Lesson Plan Implementation

Danielle Turner and I collaborated on a project with her combination first/second grade students using FaceTalker and Book Creator.

1. Danielle chose 4 women who were influential during the Civil Rights Movement and divided the students into four groups.

2. To provide background knowledge, the students listened to an article on their subject (Ruby Bridges, Rosa Parks, etc.) read to them from World Book Online. 

3. Miss Turner worked with the groups to read to the students and have them list facts learned about their courageous woman.

4. I came to the classroom to talk about plagiarism and citations. The students created human citations with the bibliographic information from select books.

5. Miss Turner worked with the students to turn the facts into a narration to be read.

6. Miss Turner chose images of the 4 women and created talking faces in FaceTalker.

7. The students recorded their narratives using FaceTalker.

8. I used the Google Doc EasyBib add-on to create a bibliography.

8. Danielle and I worked together using Book Creator to make the book. Enjoy!
