Hello Everyone! I'm a little exhausted in this video (3am,) but I tried to give you a brief overview of an example of a "video recap" that I give to my students.

Objective: (1) Collaboratively develop instructions for planting, tending, and harvesting potatoes. (2) Track the migration of a staple crop across cultures.

5 E's: Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate

Teacher Tips:

• Engage: Students will play the role as a new educator for their local Farmer’s Market! In order to create a lesson for elementary students on potatoes, they (as the teachers) must learn a little about this important crop.
• Explore: Students will read/analyze children stories, videos, and articles which discuss the importance and application of potatoes as a crop.
• Explain: Students will present and create an educational brochure for the farmer's market.
• Elaborate: Students will conduct two laboratories in order to elaborate the use of potatoes in past and current cultures.
• Evaluate: After they have completed their research. Students will create a Screencastify video. Students will also complete a works cited page to provide credit to the websites that they used for their work.
