You Are the Teacher--fortunately, you are part of a team.

  NOW it's YOUR TURN!
You have been paired with another student.
You and your partner are going to teach the class. 
Below are the teams and the topic you will teach.
Time for the student to become the Teacher.

There will be several assignments with this project. 
Always use GOOGLE APPS if available.
Share you documents and presentations with your partner. 
3 Teams will present each day, ch day. That's a half hour each.







First Lesson:
One of you create a document and share the document with your partner. Using the internet and guided by your own desire to learn while you are also teaching. Create an outline of your lesson.

First, write out the objective that you want for your students to take away from this lesson.

EXAMPLE: Following the lesson the student will be able to differentiate the difference between the Federal Bank, Private Banks, and Credit Unions.

Second, under each objective write out the steps that you will take to teach that objective.EXAMPLES are:
  1. Discussion Questions
  2. Lecture
  3. Guided Small Group Discussions
  4. Interactive Media or Drama
Both you and your partner MUST embed the document in your BLOG. If you did not create the document you will need to first make a copy of the completed document to your DRIVE, then you can EMBED your copy.


Second Lesson:

One of you create a document and share the document with your partner. Copy the following shared document into your DRIVE.

Click on the EXAMPLE Lesson Plan below. It will take you to a blank lesson plan that you will not be able to EDIT. You must FIRST make a COPY of the document, that will save an editable version of the Lesson Plan in your DRIVE.

SHARE the Lesson Plan Document with your PARTNER together both of you will create the lesson plan for what you plan to teach, for how you are going to present, and what assignment or activity that your students are going to participate in.

Here's the EXAMPLE:

Third Lesson:

Using GOOGLE APPS or PREZI (any other software or online applications can be used only with advanced instructor permission), prepare any notes, presentations, demonstrations, and a plan for the presentation of your lesson.

An example of a plan can be very similar to the lesson plan, with the exception that you have noted what will take place and the amount of time necessary for that particular event. Also, make notes about facts, or statistics, points of discussion at certain points of the lesson, etc. This is the PLAN that you have of how you want the lesson to go.

REMEMBER: You have only 20 minutes for your lesson. This time includes interuptions as well as time taken to maintain classroom discipline. I WILL NOT provide assistance in this area, unless it becomes absolutely necessary. You should be prepared with a DISCIPLINE PLAN for such events.

Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, & Seventh Lesson:

Be sure to SIGN-UP for a time to TEACH your LESSON using the POST immediately following this POST. You will receive grades for the above THREE lessons, and you will also receive grades for the following that must be PRESENT in your INSTRUCTION for the class:

  • #4 - 10 POINTS: Over-All Presentation: Were you prepared? Did you answer questions? How well did you know and understand the topic? How well did you interact with the class? And, was the instruction COHESIVE, did each section work with and tie into the previous section of your instruction?

  • #5 - 10 POINTS: Quality and Use of Presentation and Technology in the course of the instruction. Were slides text heavy or images heavy? Were they relevant to the topic? Were they designed to emphasis the topic, or did you just read what was written on the slide?

  • #6 - 10 POINTS: Was the assignment to the student relevant to the topic? Did the Assignment reinforce what was taught or did it assess what the students had learned? (both are good, but if both are missing, NOT GOOD) Was the assignment engaging maybe even fun to do?

  • #7 - 10 POINTS: Each student will send an email with a summary of this project, a description of how well you worked with your partner, and then will give their partner a score of 5 to 10 (low to high).
