In today's age of information we must teach students how to know if the information they are finding is credible or not. So as a 45 minute lesson with my 5th grader, I have created this informative and hands-on lesson. After introducing the topic with the before question, we watched the youtube video, http://youtu.be/J_qR5lpnXBE, on evaluating websites. As they were listening they identified the meanings of the vocabulary and then had time to practice for themselves. The Before and During took about 10 minutes and then the rest of the period was finding a credible website. They had time to share and evaluate each other's evaluation skills!
