Learning Activity #1
I will ensure that the Smart board is ready and synced, as I will be using it to show students
what to do.
Introduction
Time
I will say give me five and when students give me five, I will say today we
get to watch a video! If were all paying attention and quiet we can get to
0.5 min
the computer lab and do this faster!
I will ask students so who knows how to make a word web? to ensure
that students are aware of what a mind map is and what a mind map looks
0.5 min
like before having them make one.
1. Students will raise their hands if they have a question
2. Students will line up quietly at the door, both to and from the
N/A
computer lab

2. Walk to computer lab

4. Make mind map
I will say so we are going to make a word web about a Three Little Pigs

Activity/Activities
When students are done, they may go on cool math games and play a math game. If the
internet is not working, since there were technical issues the other day, students will
draw the story of the three little pigs in several scenes in Paint.
Most students completed their word webs, but the process was much more difficult than I
anticipated. I tried to plan everything into perfect steps and even provide visual
instructions (print screens of what to do) but there was a lot of trouble simply typing
links. I ended up playing the video at the front of the class for students to watch, and it
worked out much better. I explicitly wrote the link to the mind mapping site and
explained that students have to press a key called enter in between words. The process
was lengthy, because I did not expect that students would not know simple keys. I would
not call this lesson a flop, as it did turn out well, but my stress levels were a little too high.
Patience is always key, students will get there if we wait.
