Introducing the motion and relative position unit with this engaging and
interactive lesson allows students to demonstrate their understanding of
relative position. Being a new teacher to the Sun West School Division, I
wanted to submit an artifact that included most of the 21st century
competencies focused on within the division thus far. Within this
introduction lesson, students will use their creativity and collaboration skills
to create a collage that demonstrates their understanding of relative
position. Since students are using technology to complete the learning
activity, they are also practicing their digital citizenship skills. The digital
citizenship elements that are addressed within this lesson are: digital access
(element of respect) and digital rights and responsibilities (element of
protect). Students are demonstrating an understanding that using
technology is a right, not a privilege and that they must work together on
the IPads to complete a task. Students will also demonstrate an
understanding that the IPads are being used as a learning tool, so they must
only use them as instructed.
