my students as a group a lot more and give them broader opportunities to help each other find their own answers to questions that could potentially increase their confidence level and comprehension level by exploring and researching for clues and answers to things.

they accurate and her response was that most of the time they are readable and you can interpret what he means after answering a question, but he has a hard time comprehending instructions and information. I have noticed that he would only complete my assignments half-way when I gave them during my lessons, but the parts he would complete were done mostly correctly, just very sloppy. He never answered questions when asked during an interactive read-aloud and when he is called on randomly, he does the shrugging shoulders motion like he does not know. I personally think he just has difficulty paying attention because he seems to venture off into his own thinking and his own world during lessons. C.) Identify and describe the student that was about average in performance. Provide two possible reasons for this success. Consider your objectives, instruction, and assessment along with student characteristics and other contextual factors under your control. Discuss what you could do differently or better in the future to improve your students performance. Evelyn is a smart child but having her first language being Spanish did not help her much in class. She went to speech every day during our Reading and Writing time. Evelyn would not talk in class whether it is to another peer, to the teacher, or to me. She would only nod her head and that was it. I feel like this stumped her learning because if she had a question about something, she would not ask questions. Instead she just continued throughout the day with unanswered questions and confusion in different areas. I feel as though if she would have been more opened and talked to us then she would have performed very well in class and on assignments because she seemed to be very intelligent. She could talk English but just choose not to speak at school at all. I do know that the speech teacher had her talking and reading in her sessions with her but she would not speak in class.

would have their ideas and concepts that were taken in on paper! This helped me better assess my students at the end of the lesson. Based upon student performance, discuss the instructional decisions for the next or future lesson. For the next lesson I would try to make the activity more extensive. Maybe have some higher order thinking questions for them to answer along with talking about the facts they took from it. Instead of doing an individual region, I might focus on all of the regions and let them focus in on their favorite region. Other questions to consider in your reflection: How did you engage or motivate the students successfully? For this lesson I motivated the students by taking objects from the Coastal Zone in a bag that was called the secret bag and they only got to see what was inside after they completed their sheets and if they listened carefully. What instructional mode(s) was employed? (lecture, small group, demonstration, experiment, etc.) I taught the lesson as whole group and they completed their sheets as individuals. How effectively did you use instructional aids, i.e., whiteboard, video, calculators, manipulatives, computer, etc.? For this lesson, I did not use technology because I did a read aloud with them along with looking at real life objects so we focused on hands on activity rather than using the smart board. Were the students actively or passively involved? How so? I feel like the students were actively involved during the lesson by getting to hold the items and handle them to explore the Coastal Zone. They were allowed to use their sense to identify the objects and to look at them up close. Did you present the information in a clear and logical manner? How so? I feel as if I did present the material in a clear and logical manner because after post assessing my students, I feel that they all took something form the lesson and I had tons of facts on the back of their papers! How effective were the materials and resources you selected for the lesson? The resources and materials I used were effective throughout my lesson. Were you able to or could you (in the future) relate the lesson content to the lives of the student. I was able to connect the lesson to my students lives by relating the objects to things they may have seen at the beach or on trips. Describe any discipline or classroom management techniques used during the lesson. Were these techniques effective or would you employ a different technique the next time? If a child was not doing what he or she was supposed to be doing I would point out the positive things I would see from students around them and they would

correct their behavior quickly to be able to get praised as well. This worked throughout the lessons when a child was misbehaving. Reflect on your interaction with the students. Would you describe your treatment of the students as being fair, respectful, and ethical? How so? I do feel as though the way I treated my students during this lesson was fair and respectful. I always set my rules at the beginning of my lesson before starting anything and I think by doing that I get the respect I want and they will receive that in return from me as well. This lesson really showed that and they are a great group that really pays attention in all lessons given. Were you able to summarize the lesson and relate it to the following lesson or homework assignment? The lesson was an easy summarize. At the end we called out some facts that they learned and we made a booklet to keep in their classroom out of their illustrations and facts they wrote down. Was your estimated time allocation for this lesson as noted in your lesson plan accurate? If your time varied, what factors contributed to this variance? My time allocated for the lesson was accurate. My teacher gave me about forty-five minutes and it took right around that long.

How effectively did you use instructional aids, i.e., whiteboard, video, calculators, manipulatives, computer, etc.? We used the smart board to post our facts about the animals and their habitats after the reading. I also used the smart board to write any words they needed help spelling on there so they would know how to correctly spell it. Were the students actively or passively involved? How so? The students were engaged and involved during the entire lesson. They were able to talk while working which kept them involved because they were so into showing and helping each other with their animals. Did you present the information in a clear and logical manner? How so? Based off of what I got through completing my post assessment I do feel as though I was able to present my information clear and logical. How effective were the materials and resources you selected for the lesson? The resources and materials I used were effective throughout my lesson. Were you able to or could you (in the future) relate the lesson content to the lives of the student. I am sure I could relate this lesson to the students lives by asking them about their habitats and seeing what they need to survive and then we could relate it to our individual animals and compare our selves to see which one we matched up with the best. Describe any discipline or classroom management techniques used during the lesson. Were these techniques effective or would you employ a different technique the next time? If a child was not doing what he or she was supposed to be doing I would point out the positive things I would see from students around them and they would correct their behavior quickly to be able to get praised as well.

Were you able to summarize the lesson and relate it to the following lesson or homework assignment? I was able to follow up and summarize this lesson by reminding them that what they did with their pumpkins were theirs to take home and they could add more to it after getting home if they would have liked to. We learned about sequencing and the next class they had the next time I was in the room, they had to sequence the events in the new book they were reading and we reminded them of how this lesson helped them learn how to do that. Was your estimated time allocation for this lesson as noted in your lesson plan accurate? If your time varied, what factors contributed to this variance? My time allocated for the lesson was accurate. My teacher gave me about thirty minutes and it took right around that long.

came to using technology in this lesson. I worked at a small table with students group by group and we never once went over to a computer or technology. Were the students actively or passively involved? How so? The students were actively engaged and involved during the lesson by being able to actively participate using their manipulatives. Did you present the information in a clear and logical manner? How so? I felt as though I presented myself and lesson in a clear and logical way because the students had a fun time and learned the combinations way of multiplying quickly. How effective were the materials and resources you selected for the lesson? The resources and materials I used were effective throughout my lesson. Were you able to or could you (in the future) relate the lesson content to the lives of the student. I related this activity to their real life situations by allowing them to make outfits like they would do when picking out their own outfits for school.

text, they will be able to pick up a magazine or non-fiction book and can know where in that book to go for their answers.

them once I go to write them on anchor charts. I think one of my biggest fears is to be at the front of the room writing something on the board and not know how to spell it or forget how in front of my class. I plan on making sure I am extra prepared when it comes to writing anchor charts or information on the board and familiarize myself with the vocabulary in whatever lesson I am teaching. I can also have a small dictionary beside my board just in case I have a word I need to look up.
