LESSON PLAN

Date: 10/21/15

Subject: History

Grade: 5th grade

Goals/Objectives/Standards:
The students are going to use their chrome book outside of school to interview their family members about
the past history of their family. This project will take a couple of months to do because after gathering all the
information that they need, the student will edit the videos to the best of their ability and put them all together
to make one video to show to the class. They will have to add an introduction about themselves and who they
interviewed for their project.
Objectives 1. The students will be able to record, edit and save all of their work on the chrome book for their
project.
2. The students will be able to put together their videos smoothly so that all of it runs together and
makes sense with the short paper that they are going to write to explain in a greater detail of who they
interviewed and where in the family that person falls.
