At Pike Road Elementary we use the SMAR model to evaluate our our lessons. Our students use Seesaw to post their classwork and assessments. It is important to use the SMAR model for meaningful instruction. Anyone can post a picture and type in a comment that relates to the work. I have my students video or voice record themselves explaining the assignment, what they did well, how they can improve next time, and a way they could extend the learning. This goes so much deeper for them as they are using critical thinking skills. Mom and dad then see the posts and are able to understand the assignment and ask their student specific questions at home. It opens the door for more communication with parent and child.
As I learned about the TPACK model, I understood how important I am in the role teacher with integrating technology. I am guilty of assigning tasks without throughly diving into what it is I want from students. When I do this, the outcome is usually sloppy and now what I want. By using TPACK, I have to evaluate what I know before I can present the "how" and then use the correct technology tools that benefit the quality of the content.
Standard for lesson
Describe in depth a character, setting, or event in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., a character's thoughts, words, or actions). [RL.4.3],
S The assessment on this standard will include students writing/creating a story on https://www.abcya.com/games/story_maker . Students will include a problem that the character encounters and how the character changes from beginning to end. On completion, students will voice record themselves explaining the story and the character's thoughts, words, and actions.
