  1. Money, Money, Money!An Addition to the Open Court Money Unit, Grade 3. Mary Wilson Dudley Elementary, Antelope, CA CTAP 295 Teaching With Technology

  2. Mary Wilson, Dudley Elementary, Antelope, CAMoney, Money, Money • I am a third grade teacher who uses Open Court faithfully for my language arts program. • However, I wanted to put a spin on things. • So I created a web-based lesson to go along with our money unit. • Students are enabled to take a virtual journey and learn about currency around the world. • marwilson@jps.net • http://ctap295.ctaponline.org/~mwilson/

  3. What I Expected… • To learn a little bit of this and a little bit of that! • Powerpoint • Excel • Web design • Net surfing

  4. What I actually learned… • How to design a web-site that my class can use • How to design a powerpoint presentation • How to use the web to help in my cause • How to use excel for data analysis • How to be “internet savvy”

  5. Great Achievements • Students loved it! • Students were successful. • I am so much better at this now! • I’m comfortable using technology. • My activity enables students to practice their skills and get feedback from me indefinitely.

  6. Just Look How They Did!

  7. But… • Not every student has access to a computer outside of school. • I have to build in on-line time more consistently so everyone has the same ongoing opportunity. • It would be nice to have more adult help in the computer lab to ease the fears of a few students.

  8. Compromises and Changes • I had to add a rubric which addresses how the e-mail looks, not just what they learned. • So I used the rubric which is already in place for our district, keeping things consistent. • I made it a new goal of mine to allow internet use bi-weekly so nobody is left out.

  9. In Closing… This experience challenged me like no other. I started out as a terrified teacher trying to learn a few things about computers. I froze at the thought of designing a web page. I went through denial of why I needed one anyway. Then I created something I will use for a long time to come. I hope you can use it too.
