- LAFS.7.W.3.8 is a ELA technology standard that states that students should be able to collect information from multiple sources, determine each sources credibility, and use that information while appropriately citing it. This is important especially for future education in both high school and college when writing research essays. Resource collection and recognizing what is a reliable source is important for creating informative essays in school and the earlier students learn this, the better their writing will get in the future. I do feel prepared to implement this in my classroom because of the amount of practice I have had in my time in school.
- In this lesson plan for a 7thgrade social studies course it evaluates the evolution of voting rights in America. It requires the students to look closely at each amendment that furthered voting rights for different groups of people not only just policy wise but socially. This lesson plan also includes a video which I find very useful and helpful when teaching students. I would use this in my classroom because I find this lesson incredibly important when teaching civics in a classroom and I think it is a great in-depth lesson on the different amendments and the video is also a really resourceful tool that will cover everything the students just learned independently.
- In creating the newsletter, I learned a lot about the creative aspect of Word (which I never really explored in depth before). I could improve my newsletter and my understanding of Word by finding different methods to create the same outcome (such as using textboxes vs one-column paragraph spacing). I could have used WordArt more extensively and decorated my newsletter with more detail. These skills can be used in my career in politics/ lobbying by creating papers such as newsletters that spread word about current events/ social movements.
