  1. Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day A CTAP lesson plan by Maurice Fasenfest , elementary school teacher at Etna Elementary School, Etna, Ca. This is my 20th year teaching primary grades. Lesson is located at http://ctap295.ctaponline.org/~mfasenfe/

  2. EXPECTATIONS 1. Learn how to create a web site. 2. Learn how to use Excel to organize data and create graphs. 3. Become more proficient at word processing 4. Learn how to use PowerPoint to create presentations.

  3. What I Learned I feel I successfully completed all my learning objectives. I feel more proficient at the following: 1. Using Netscape Composer to create web pages 2. Using Excel to display data 3. More expertise at word processing 4. Use of PowerPoint to create a presentation

  4. Successes • “Alexander” was a good choice to maintain student interest. • Students enjoyed viewing the student made book on the web. • Students enjoyed creating e-cards to cheer up Alexander. • Reader’s Theater activity worked well

  5. Technological Successes • Students felt more comfortable using the internet. • Students used links to navigate in the web. • Students used a web-based e-card site.

  6. Personal Successes • I felt much more comfortable with the software programs used. • I felt more confident in using this technology to present a lesson. • One goal I had was to become more proficient at a PC. All my experience so far had been limited to Macs. I completed this course using only PC’s and can use them comfortably.

  7. Comparing Pre/Post TestThis graph shows that pre-test results varied, but all students showed progressafter the unit and passed the post-test

  8. Student ActivitiesThis graph shows student results for each activity

  9. Revisions After looking at the data I decided that the activities needed some cleaning up. Some sections were reworded or organized to be a little clearer. I also decided that some of these activities would be better suited to students who were a little older. Major revisions were not necessary.

  10. Concluding Statements Although at times this course was frustrating as well as challenging, I feel I learned a lot. When I present technology based lessons to a class, I will feel more able to handle problems that may come up. I do feel technology can be a great tool if used appropriately. Basing the lesson on standards gave me an anchor to use in determining if an activity was one I should use in my lesson
