  1. I found many of my students asking why we are reading a book about history in English. They do not understand the push for informational texts over fictional works of literature. Overall, I think students enjoyed using Edmodo because they are so immersed in technology in their everyday lives.

  2. For this lesson, I downloaded Youtube videos onto slides. I like having different people explain the same concept. Hopefully, this will help students understand and retain the concepts. I also made a worksheet using forms. I am looking forward to having my students complete the worksheet but have not had the opportunity to use it yet.
