 * 6 Lesson Plan Webpages** (appropriate to your lesson, include hyperlink and description)


 * 1) [|Halloween Candy Sort] --This lesson plan consists of a class sorting Halloween Candy wrappers in various ways. By doing so students will be able to classify different groups according to size, color and so on.

 * 3) [|Class Color Count] –Students will conduct a survey of students favorite color. By doing this they will learn how to group there findings and illustrate those findings by creating a pictograph which each child will construct.

short review/summary (one paragraph each) of six online articles (researched from homework #1), including a hyperlink:


 * 1) [|Classroom of the Future] – No one is exactly sure of what technology is going to bring in years to come and how it is going to affect the classrooms. Technology plays a huge part in the lives of children and they depend so much on it. The debate on children using technology to learn is what technologies they are going to use to explore and at what age is it all appropriate for them to start. Childhood life is the prime time for children to learn and for them to be stuck in front of a computer at such an early age is a question in some peoples mind. What they are going to need to figure out is the educational strategies and the teaching tools of what the new technology is to bring and if it is going to be okay for young children to learn.
 * 2) [|Traditional classrooms will be history by 2020 predicts"] – By 2020 the responsibility of teachers is going to change in many ways. Students are not only going to be learning new and important information but they are going to have to be able to do things with what they learn. Classroom teachers are not going to be teaching the students they are going to be watching over them do there work. Students are going to learn there work through machines. The school areas are going to be smaller and less crowded this way students can work together and be able to help each other out.
 * 3) [|Theories on the Future of Education] – Technology has affected society in many ways and it will continuously change as time goes on. We cannot control technology; we just have to learn it. What we have learned in school is going to be a lot different from what our future students and children are going to be learning. You have to train your students to be creative and compliant to technology so they are ready for their future. Many teachers are going to have a hard time adjusting to this new technology change but they have to become accustomed to it or else they are going to loose their jobs.
 * 4) [|Classrooms history by 2020] – The way classrooms look now will probably change dramatically as the decades goes on. Children might be doing their work from home and the responsibility of teachers will change because they will send the work to the student’s through machines and will not be teaching in a classroom. The teacher’s job will be to mentor, motivate, and monitor the children.
 * 5) [|How will technology affect tomorrow's classroom?]}– The way children have been learning information has changed greatly in the past twenty years. Children have easy access to the internet and can do many things with it. They no longer need to do research in books when they can just look things up on the internet; it is much faster and easier. They also have quick access to each other through the internet. They can share and teach each other new things and they can learn together. This can be a new way of learning.
 * 6) [|The Next 20 Years in Technology: Timeline and Commentary.] – So many new technologies are invented day by day. Technology in years to come is so unexpected because so much has happened so fast. With the mixture of society and social life so many things are possible. Machines will take over mental and physical work and daily life and work will seem to be a lot more fun. The work day will be more productive and everything will be done through the Internet.
