DURING CLASS:
For the lesson, I will be using an onscreen presentation that I created with photos and informational text. In addition, I expand the educational content by integrating elements of math, geography and vocabulary. As I present the content of the lesson, I will be asking students guided questions about the material. I will answer student questions AFTER every 3-4 slides. Students can raise their hands with questions about the lesson so far.

MUTING: 
Students will need to know how to locate and use the MUTE control on their device as we will be muted during the lesson to control audio static, echo and personal background distractions for the group.

QUESTIONS:
I will stop to check for questions about the current material every 3 to 4 slides, so students can raise their hands and then unmute when called on for their question. Students can also use the CHAT feature to type in questions or comments or answers to questions.

PARTICIPATION: I encourage students use a notebook for writing notes, questions or vocabulary words. They can also use the animal fact organizer worksheet found as a download in the classroom. They can also use the chat feature for comments that are not questions. I will be giving students chances to participate by raising hands for teacher directed questions every 3 to 4 slides. This is so we can stay on-topic and dive into the material.
