Power Standard and Link
I am doing a text step in my third grade classroom for my pbl. The text step requires the students to create a power point for a virtual field trip. The students will choose a country to take their class too and talk about the cultures, diversity, and use pictures to show important places in their country. I chose to use social studies power standard 5. Click here to view this standard. Since my teacher wants me to do a text step it is pretty much already laid out. However, I did find a lesson that is similar or could be done along with the text step. Click here for the link to this lesson. There are several other lessons that I found on the the ThinkFinity website that I think would be fun to do along with this power standard. I think teaching children about cultures is very important and is something I am very interested in. I think that this activity would benifit the struggling student in my class or other struggling students because they could use more pictures than words if they struggle with reading and writing like the student in my class. I think that it would also help my student because it might interest them to be able to learn about other cultures and countries. I think it would also interest a struggling student beacuse they have choices to what they use in the their media presentation.
