If I were to teach this lesson again, I would purchase more than one
fish to have the students split into groups. Overseeing the groups, I would
cut up one of the fish and allow for them to explore the internal parts of the
fish more thoroughly if they wanted to. I also would create a few different
types of worksheets for the students to complete, having them vary for the
more advanced students and those that may struggle. From teaching this
lesson, I learned that it is beneficial to incorporate lessons that are hands-on
for the students. Providing opportunities for them to make the connections
between the physical object and feeling and the word that corresponds.
