A list of curated resources to enhance my 'HyperDocs' lesson.
Description: This video shows an explanation of the roles and responsibilities of a variety of community helpers.
Rationale: I chose this video to accommodate and meet the individuals needs of my young students who may be more of a visual learner instead of an auditory or kinesthetic learner.
Description: This video teaches young students about a variety of community helpers and the characteristics of each helper.
Rationale: I chose this video to meet the individual needs of my visual learners that would become more engaged with a video rather than a lecture.
Description: This game teaches young students about many common and uncommon community helpers.
Rationale: I chose this game to meet the individual needs of my kinesthetic learners. I also chose this game as a way to engage my students with an interactive, hands-on activity, rather than to disengage my students with only a class lecture or class discussion.
Description: This video represents an array of important jobs that are completed each day by our very own ‘community helpers!’
Rationale: I chose this video to help teach my young students about the role that each community helper plays within our community.
Description: This website contains an interactive, online game that quizzes students' understanding of how to identify the correct community helper.
Rationale: I chose this educational video as a way to assess my students' understanding of the concept or standard being taught.
Description: This video represents multiple community helpers within the 'Bear Country" and the roles and responsibilities that each helper has to make sure that the community is safe and sound.
Rationale: I chose this video as the opening of my lesson, to be able to grab students' attention and get their brain juices ready to go! I also chose this video as a way to encourage my students to begin thinking about what they want to be when they grow up, and how they become a 'community helper' while 'on the job!'
Description: This website displays an online, interactive game for students to match the correct object that belongs to the correct community helper.
Rationale: I chose this website as a way to assess students' understanding of the concept being taught.
Description: This video displays each letter of the alphabet with each letter being spoken as well as the sound. Each letter represents a community helper.
Rationale: I chose this video to enhance my students' knowledge of the alphabet and to help teach my young students the beginning letter and sound that is included in the title of the chosen community helper.
Description: This image is a visual representation of a selected number of community helpers.
Rationale: I chose this image to meet the individual needs of my "visual" learners that may understand the concept or standard better if they are able to "visually" see the concept or standard being taught.
Description: This website has many free resources to use that would be aligned with a ‘community helpers’ unit. One free resource was a sight word emergent reader for community helpers.
Rationale: I chose this website because many of my students will be visual learners and will be more likely to grasp a better understanding of the concept rather than listening to a lecture.
Description: This website represents an array of important jobs that are completed each day by our very own ‘community helpers!’
Rationale: I chose this website to help teach my young students about the role that each community helper plays within our community.
