Concept Map Final

Hey Taylor. I just created a new team gmail account for module 6/7 and created our website. Our account name is group.hayesholzer4 and the password is recycling. and this is the URL for the team website https://sites.google.com/site/group4hayesholzer/ I am also going to download inspiration tonight and try and come up with some ideas for our team website!

Revised Concept Map

Module 5

Hi Brianne. I'm starting to work on the assignments for module 5.

For my lesson plan 2 I'm going to focus on the different type of materials that can be recycled (i.e. tin, plastic, glass, and paper) and somehow have the class collect data to find out what the class as a whole recycles the most of.

We are also supposed to update/add more information to our concept map. I still have 12 more days left to access my kidspiration trial so I don't think you will have to download it yet. But, if you have some ideas as to what to add/revise on our map I'm willing to change or add anything!

As far as the podcast assignment goes I'm not sure exactly what we want to do for that. But, we still have some time to think about it. If you have ideas on what we should talk about in our podcasts that would be great! But, there's no rush seeing as its only Wednesday.

Anyways, I hope this was some help/a good start to this week and I'm sure I will talk to you soon! :)

Google Maps Recycling Assignment

This is the link for our Google maps assignment. We wanted to put a place mark on several locations on the map, we placed one at the United States, Canada, Greece, Switzerland and Australia. For each of these locations we wrote under the place marks information about how that country recycles. By making a map like this it was easy to look at and compare and contrast how these countries are similar or different with recycling.

Hi Brianne! I started working on this weeks assignments and the first thing we need to do is work in our group to make an assignment that relates to our topic. I thought our assignment could be:

Compare and contrast differences and similarities of recycling habits between regions.

-Communicate with 5th graders from somewhere either in Canada or Europe
-Contact other students after researching ways we recycle here in the United States
-Questions students could ask/info. to share:
      *different/similar ways to recycle
      *different/similar recyclable products
      *different/similar recycling services
-When students get info. make a Venn Diagram and find the benefits of recycling awareness


So, just let me know your thoughts/ideas about this topic and everything that goes along with it. No rush. I will talk to you soon. :)

Hey! Sorry I have taken so long to respond...I've had a pretty busy week. But, I'm not set on any specific topic for the lesson plan yet. I'm actually kind of confused on the whole thing. I'm going to look at it a little more/figure it out and then post back once I find a topic. Have you made yours yet? If so, what are you making yours on? I hope all is going well and I will post again soon! :)

Hey Taylor, I was reading through module 3 today and saw that we each need to create a lesson plan using a different concept on the concept map. I was planning on starting to work on this assignment tonight or tomorrow so I was just wondering if there is any specific concept that you wanted to use for your lesson plan. Thanks!

Hey! glad we got it working! I think your concept map looks really good right now and for this time we were only supposed to submit one right? Because on e-learning she said our 30 day trial will run out if we both download inspiration at the same time. So just making sure? ha But I think you put a lot of good ideas into the concept map!

Hey! Looks like we got it to work. I'm sure you saw I posted a rough draft of a concept map. Hopefully this is what we had in mind for recycling. Obviously we can make changes and combine both of ours to make the final draft. I'm open to anything! :)
