journal 3

I read and picked grade 3 for the ELA. The one standard that stood out and got my interest is LAFS.3.RI.2.5. The reasons it got my attention was it was knowing how to use hyperlinks, sidebars, and key words. Also to locate relevant information to given topics. Which I recently learned this year on how to use and which was also interesting because 3rd graders are learning how to use. But now that I know how to use it I would teach the students and walk them through the process multiple times. Then I would sit with one on one and have them walk me through it. I changed up the grade and went 6th grade mathematics. The toolkit I would use is the is the student resource. It has videos and examples to help the student understand the curriculum. I would have the student do one section a night and have them write what they learned and what the section it was. Also have them write a summary how helpful it was. This resource can be used at home if they have questions or if they are stuck on a problem. Doing the newspaper was giving me all sorts of trouble and headaches. It was definitely out of my comfort zone. I never had trouble with an online assignment like that. But once I got the hanging of it and understanding of it, it got easier as the assignment went on because of the practice in class. I miss read some of the instructions but went back and fixed them. But now understanding the tools in the toolbar I can navigate and make an exceptional newsletter when the time comes for the next one. But practicing more and more made it 100 times better. Also, learning new and better ways I can improve my skills.
