The students will first view the video that I have created, and then they will find a wind related experiment. They will then conduct the wind experiment and create a presentation that they will share with the class about their findings.

 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">The technology used in this lesson changes the teaching / learning in this way: **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">For this lesson I have created a video that poses a lot of questions for the children to think about while they are learning about a new subject. There are question spreaad out through the presentation that the children have to figure out the answer for themselves, but while they may not know what the answer is I have provided pictures for them. They can view the pictures and conclude on their own the answer to the questions. The technology also allows for the students to see the information while they are hearing it allowing them another way to internalize what they have learned.
