Edit for appropriate formatting features (e.g., titles)

In this lesson I used the prometheam board to use a transparency that all the students could see.

Teaching the grammar behind book titles to the class.

TECHNOLOGY IN THE LESSONTECHNOLOGY IN THE LESSONThe way that I used technology in the classroom was to pull up the practice grammar activity and also the grammar worksheet. Below is the practice grammar activity.

What went well? and What would I What went well? and What would I change?change?

Went well:◦I really think that this lesson went well.

The students attention was held and they were very engaged. They loved being able to use the prometheam board, every student was raising their hand to come and give an answer.

What I would change:◦I would make sure that more students

had an opportunity to come up to the board, so that more students would have a chance to use the technology.

Principles of Effective Principles of Effective Student use of

Technology◦ Even though I was the main

person to use the technology for the lesson. Students were allowed to come up to the board and make their corrections, using the pen to write on the board.

◦ The students were also involved in the lesson because they all could see the problems that we needed to correct. So the students were active in the learning.

Technology use is Essential ◦ Using the technology in

this lesson was great and it was planned around the prometheam board.

◦ It was convenient to use this technology in the lesson, just because it was easier for all of the students to see and they could participate instead of me just doing the worksheet myself.

Principles of Effective Principles of Effective Focus on Learning Task

◦ The prometheam board technology is used in this lesson to focus on teaching students the correct way to write a book title.

◦ The students already knew how to use the prometheam board so we only focused on the activity and not using the technology.

Added Value◦ So the lesson plan was

enhanced by using technology, It could have been taught without the technology but it would have been more based towards audio learners, instead of visuals learners.

◦ This made the lesson more effective and allowed for more student participation.
