English Instructional Plan – Applying Knowledge of Media Messages Grades 4-5
In this activity, students will interview a peer via video conferencing. Students will watch a brief Brainpop video on how to conduct an interview, review interview etiquette, and answer a questionnaire to better prepare themselves for the interview process.
Three days are recommended for the entire process. Day 1: Set up for the interview, Day 2: Group 1 interviews, Day 3: Group 2 interviews.
The class will be split into groups (Interviewer and Interviewee) or you can ask another class to participate with you - video "pen pals". The two groups will switch and play the reverse rolls.
In this activity/ lesson students will conduct research about a given or chosen profession, interview a professional in the field via video conferencing, and write a short article, essay, journal entry, or blog about their experience and the information they gathered.
