Reflections: With the individual lesson, the students did well with all activities in this lesson. The only issue was that several needed extra guidance in working with MicroSoft Publisher. This can be dealt with by having a mini-lesson on its use before using this lesson again. With the group project lesson, students love to interact with the Smart Board, allow them to come up and fill in the concept map. Even if using an overhead projector, students can still have this avenue to put them in charge or “teach” for a moment. This is one of the areas that went well. In looking back, it might be better to use small groups to complete the portfolio and spreadsheet activities.
