Phase II

1. Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe
• What went well and what didn't go well during the implementation of your lesson?
•  This lesson provided students with a lesson they can use in real life and they could easily relate to any problems they faced. 
• How well was the alignment to objectives and standards maintained?
• The standards of using mental work and being able to calculate while rounding were met.
• Describe any modifications made during the implementation of the lesson
• We did not have to use any modifications for this lesson. 
2. Mechanics:
   • What technologies did I use (for the teacher and the learner)?
   • We used MacBook Pro's and the SmartBoard for this lesson.
   • How were the technologies used (by whom and in what manner)?
   • The computers were used by the students. They used Google Drive to go "shopping" and to record their spendings. The teachers used the SmartBoard as a guide throughout the lesson.
   • My lesson was within the correct time frame
     • It was short because we had fewer students than planning and therefore the lesson was short than expected.
     • It was too long because…
     • The lesson was within the correct time frame because...
3. Assessment of Learning (InTask Standard # 6): Refer to Assessing Student Learning
• Include at least 2 digital artifacts that demonstrate what you or your students (peers) have created as a result of your lesson
• *Miss Brooklyn Meister
• Describe your students' level of success in achieving the standards and objectives for your lesson based on your assessment
• The students were successful in critically thinking about the items they were buying and their necessity. The students also showed their rounding skills on the paper and adding up to a total price without tax. 
• Describe the level of success you had in teaching the lesson
  • How do your individual reflections support this?
  • The students enjoyed how the lesson let them think about their lives outside of the classroom. They understood the concept of money and how to round up in order to get a more accurate total.
  • How do the comments from your classmates support this?
4. What did you learn from designing and teaching this lesson and how will you use this in the creation of future lessons/learning activities?
• I learned how to create a lesson that provides students with a skill they will use in an everyday task. I learned how to make it age appropriate and engaging for their skill level.
