 AAWC Lesson Reflection (Completed after EVERY lesson taught)
English lesson Grade 1-A (listen to and manipulate beginning and
ending phonemes in words).
Select (S):

Identify a lesson and what standards are you addressing

The lesson was about listen to and manipulates beginning and ending phonemes in words. I used
Pre-listening for students by I show them box and inside the box some objects and I show them
different objects with the sound and beginning and ending in words. For example, I show them ball
and I sounding out the letter ‘b’ and I said for them the words like ball and web. Also students will
able to hear the letters sound with words. Although, students able to read the words with beginning
and ending. And students able to match the letters with beginning and ending in words.

Describe (D):

Who is the lesson for? The lesson for grade 1 boys, it was 19 students.

Where did the lesson take place?

It was in the English Math’s science classroom. In addition, when I start the lesson I let students
sit on the carpet to explain and play the game then for the activity they should be in their groups
its depend on their level after that in closing they sit in the carpet and I give them exit ticket
paper and I say for them different letter sounds with word and they should to circle a bout what
they hear.

What were you trying to achieve in your lesson?

I try to achieve the time management during the introduction and group activity to organize my
lesson by using timer and bell.

What did the students do?

They are focused when I show them letters card also when I show them in the basket different
objects for each letters they were encouraged and they hear different letters sound with picture
and words. And they were enthusiastic when they play game and the activities. I fell students
are more excited when they hear the sound and when they see the objects and when they start
playing a game.
Analyze (A):

Why do you think the students responded the way that they did?

I feel students respond the lesson because they answer me back and they were known the
sounds and some words. I found the high level students are know some words when I ask them.
I believe, learners are engage because they like to be the lesson more activities and the activities
increase their motivation. According to Larry, “We need to provide our students with activities
that are innovative and challenging as well as purposeful if we want them to be engaged in
learning” [ CITATION Fer14 \l 1033 ].

How well did your teaching relate to the students’ prior understanding?

This lesson relate to the students when they were in KG English lesson. I connected this lesson
by using letters sound with pictures to understand more. I found that was affective because
students were able to know sounding out each letters but first they listening to me then they
able to sound out and they were able to do their activities. This supports the thoughts of Jim “ It
is well known that students build on what they already know and have come to understand
through formal and informal experiences”[ CITATION Gee12 \l 1033 ]. In addition, it’s
important to teach them to assess their prior knowledge and skills to improve their skills and
help students build new knowledge.

How well did you engage the students?

The students were engage when they play game and do their center activity. I believe all
students felt like they could sounding out the letters and they could read the words which have
beginning and ending phonemes in words by doing the game and the activities. In addition, learners
were engage when I show them different objects that help them know the letters, words and
pictures. Although, I differentiated the activities for students to let them engage and I see their able
to do their task by showing me their works and I check. According to Larry “Make it easy for students
to be aware of how well they are doing, and you will make it easy for them to stay engaged in a
learning activity” [ CITATION Fer141 \l 1033 ].
Appraise (A):

Explain the nature of the experience from the students’ perspective

Did your lesson meet your teaching goals?

The lesson connected when they was on KG. I teach them the main things in different way
for example, I use pictures, objects, game and magnetic letters also I ask them questions
that related in the pictures to describe from picture what the letter is. Although, during
activities for the high group they were engage to find the letters, pictures and words, for
middle and low I helped them by showing them example and I translate for them. I found
that activities appropriate for each level because I make a search to know new ideas of
activities and My MCT and MST helped me by giving me what I need to make for each level,
although I had to support the low level students by helping them. Next time I will trying to
make for them a activities that have challenge to give them opportunity to learn and improve
their skills.

Transform (T):

How might you enhance student learning of this lesson in the future?

For my future practice, I will look for opportunities to learn the sound of letters with words by
using different games and have hand on activities to build their knowledge. Also, I will display
each level activity in the board to make sure students are understood what they should to do.
And next time I will manage them by pot timer to make the centers all finish on time and after
that they explain and show us what they do. This will help learners practice and develop their
knowledge.

What are the implications for your professional practice?

After the lesson I used exit ticket by give each student paper and they have a questions they
should to hear what the letters sound with word I tolled them and they should to circle. For my
next practice I will use more formative assessment to increase their skills and to make sure they
understanding.

This is my materials and the activities for the level that I used in English lesson.
