Instructor: Ashton Henry

Students: Grade 3

Age group: 7-8 Years old

This video I created aims to educate students on the topic of fractions from the 3rd grade ranging from 7-8 years old. Many choices I made were influenced by what we’ve learned in the course so far. Choices like the colors were important as I wanted them to contrast for easy-to-read sections so I chose white for the background and black for the text. I used what we learned on storytelling to hopefully kindle interest in fractions using my lesson with a story that could be seen as relatable. Another important part was relating to previous knowledge and asking them to see what they can notice in their own life would tie in knowledge to the outside world helping kindle a better understanding of the topic. Using the right imagery helps a lot due to the fact these are young students so keeping attention can be difficult. The tone I spoke with in the video was a bit more upbeat as you have to keep it light so as not to make students lose interest. Adding in the 2 questions can also help with engagement as it makes students think about what they’ve learned. Since we have gone over accessibility I decided it would be important to add subtitles to this video allowing it to cater to a completely new audience and making it easier to view. Overall I believe the combination of all of these points allowed me to create an effective and engaging lesson.
