TPACK: Storyboard

Pieces of an example Storyboard are as follows:

Standard 8, Objective 6b

For our 2nd grade lesson, we decided to focus on teaching the children about a different creative form of writing; poetry. After they have created their poem, we will be using Photo Story to help them interpret their poems through pictures they have either found online or drawn themselves. They will also be narrating the interpretation. 

In our lesson, we will be focusing on the 2nd grade Language Arts core content. Standard 8, objective 6b focuses on creating poetry amongst other forms of writing. 

In this project of Poetry Interpretation, the children will create their own piece of work by researching different topics that interest them. They will also be using a specific format of poetry; AABB format. This pedagogy fits with the content because they will be researching a topic of their choice to learn more about it, creating a poem from what they have learned, and doing so in the assigned format; AABB. 

The technology we will be using is called Photo Story. Photo Story is a good fit for our content because it allows the kids to present their poems which they have created not only in oral form but in picture interpretations as well. Photo Story fits with our pedagogy because its allows them to display what they have researched, created into a poem, and have done so in the proper format.
