Mursion Reflection
SCED 499
In terms of this lesson, I’d say one of the only moments that went according completely
to plan was my assessment question at the end. The students gave me the answers that I was
hoping they would in relation to the question asked and materials covered. I think this was
because the question was very open ended and each student could give an answer that was
neither correct nor incorrect. In terms of what could’ve gone better, just the overall flow of class
and the interactions with the students. This includes speaking to the students in more positive,
encouraging tones and to be weary of instances where the students were not on task and thus not
learning. This can be achieved as simply as saying “a great response Ethan, I like that you used
details in your answer.” Finally, having a wider view of what is happening in the classroom in
Observers complimented my speaking voice, pacing and assessment. I take pride in the
effectively. Again, my assessment activity question was also praised which is, in part, due to its
open-endedness. If I was to do this lesson again, I would be wearier of what students are doing
while I’m an not looking. During my read aloud of the excerpt, students were off task and thus
not learning. Potentially next time, if possible, have the students read it via popcorn reading or
with a partner to minimize he chances of distractions taking place. The most obvious standards
seen in this small lesson are standards 1 and 2 focusing on learner development and differences.
Since this is not a group that we can develop real connection to, this is on the fly adaptation to
their differences and how they develop most efficiently as students. Each of these students learn
differently, some with collaboration, some with close reading, whatever method they prefer, it is
up to the instructor to learn and adapt to what the students find most comfortable for them.
