In my Integrating Technology in the Classroom class, the big project for the semester requires that we create a unit plan on a subject of our choice. Being that I will be kindergarten teacher, I chose the alphabet. The collection of 26 letters needed for basic vocal communication, literacy, and writing for the most part. The title of my unit plan is "Do Not Forget Your Alphabet".
This week we had to create a lesson plan that goes along with our unit plan. I decided to do an introduction to the alphabet. The lesson had to include online collaborative inquiry to get technology in the classroom. This lesson is best for the first week of school to get an understanding where each student in the classroom stands. My goal for this lesson is to make sure my students are able to recite the alphabet, write it (capital and lowercase), know the sounds each letter makes, and be able to identify a person, place, thing, or idea associated with the letters. Online collaborative inquiry is important to have in the classroom so students learn how to safely use the internet and have a presentable online identity. In any classroom, especially a kindergarten classroom, it is key to use a censored search engine that only exposes children to appropriate online content. In my lesson, I introduced students to a children's search engine that blocks them from unsafe internet content. Even though this is my first time creating a unit or lesson plan, I am proud of the lesson plan I have created. Yes, it may need work but it is my first one. My hope is that after some peer editing and revisions, I am able to use it in my future classroom as the first lesson of the week!
