EXPECTATIONS Doing a lesson that uses the computer Using links for students and teacher Using excel to show results Using power point to share lesson
4
How to get students to use links on the internet How to build a lesson on a web How to use excel The many aspects of homophones, homonyms, and homographs.
5
Students were engaged Students enjoyed the online activities I can build more lessons using the internet and excel Matched standards
6
Finding the correct pretest—students had to take it twice. Is a good tool? Time available in the computer lab Time to do actual practice before the post test Unit took longer than expected
7
The students did improve in the post test and met at least a competent status on the rubric for writing.
8
T he pre test/post test needed some HELP! I revised it and had the students take it again. They were patient and helpful and actually helped me do the revisions. I also found more web sites where they could practice the use of the words more. Although I did this lesson with students in two eighth grade classes, I used data from only one.

I had no idea that there was so much interest in homophones, which is such a small part of the whole picture in Language Arts. This project has taught me how to enhance each lesson I do by seeing what is available online. There are other technologies I’d like to add for the students-- -they were limited to what we had available to me and to the school.
