What is War? Viscast
5th grade Social Studies Standard 2 Objective 2
We chose to do this topic because we thought our students should learn about war and learn about the Revolutionary War. Students will learn about war and a little about why war is going on and that we are still involved in wars today and will be in the future. They will also learn some about our troops and soldiers fighting for our freedom today.
This podcast connects to INTASC standard number 2 A and C. We demonstrated knowledge of content as well as designed and articulated our instruction and aligned it with the Utah Core Curriculum standards.
Some of the draw backs to using this vidcast in my classroom would be that it might not be age appropriate or that there is too much information and it might get a little old after a while.
I would love to use this series in my future classroom but I would make it more to my standards and personality than compromising with my partner because I am really picky. I would use this vidcast for an introduction to war and freedom and help my students understand and engage and connect it to their lives.
