 * Subject area(s): Grade Level:Six**

**Learning Objectives:**

By the end of this lesson, the students will: Materials: ||. || . || Questions for "Think Sheet"1.2.3.ETC. [|] **Match Objectives to Computer Functions** The objective can be matched to various computer functions by comparing the learning tasks required by the objective with the functions of the computer. It is important to emphasize the "action" portion of the objective when aligning it with the computer. Briefly describe the computer function(s) and the supporting application (e.g., write - word processing, sort - database; calculate percents - spreadsheet, etc.). [|return to model] [|] **Specify A Problem** What problem will your students be solving? Write the problem statement in the language you will use with your students. For example, "What is the most common leaf shape in our playground?" Remember that the solution of the problem should also result in students' attainment of the learning objectives. Problem Statement for Students:
