“ Algorithms in our life” Grades 3-5

1. “Algorithms in our life”Grades 3-5 Ch.Myagmargarmaa

2. Unit Plan Summary: New students and some returning students are not familiar with the staff and room locations of teachers in grades K-5. My class will create a booklet for other students to familiarize them with the school and the staff.  Students will generate interview questions, complete the interview, and create a page for the booklet. Hopefully they will then create a video of these interviews as read by the student.

3. Essential Question What well defined instructions do you do every day?

4. How do you go to the school? • How do you solve geometr problem? Define it step by step Unit Questions Content Questions • How do solve triangular perimetr in math? • How do I use the computer to write my interview?

5. Benefits of Using Project Approaches, Ongoing Assessment, and CFQs in My Unit • Students use their writing skills to write about something important to them—their school. • Their writing has a real audience—new students to the school. • Students collaborate with peers to collect information about the school. • They learn writing and thinking skills while they are working on the project. • Throughout the project they give and receive feedback on their work.

6. By Using Project Approaches, Ongoing Assessment, and CFQs My Students Will: • Experience writing for a real audience and use technology to enhance their learning • Gain self-assessment and self-direction skills that they will use and build on all year long

7. Gauging Student Needs Assessment • I will use my Essential and Unit Questions to: • Find out what students think about what good writing is and how good writers work • Gather information on higher-order thinking and 21st century skills: • By answering how good writers write, students will show their metacognitive awareness of writing strategies • By taking on different perspectives and predicting their needs, students will anticipate what people want to know about the school

8. Gauging Student Needs Assessment • What I will learn from the assessment • What my students think good writing is so I know what to teach them • What writing process my students use • What my students will gain from the assessment • An articulation of their thoughts about good writing • A chance to set writing goals for the unit

9. My Goals • Learn about different kinds of technology that will motivate my students • Find ways to get my students to do more higher-order thinking • Learn some strategies for helping students do projects from other teachers
