Two Lesson Plans using Google Apps

Graphing with Google Docs and Forms is the first Lesson Plan I chose. It is for K-3 rd graders and is used to learn more about each other while gathering and interpreting data. The teacher creates a sample question form, using Google Form and convert it to a LIVE Form on the day of class. The students will completed the previously brainstormed questions from class and create graphs to help to "quantify" the data. The ISTE standards are: 2a.; 3b.and d.; and 4c

The second Lesson Plan I chose is the Historical Novel. This is for the older students ranging from 4th to 9th grade. Students use various Google Apps, such as Google Blogger, Google Book Search, Google Docs(word processing/presentation, etc) to gather information from their peers about the time period, the setting, characters, main idea of an historical novel. This can be used for a Social Studies or Language Arts classes, as there are so many variations that can be adapted to your specific goals. I think this is great way to "spice up" what may be a very boring project for some students. The ISTE standards are: 1a.,2a.,b.,d.,3a.,b.,c.,4a.,d.,5b.,6a.,b.
