TOPIC: MICROSCOPE AND CELL
OBJECTIVE:
At the end of the lesson, SWBAT know the advantages and disadvantages of the Brock and Biological Microscope.
- Students will see an image of the 2 commonly used microscopes in school (Brock and Biological) which will show their parts.
- Students will learn the different parts of each microscope and their uses.
- Students will show their annotated pictures that will highlight the advantages and disadvantages of microscopes.
PROCESS:
TEACHER
Using Flickr, I will upload 2 images that will effectively show the basic parts of these microscopes. Then, I will annotate the basic parts on these images.
The annotated pictures will be shown during our discussion on the use of microscopes.
I will create a Flickr group for the class to enable the photo sharing.
STUDENT
Through their Flickr account, they will upload photos of a Brock and Biological Microscopes (with proper citations). They will annotate these images with notes that shows the advantages and disadvantages of each microscope.
They then will share their annotated photos to the class Flickr group.

Hi Norman!
I like your idea of introducing the two different kinds of microscopes. With the pictures that you have provided, the students will see that there are differences right off the the bat. Some students think that a microscope will just show something magnified to some degree not knowing that magnification can be even greater. With further elaboration, children can discover more hands-on activity with the microscope.
Hellow Norman!
I was interested in the use of flickr in your microscope lesson. Since I believe that children learn in different ways, the use of flickr can be an alternative that may meet some children's learning needs. For instance, I have some students who are struggling writers with the traditional paper and pencil but with the assistance of a keyboard and a monitor, they much more creative in their writing. Just like the adaptive ant in your comparison( I really liked the analogy), I try to be flexible in my teaching in order to meet most of my students' needs in order to see their success.
