Logistical Planning:
I will take the students to the media center and do
a test run of the videoconferencing. I will teach
the students to introduce themselves to the content
provider, speak clearly and concisely and be prepared
for the time delay. I will set up the room so that
quiet students will sit in the front.
Techniques and Tools:
Students participate in classroom discussion
throughout the unit and I can observe who is on task and
understanding and who needs some prodding & assistance.
The students take quizzes throughout the unit and will
write a 3-5 page paper on the themes and images in both
plays. They will use class discussions and
Internet research as the basis for their paper. |
