For our last and final day of teaching we decided to do a cooperative lesson plan incorported with another group in the class and tie our topics together and for the students to learn how goods, services, producers, and consumers are interrlated through the process of the assembly line. We first started by asking the students if they remembered what is a good? what is a service? What is a consumer? what is a producer? One the students answered these questions by raising their hands and using their prior knowledge, we taught the students about how goods get from the factory to the consumer by sometimes using an assembly line. We then had the students get into groups of four and each student recieved a postit sticky note with a number on it, indicating what step they were in the assembly line. The first student was to fold the piece of paper in half "like a hot dog. The second student then took the same piece of paper and folded it in half "like a hamburger". The third student took the piece of paper and folded it "like a hamburger again". and the fourth student did the final process of "lifting the two flaps of the paper to be shapped like the letter T". Once the students were done with making the booklet, we had one student who represented the "mail man" who collected the good and was performing a service by then delivering the booklets to the store manager who also performed a service by giving the booklets to the students. To close up the lesson, and for a final assessment prior to the post test, we had the students write down what they learned in the booklets and draw pictures along with what they learned. We had them use the first page for what they learned about producers, the second page about what they learned about consumers, the third page about what they learned about goods, and the fourth page about what they learned about services. Overall, I thought that the groups worked well together and that the lesson tied togehter nicely. This was a good cooperative lesson plan for the students because they got to do the activity in a group setting, learning from themselves, as well as one another.
