Reflection:
These are all very different examples about a lesson that could be used in a classroom following the fifth grade standards. I just want to clarify that all of this lessons would be placed on a website or blog
that the students create prior to completing each activity. The idea for this is to allow access to other students work in a variety of settings. Students can receive feedback and critiques as to what they are
working on in addition to giving such to other students. It allows for a more effective collaborative effort on all the projects that can be created. All video presentations would be presented in front of class. I
would use these presentations as a form of evaluating the progress and understanding of these students. If a test follows, there would be a specific selection of questions that are based on the
presentations.
