TPACK for Tech Savvy Teacher

The content that I will be using in my science lesson deals with health and the importance of a healthy, balanced diet.  Second graders will learn about the different food groups and the importance of each food group.  At the end of the lesson, they will create their own healthy, balanced diet.

The pedagogy in the lesson is doing hands-on activities.  I know that I learn best by doing.  Thus, students will be doing hands-on activities during the teaching and learning process.  One of these activities is using technology-Kidsperation and digital cameras to be exact-to sort foods into food groups and then create their own balanced diet.  Both the pedagogy and technology fit extremely well with the content because they both deal with exactly what is to be studied.
