Localizing my lesson

“Localizing My Lesson”
I made a multimedia lesson plan on “Community Helpers on Guam”. I was so unsure of what multimedia tools I would be using for my lesson plan. I had many ideas that I wanted to do, but I didn’t know how I will go upon doing so. So I decided to make a lesson plan on a digital story book for fifth graders. I choose the topic “Community helpers on Guam”. I chose this topic so that students could make up a story and localize it from the island. The multimedia tool that I used was a digital camera and windows movie maker. The children will make a digital story on the computer in small groups. There are many different ways to integrate computers in the classroom to promote a different learning experience.
In the standards teachers should “design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity”(NETS*S). With this lesson plan, children will be able to create a digital story book. The students will learn the elements of a story, writing a story, and they will be able to learn different community helpers on Guam. I feel that all my students will have fun working on the project for the digital story book.
