https://webmaker.org/literacy Connecting: Participating on the web Sharing: Students post in the Google Group Collaborating: Students respond to others in the group, furthering the discussion

Lesson Development -activities and transitions (CCT Domain 1): Review HW and pass out Chromebooks while explaining we will be discussing our story via online discussion. Show Google mail tutorial. http://screencast.com/t/MP8tyYvM7 This models how to log in, send email, and start group discussion about characters from novel. I will model how to create an appropriate response. Students will attempt logging in. They will attempt to respond to “First Post” in the discussion group. Finally, students will respond to post about characters from story using examples from the text.

Instructional Strategies (CCT Domain 2 & 3): Modeling Guided practice Independent practice

Modifications and Differentiation (CCT Domain 2): Students who do not have their internet permission slip handed in can not use Chromebooks. Therefore, they will complete the assignment using written response. Once they hand in their permission slip, they may add their answer to the group discussion. Students who are not grasping the objectives will get my assistance via Google comments. I will also walk around to direct students. I will email students the tutorial so they can re-teach themselves.

Assessments-Formative and/or Summative (CCT Domain 2 & 3): Student emails and responses will show me they understood the lesson. Responses to the character question must meet the rubric expectation.
