Question 1
1. Develop a lesson plan for a subject of your choice that incorporates digital technologies.
Explain how you selected the tools and how they support your learning objectives. Ensure that
you demonstrate how you integrated digital technologies in your pedagogy.
Lesson Plan: Exploring Fractions with Interactive Digital Tools (Grade 5 Mathematics)
Subject: Mathematics
Grade Level: 5
Topic: Fractions
Duration: 60 minutes
Learning Objectives:
Students will understand the concept of fractions as parts of a whole.
Students will be able to simplify fractions and identify equivalent fractions.
Students will demonstrate their understanding by creating and comparing fractions using digital
tools.
1. Selection & Justification of Digital Tools
For this lesson, I have chosen the following digital tools:
A) GeoGebra (for visualizing fractions and creating interactive diagrams).
GeoGebra allows students to interact with visual representations of fractions in dynamic ways. It
helps them explore how fractions can be divided into equal parts and how they can be simplified.
The interactive interface engages students in a hands-on learning experience, which is essential for
deepening their understanding of mathematical concepts.
B) Kahoot! (for quizzes and interactive assessments).
Kahoot! offers an engaging, game-based learning platform where students can test their knowledge
through real-time quizzes. It encourages active participation and friendly competition, making it
ideal for formative assessment during and after the lesson.
C) Google Classroom (for class management and resource sharing).
Google Classroom provides an efficient way to organize and distribute resources. Students can
access lesson materials, instructions, and homework directly from the platform. It also enables me to
monitor progress and provide personalized feedback.
How these tools support the learning objectives:
GeoGebra supports the understanding of fractions through interactive visualizations, allowing
students to manipulate fractions and observe their equivalencies. This aligns with the goal of
helping students understand fractions as parts of a whole and identify equivalent fractions.
Kahoot! allows me to quickly assess students' comprehension of the topic by presenting them
with multiple-choice and true/false questions based on fractions, which directly supports the
objective of practicing simplification and comparison of fractions.
