Lesson Plan Creation!

I absolutely enjoyed making a lesson plan, but as I may have mentioned somewhere before, I am a perfectionist and managed to make a lesson plan that will probably not take that long to do but took over 3 hours to make.

I made a lesson plan geared towards K-1st grade and it was just an adding and subtracting interactive board. The kids have to add or subtract the animals that are in the boxes. It's fairly easy to do and has all the kids on their toes and yelling out the answers. Even as I was doing this, I thought of how I could produce a lesson plan for the kids in the Spanish classroom I work in. Spanish just seems to be perfect for being taught on the Smart board.

It was really enjoyable even though I had not made all three lesson plans (which I'm sorry I never got to, but as you may already know, I am a college student being crushed under many 2 hour long classes and homework).

  1. As in most things that we teachers do creating activities can take a lot of time. Time is something we never have enough of. The great thing about using smart board is that you can get lessons off of smarttech.com and then change them up to suit your needs. The best teachers that I know work a lot of unpaid time. It is expected of you and nobody acknowledges it but the students benefit from it. Over time you will have a library of lessons to choose from. If you know other teachers teaching the same grade you could exchange lessons as well.
