b) Age: mainly 12-14 y/o mixed and placed by ability
c) Education level: A mixed 6th/7th/8th grade level, placed according to ability
d) Number of participants: 16
3. How was topic determined (Did you speak with anyone about the group? Did
you get to observe the setting and participants beforehand? If so, describe the
participants and any other pertinent information (i.e. if in a classroom, observe
classroom management techniques).
The topic was determined by both Cindy and Mr.Fontaine. Ashley and I both had the
option to observe before hand. Also, this is going to be our second presentation so we
know what the expect based on our first presentation last week. Both me and Ashley
found that the people at Kurn hattin behaved better than the fourth graders at
Malborough school which was the presentation age group we worked with prior to Kurn
hattin. Mr. Fontatine isnt afraid to step if students got aggressive and were yelling at
each other. Classroom management techniques are what we make of it. We choose to
raise our hands when needed and told them they had to raise their hands as well.
a) Other programs recently presented:
Water cycle & soil (October-November).
b) What the audience knows:
The audience is composed of students from all ages and backgrounds. Some
students have never been to school and this is their first experience, others
have attended before. Students are placed in classes according to ability and
not by age so this is not your typical class of students.
c) What the audience wants to know - what is relevant:
Relevant from other in class presentations in this unit:
o The audience knows the basics about water, soil, erosion, and the food
cycle.
d) Evaluate health literacy - and other cultural issues:
There will be varying health literacy among this class because all of the students
come from many different backgrounds.

2.
Based on the results of the needs assessment, what did you do to prepare?
We prepared what we discussed with Cindy in the form of an outline. Then from there
we were able to go ahead and create a powerpoint, activities, and handouts. This way
we knew we were on the right track with Cindy and could give a presentation that hits all
the items we should.
3.
How did you go about the development process? Who was involved?
The development process involved both Ashley and myself. We were able to go to the
store and get the items for our project together. Ashley came up with the activity. Both
of us created the powerpoint and both researched the topic. Since I did the handout for
the last presentation Ashley did it for this one. I focused more on finding content and
working on the powerpoint.
4. What resources did you use? Why did you choose them and how did you
find them? Relate back to your assessment section.

2.
Describe how your presentation addresses different learning styles:

List ways that you included multiple intelligences in your planning.
We have talking points, stories to connect to the lesson, we are giving them a
visual hands on activity to get the class involved and thinking about green house gases.
4. What problems did you encounter in the development process?

Me and Ashley had difficulty coming up with an activity. We also had trouble getting our
activity to work but ended up figuring it out after many test trials. The planning came
smooth because we choose to do the outline instead of a powerpoint and have to
change everything. We learned that on our last presentation for KH that we should do
an outline and get it okayed before proceeding.
Note: I did not include the second part of the COP because we didnt get to
present our work to the students at Kurn Hattin becau se our presentation was
cancelled.
