil War and its impact both immediate and long-term.

EdTech Standard 8: Use technology resources for problem-solving, self-directed learning, and extended learning activities. 

I found Tiki-Toki to be a complicated to use at first, but once I became more familiar with the program it became easier. My favorite thing about using Tiki-Toki is being able to insert images, videos, and links; it helped me add in more information, that I didn't know, about the American Civil War. I really like the idea of teaching History outside of a standard textbook. Using this timeline in my lesson plan, allowing students to take a break from their textbooks, is a great way to engage and expand learning. Also, having the timeline linked to my blog provides extended learning for those that need it outside the classroom. 

Unknown Number Quiz

Unknown Number Quiz Google Forms

1st Grade Content Standard 8 : Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation relating three whole numbers.

EdTech Standard 8 : Use technology resources for problem-solving, self-directed learning, and extended learning activities. 

I love using Google Forms, it is an easy, fool-proof way to create a quiz for my students. It is a great way to assess student learning after I have taught the intended standard in class. It helps me to know if my teaching method is working, and if my students are grasping the subject. Posting this on my blog is helpful for parents as well, so that they can see what my quizzes are like, and how to better help their children succeed in my classroom.

Products of Whole Numbers

Interpreting Products of Whole Numbers Google Slides

3rd Grade Content Standard 1: Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 x 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects in each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 x 7.

EdTech Standard 8: Use technology for problem-solving, self-directed learning, and extended learning activities. 

Google slides is a great way to teach any standard/subject. It is easy to publish and embed on any website, as well as display in the classroom. I found it simple to create a theme through each slide, and copy/paste images. I will use this project in my classroom to teach the standard above, interpreting products of whole numbers. Also, it is linked and embedded on my classroom blog for further understanding if needed. My student's will gain an understanding how to interpret products of whole numbers through examples that are found in this google slide. This is a great tool, and a simple, easy, accessible way to teach any subject!
