You've already gotten some good feedback from your peers, and I think your overall plan is solid. I look forward to hearing how the game goes!

I like the idea of incorporating the emotional/greeting words into a story. Good luck, and I'm really looking forward to hearing how this lesson went!

Make sure to include an assessment of background knowledge, as nothing ruins a well planned lesson faster than finding out that you've over or underestimated your student's prior knowledge. Additionally you need to include some way to measure that your lesson was effective, and determine how much/what the student learned. Tue, 09 Oct 2012 02:13:23 -0400
