Comparing+Living+Things


 * Explain your project and the reason you choose it.

I choose my topic because kids love to learn about animals and science. My topic is on comparing animal parts like wings, fins, feathers, fur, and skin. So I separated animals in there classes and talked about fish, birds, insects,, reptiles, and mammals. Its for kindergarten science.

Describe how you are going to use your lesson in the classroom and what students will learn. I am going to use my point for my students view and go into and look at what they want and then they will learn that animals have different parts and they are not all the same.

Explain the student assignment and your perception of it. Students will view the power point by themselves and I will go around a help students we will have a discussion about the animals and how they all have different parts. Then the students will have an assignment to go take pictures of all the different animals we talked about, I will have a link to Picasa and once they have taken their pictures they can up load them to Picasa and make a movie. I think it will get students thinking about all the different animals and how they are the same and how they are different.

Explain the benefits of using an interactive power point for creating a lesson. Kids are engaged to learn when using an interactive lesson and its fun and exciting for them to learn and they really enjoy it.

What concepts did you learn that will help you incorporate PowerPoint in your teaching I learned how to embed movies into power point and add music and over all I learned a lot more about power point and learning all that will help me to want to use power point more in teaching because its fun and you can teach a lesson nut still incorporate games, music, movies, and alot of other things.

What worked well? Embedding movies into power point and using the Word Art for my text and using pictures.

What did not work well?

I really took me a lot of time to finding all the pictures, movies and information I needed.

Final thoughts

I really like power point and I will defiantly use it in my classroom.
