    This document proposes a lesson plan using iMovie to teach pre-K students about preventing the spread of germs. The lesson would begin with a demonstration showing how easily germs spread using glitter. Students would then discuss germ prevention strategies in small groups before splitting into five groups, each assigned one strategy to create an iMovie about. On the next day, students would watch one another's movies and complete a worksheet and oral quiz assessment. The teacher believes using iMovie engages students and encourages higher-order thinking while making the learning fun and memorable.

    ☐ Audio (list application):
    ☐ Other: (list)
    URL(s) to support the lesson (if applicable):
    Bloom’s Taxonomy Level(s):

    ☒ Level 4: Integration ☐ Level 5: Expansion ☐ Level 6: Refinement
    Universal Design for Learning (UDL): This lesson uses multiple means of engagement by providing opportunities to
    learn the content in a large group and a small group setting. The lesson uses multiple means of representation by teaching
    the strategies of preventing germs with a class discussion for the auditory learners and with student-made videos for the
    visual learners. Multiple means of expression are met in this lesson by giving students the opportunity to express what they
    learned by speaking up during the class discussion, contributing to their group project, completing a written worksheet,
    passing an oral quiz, and talking to the teacher individually. The multiple means of engagement, representation, and
    expression used in this lesson allows every student to learn the content, no matter their learning style, preference, or ability.
    Lesson idea implementation: I would introduce this lesson with an icebreaker activity. The teacher will sprinkle glitter
    onto each student’s hands and have the children pretend the glitter is germs. The class will then go around touching things
    in the classroom and each other to see a visual representation of how spreadable germs really are. After that, the class will
    gather as a whole group and we will have a student-led discussion on the spread of germs and how it could personally
    affect us, as well as possible consequences for our family and/or friends. The teacher should scaffold the discussion to
    promote students to use higher order thinking. Then, the class will discuss different strategies we could use to avoid
    spreading germs. The teacher will emphasize on hand washing, keeping hands away from face, covering coughs and sneezes,
    sanitizing toys, and staying home when sick.
    For this lesson’s assignment, students will be split into five groups and each group will be assigned one of the 5 germ
    prevention strategies discussed. The class will watch a video the teacher made about preventing the spread of germs and
    then they will be instructed to create their own iMovie with their group about the strategy they were assigned. Student’s
    will use the school’s iPads, so it will be necessary for the teacher to explain the process to make an iMovie in multiple
    means of expression so every student understands how to do it. The teacher must also review the classroom’s technology
    and internet safety rules. Students will be given the remainder of the day to create their video and the class will watch all
    5 movies the following day. The next day, the class will gather for large group instruction to watch all 5 movies and review
    main components of each strategy with the teacher. Student learning will be assessed individually with a worksheet
    covering the 5 germ prevention strategies and an oral quiz over the lesson. Feedback will be provided in writing when the
    worksheet is graded and through one-on-one conversations with the teacher after the oral quiz.
    Importance of technology: I believe using a multimedia-authoring tool is critical to this project, because it
    encourages students to use higher order thinking skills and levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy, while making the learning process
    fun and memorable. Surely, this project could be completed without using technology. However, I think that the use of
    technology for this assignment would create a great amount of engagement and excitement from students that would not
    be matched by the amount of excitement and engagement from students to do a similar assignment without technology.
    Internet Safety and Student Privacy: Since students will be using the internet and iPads, there are several issues
    that may arise during this assignment. Students will have to search online to find pictures for their movie and could
    potentially find pictures that are not appropriate for children. The teacher filtering their online search results and
    monitoring their online activity can minimize this risk to the student.. Also, the teacher will be sure to review internet
    safety/acceptable use policies to make sure that students have the best and safest online learning experience.

    Reflective Practice: After designing this lesson idea, I feel that the activity positively impacts student learning. I think
    this activity successfully excites students about the assignment and effectively engages students to learn the material.
    There are many ways this lesson could be extended for an entire unit. I would plan a lesson that would teach students
    exactly how to follow the germ prevention strategies they learned. This extended lesson would provide students an
    opportunity to practice and act out the appropriate behaviors from each prevention strategy. An extended lesson activity
    such as this could further benefit student learning significantly.
