Dear LOR user,

Thank you for being a big part of this community. To better support the initiatives around open educational resources in the state of Michigan, all resources on the Michigan Virtual Learning Object Repository (LOR) are being moved to #GoOpen Michigan on September 30th, 2018. During the transition, our LOR will be moved to an archived state, not allowing new user registration or new content to be added. An email with more details was sent to registered users of the LOR in September. To make use of the great resources on the platform, we encourage you to create an account and add your own new resources to the #GoOpen Michigan platform.

How are the standards/objectives assessed?

  • Student (in groups or individually) design and create their own video (1-5 minutes) teaching one focused grammar concept to their peers.

     

    Students can use a number of Web 2.0 tools, but must share in Google Doc Presentation.

     

    Once students have loaded their presentations, all students will have one week to view the presentations and take a short assessment (teacher created based on content in student created presentations).

    Prior to the diagnostic in this course, I would have a Readiness Quiz. Where students would be presented with simple questions that they would answer on a scale of 1-4. Each number on the scale would have a detailed explanation.

What concepts or procedures are being explained or demonstrated in this lesson object?

Identify parts of speech, pronouns, prepositions, participles, absolutes, appositives, phrases & clauses.

knowledge of grammar through dissecting multiple examples.

What was your experience, both successes and challenges, using this lesson object with your students?

While this plan is intended to cover an entire semester, I have not worked through every detail. The online assessment only addresses the semester’s final assessment, while many other formative assessments are noted in my To-Do List.
