Topic 4
I chose to do a lesson plan for 4th graders on using Parliamentary Procedures. I got this idea while observing a daily classroom meeting that was not too orderly. In my writing exam question, I was asked to think of a lesson plan on a non traditional topic. I had my recent classroom experience in mind and memories of a parliamentary procedure unit I had in high school. I adjusted that down to elementary level as I thought it would be very beneficial to bring order to a brief class meeting to start each day. While viewing the UEN site, I tried out a practice lesson plan on that topic. After additional work on several other interactive 2.0 web sites, I will do my first lesson plan on Parliamentary Procedures for 4th graders.
