This document proposes a 5th grade science lesson plan that uses the PearDeck tool to facilitate student interaction and collaboration. Students will actively participate by responding to and discussing ecosystem-related questions and slides. The teacher can then assess understanding in real-time and address misconceptions. Follow-up activities will reinforce key concepts based on assessment results.

Subject Area: Science In my proposed fifth-grade science class, I want to make use of PearDeck, a flexible Web 2.0 tool for interactive online boards. Students will contribute actively by discussing and asking questions on ecosystems using PearDeck's interactive slides. In this lesson, we will use the PearDeck communication and collaboration tool along with the student response/assessment tool to enhance student learning and engagement in a science lesson on ecosystems. The purpose of this lesson is to explore the concept of ecosystems and the interdependence of living organisms within them. Communication and Collaboration: Using PearDeck, students will actively participate in the lesson by responding to interactive slides. They will be able to share their thoughts, ideas, and questions related to ecosystems. PearDeck allows for real-time collaboration, as students can view and respond to each other's contributions. Additionally, students can engage in group discussions and brainstorming activities, promoting peer-to-peer communication and collaboration. Assessment and Follow-up Instruction: Throughout the lesson, I will use the student response/assessment tool within PearDeck to gauge student understanding. This tool enables me to pose multiple-choice or open-ended questions to assess comprehension and identify any misconceptions. I will analyze the data collected from the student responses to inform my instruction and address any areas of misunderstanding. Based on the assessment results, I will provide targeted feedback and plan follow-up activities to reinforce key concepts and promote deeper learning. Invitation: I invite you to view my artifact and lesson idea, where you can explore the interactive PearDeck presentation and see how communication and collaboration are facilitated through the tool. The lesson idea provides a comprehensive overview of how this technology can enhance student engagement and support assessment for learning in the context of studying ecosystems.
