The point of this lesson was to incorporate technology and make a presentation about all the things they learned in second grade. By bringing in technology to develop a class video that included pictures and sound was an awesome way for the kids to express what they learned throughout the year and what they really remember the most about the year together. The kids really enjoyed doing this and were engaged and excited about putting something together that was done by them. The kids were very proud of this project. By using technology to bring together what was learned by students and the grade level curriculum is a great way to engage students and get them involved in the learning process. The kids had a really exciting time creating and sharing ideas they had about what they learned during the course of the school year and by using technology the kids were able to build on their 21st Century skills which are going to be very important for them in the future. By using all different kids of multi-media during the lesson I was able to connect to students with various learning styles and abilities. The lesson engaged the students and was technological interactive which helped me meet the needs of all my students no matter what their skill level was. The kids really enjoyed using different kinds of technology to help assist their learning. There are always going to be change in a lesson and in being a teacher you have to be willing to have an open mind and change what is necessary to build your students learning. Because of the multiple needs, abilities, and backgrounds of my students adjusting my lessons is important to reach all my students. This lesson can be changed and tweeked very easily so all students can be reached.
