ISTE standard for my gade level: Conceptualize, guide, and manage individual or group learning projects using digital planning tools with teacher support. (4,6)
But other ITSE standards that fit in this unit are: Illustrate and communicate original ideas and stories using digital tools and media-rich resources. (1,2). In a collaborative work group, use a variety of technologies to produce a digital presentation or product in a curriculum area. (1,2,6)
I will be teaching a unit on poetry. I plan to cover 4-5 types of poems by reading to the class, describing what makes them the type that they are, and having the students write their own. They will also be doing a poetry reading for the class.
Using the technology available to us (the internet) I could try to find the poet (or another famous person) and show them reading a certain poem, as well as show an example of a poetry reading. I could also use my flip video camera when we have our poetry readings and tape some of the children presenting their poetry so they can go back and watch it at a later time. I hope to kind of decorate the room like a café, serve cocoa and cookies, kind of like a real café where they might do poetry readings at (Beatnik-esque).
We have a publishing center at our school, and the children will have their poems published so they each have their own book.
