Early MesoAmerica Project

World History

Desire to use computers, develop creativity, develop cooperation skills, and self directed instruction I developed the classroom MesoAmerican Lesson. This lesson allows students to participate and develop skills. It is a differential instruction for the students who have been having participation problems. I was particularly proud of Class 406, which developed amny skills. I would like to mention a few students and their achievemnts. First a young man named Jose Torres. Pior to starting this project I had not been able to develop a clear understanding of the technics of differential instruction, which motivated him. Upon starting the project Jose developed a creativity and cooperative ability, which was second to non. Along with his cooperation his ability to work well with a partner was remarkable. Secondly, two young women began to devlop. One developed leadership skills and the other developed an ability to come to school on a regular basis. Mariah Torres and Danielle Monteleone continued their work habits throughtout the week. Two of the most remarkable transformations were Johnrobert Hall and Johnathan Matos who showed remarkable skills and the ability to concentrate. The impressive part was that neither student contributed much academically to this point then showed enthusiasm and abilities in construction and creativity. On a whole class 406 out distance all other classes in hteir concentration.

I cant say that all boys are that way but some are. I think they act that way because they just try to show off in front of their classmates or they just think they can just pass by not doing anything because that is how it was in middle school and they think it is still like that now.
