Also, there is the option for them to use storybook online to have the stories read to them. 7.1 Optimize individual choice and autonomy 7.2 Optimize relevance, value, and authenticity 7.3 Minimize threats and distractions Provide options for sustaining effort and persistence Let the students know that if they complete their character traits worksheet, they are free to color in the silhouette. If they dont want to do that, they can have additional blank character trait sheets to compare themselves to their friends with.

We incorporated the Promethean Board, computer to allow the students the freedom to move and use their creativity to answer certain assignments. Videos are also used in order to enhance understanding provided alongside the lesson. What technology was used? By whom? Why was this appropriate technology to integrate? The promethean board and the computer were used by the teacher and the students. The computer is appropriate to use because it allows a different approach to lessons as opposed to the typical listening to lectures. The iPad is used for various reasons throughout the lesson, whether it be for an app to accompany the lesson or for free time purposes.
