Week 1 Part 1


Hello!  My name is Georgia Ramsey and I live in Oologah, Oklahoma.  I have been happily married for 24 years and my husband and I have three beautiful children. We have 2 daughters who are currently attending college and one son who is in 1st grade. We live on 10 acres with our amazing 8 chickens.  I have been teaching in Oklahoma for 13 years.  During that time, I have taught pre-k and kindergarten. I have been my building’s LITT (Lead Instructional Technology Teacher) for the last 5 years.  I am responsible for teaching and helping teachers implement new curriculum and incorporating technology into their daily lessons. I am excited to begin the masters program in Curriculum and Instruction.  After completing the program, I aim at moving into administration for an early childhood school.

Korb’s Triple E Framework Engage Technology should be integrated based on what we already know about good teaching and pedagogical practices (Kord, 2020).  Educators know the importance of “I do, we do, you do” and this activity allows for the teacher to demonstrate, then let the students do it together, and monitor as the student completes the map on their own, while offering support and guidance. The activities in this lesson and activity allow the students to remain engaged and focused during each step of the lesson.  The teacher will be available to direct and reteach as needed, as well as provide assistance to students who cannot complete the task on their own. Students will be given the chance to use their own creativity while they complete the map using the shape pieces on the slides presentation.
