For this activity, I would like
students to work on their
coordinate plane
understanding. I would first
like students to create a
coordinate plane using
graph paper. I want them to
plot points throughout the
graphs (using decimals as
well) and label them. I would
then have them use Google
Trek to pick a point on the
map and have that correlate
to point (0, 0) on their
coordinate plane. Using the
slopes on the graph, convert
that into latitude and
longitude. I would then have
students talk about where
their new points on the
Google Trek are located and
to justify their answers when
presenting to a small group
of their peers.

Other
Reflection:
These were all activities designed around the 5th grade standards. This activity was a little more difficult for thinking about lessons for (math being the biggest one). I am not sure that I would use this
lesson for math but it was interesting trying to come up with an idea. I noticed that most of my activities involve working in small groups so I would need to make sure that my students are working together
and each are getting a shot at creating points of the Google Trek map. I like the idea of presenting each of these projects to the class to have a chance to receive constructive feedback and have access
to more information than what I could give them. Having students teach their peers about a subject also allows for students to build their confidence in presenting and get comfortable with talking to others
in a way that is understood.
