As I started creating my curriculum goals sheet there were many things that came to mind. I wanted to find a topic that aligned with the states standards, could apply to many real life situations, help my students in future classes and careers, and most importantly, be easy to access with many engaging activities used in the internet. I think that technology is growing faster and faster which ist is why it is important for these young students to understand how to use it. Especially in math the use of technology will be really helpful to my students. Making this curriculum web will allow my students to connect the internet to learning, as well as use more intelligences while learning math.
In chapter 3, there were many things touched upon in planning a curriculum web. You must consider your teaching points you want your students to master, what your students want and need, engaging activities. and the content specific topics before creating your curriculum web. All of these I took into great consideration while planning out my curriculum goals.
I think that also a major purpose of this curriculum web is to enhance the students learning. This curriculum web could be used in and outside of class. It could be used as an extra spin on a lesson that will keep students engaged as well as present information in a different way. It also could be used at home as a homework assignment or chapter review. Finding specific online activities is a way of teaching on a new level, creating new experiences to your students. It also teaches the students another lesson in using technology.
