GAETI 2015 DAY 6

Wow. Today was GREAT! We initially started off with some information heavy material focusing on standards and lesson plan writing. We touched on DOK levels and Bloom's Verb list for writing educational objectives. After our lunch break, we returned to an afternoon filled with FUN.  The Mississsippi Department of Transportation gave a overview of resources that they offer to educators to implement fun mathematical and science lessons for elementary and secondary schools.  The curriculum is aligned with the Mississippi standards and is totally FREE!!! We had a hands on training, that evolved around math and engineering concepts.  We designed and built  bridges from a light weight wood, and competed to see whose bridge was the strongest design. Guess what? I won!! My bridge held 7- 12 oz bottles of water.  We had a fantastic day at GAETI. Go bulldogs
