Lesson Plan

Overview

Students will participate in a community building activity that will integrate Computer Science through the use of the software/Key Note and hardware/iPad. The students will populate an Instagram looking graphic organizer* with a photo of a peer that matches the given criteria such as: Find someone who: walked to school today, is wearing same colored shirt as you, and is the oldest in the family.

ASSESSMENT PRE/POST-TEST

What program do you go to to add your pictures?

What are the 3 rules to follow online?

OBJECTIVES

I can use my iPad and the Key Note program to upload photos of peers based upon a given criteria. o I can use grade-level appropriate behaviors and responsibilities while participating in an online community.

CATCH/HOOK

Teacher shares the Teacher Instagram prepopulated Key Note. See the Empty Key Note slides and populate these with teachers from your school to create a stronger connection and hook for your personal classroom setting.

ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS

Teach students responsible behaviors (how to be safe, be responsible, be respectful) when using iPads, taking appropriate photos of friends (what is acceptable and unacceptable), how students will be grouped (first round: pair third grade class with the other second or third grade class, second round: pair third or second grade class with a first grade class). Discuss options of problem solving with peers if and when they have inappropriate technology behaviors. • Round one: Third/second grade teachers will have students access the third grade Key Note through canvas app. They will edit their name into the Key Note Instagram program.
• Students will all relocate to an open area such as the gym or library and populate Key Note slide with photos of peers who match the prompt given per slide. Teachers will touch base with students: reinforcing appropriate introductions to each other before asking for a photo, taking appropriate photos, and providing a positive parting comment before moving onto the next peer. • Second grade/third grade students will submit completed Key Note project to canvas (First grade will airdrop completed Key Note project to teacher), then return to homeroom class. This document will be used as an assessment. • Those students above will gather in homeroom and complete the learn section of the KWL chart. If time allows, share uploaded Key Note’s with class during this KWL chart time. This will be used as an informal assessment.
