Direct Instruction
This lesson shows a guided reading session linking to our topic of the week "The Olympics." This reading session shows how to use a digital journal article rather than a hard copy of the school journal. As a group we went through step by step how to download the journal article digitally and also how to use a chromebook during a reading session.
This group haven't previously used on online text during our reading this year so it shows exactly how you could do this with your own class if they are using chromebooks as a reading tool for the first time. This lesson shows step by step how to do this and then allows the learners to try this themselves. I find this is the most effective way when teaching something new on their chromebooks as there is less distraction and they know exactly what to do after being shown.
