Hi! I’m Jana, an academic coach who also teaches first grade. I submitted a lesson plan (that I hope is published) using the Nouns video. We watch the video to introduce the concept of nouns. We sort nouns by person, place, thing, or animal. Then I model highlighting nouns in a writing piece and sorting those nouns I highlighted. Lastly, I have the students highlight nouns in their writing and sort those nouns.

Hello! My name is Joy and I am an Intervention Specialist. I love the BrainPOP video on angles! The lesson plan I submitted begins with students watching the BrainPOP video on angles (it does such a good job giving them an overview and exposing them to the vocabulary). Then the kids are given digital cameras to find examples of the different types of angles int he school. Students then create a poster, book, or digital project to show their angles. Using protractors, the kids get to measure the angles. The lesson is finished up with the quiz from BrainPop.

Hello! I am Kathy Keith, an Intervention Specialist for K-3. I think the video on counting coins was awesome. My lesson plan incorporates the video and practice to help students become successful at counting money.
