Ok this one kind of lost me from the beginning. The teacher in this one is basically
wanting the 4th grade kids to act like adults by trying to look at each other’s body language
before they speak, and the teacher refused to call on anybody that raised their hand. I don’t feel
this is a correct way to run an elementary class. All the students know at this age is to raise their
hand to answer a question and the teacher is basically saying that that is the incorrect way to do
that. These students are too young to know what body language is. In my opinion this teacher is
trying too hard for the little minds. Wanting them to compose an essay? Again, these are 4th
graders do they even know what an essay is, and can they even write a paragraph? I just think
the teacher is pushing these student’s way too hard.

In the first part of this video the teacher in this was from another video that I felt he was
doing a teacher first approach to the lesson. This time I felt as if he mixed the teacher first
approach and the student first approach. He did is original style of laying out the problem but
instead of telling the problem and having the student solve it he allowed the student to give him
the problem and the solution. Also, instead of just talking the lesson out like the last time, this
time he used objects. These objects were called algebra block. I have personally never heard of
these things but at one time it looks like they were a thing. I enjoyed this style of teaching a little.
Because instead of just saying this is the problem give me the answer, it seemed more like he
spoke the problem and wanted the class to repeat it back to him and them solve the problem as
well.

The second teacher in this video was in international teacher, which tells me she has
multiple way of teaching a lesson to where all walks of life can understand it. She had done her
lesson on probability. She had the students roll a pair of dice for a period of time. Each student
had a various pair of numbers, and every time they rolled that number, they had to put a mark
next to that specific number. Then after that was over the teacher put different probabilities on
the board and she wanted the students to create equations out of the numbers they were
presented. They were given an allotted amount of time and they were on it too. It did not take
them long at all. At the end of the lesson she told the students to take five minutes and right
down everything they had learned in her class.

Both teachers had their own style of teaching the lesson. The first used the method of
trying to install a pool in her back yard and chose to have her students help with deciding how
many tiles she would need to put around the boarder of the pool. I feel this lesson was 100%
centered around the student and use taught this in a way that it seemed the students were
getting knowledge from the teacher on how to solve the problem and the students was getting to
help their teacher decided how many tiles were going to be needed to be put around the pool. In
using this style, she chose she was also able to incorporate her lesson in this as well with was
the goal. She gave each student an opportunity to show how they got to the answer they got to.
Instead of the teacher saying whether it was right or wrong she allowed the students to correct
each other. That is more like how I intend on running my classroom. I’ll have the lesson
prepared, I’ll give an outline on what the lesson is to be and then I’d let the students loose to
make it look like they are the ones teaching me but do it in a way that they will benefit and
receive the knowledge.

The second teacher did a lot of the same thing, but in her lesson, she used cups and
plastic chips. While having the cup right side up representing a positive number and having the
cup upside down representing a negative number. Same with the plastic chips. One color
representing a positive number and the other color representing a negative number. Then like
the first teacher she had each student show her how they got the right answer. If the answer
was wrong, instead of the teacher correcting the student she allowed the class to correct the
student.

Both teachers had their own ways of getting the lesson out there. But both ways were
pretty similar. By doing the lessons in the way both teachers did them the students teach each
other in a way but the teacher is still there to shadow and correct them if need be.

This video is pretty interesting before class starts the teacher goes around and gather an
assessment of what level her students are reading at. Then she follows up with them on what
they think about the book they just tried to read. From there she’ll ask them whether or not they
liked the book or not. After she gathers the data, she need she will go back and hit on specific
things for certain students. But also, she takes the data and creates her lesson around the data
she has gathered. This seems like a process, but it seems to work for this teacher so more
power do whatever works best in your classroom.

In this video the teacher begins by have the students follow along with her as she reads.
This is an interesting video because the teacher is bilingual which means she can speak both
English and Spanish very well. So, for some of the students in her class she has to speak
Spanish to them because they don’t really know English as well as the rest of the students. As
she goes in her lesson she falls back on the control and lets the students slowly take of the
rains as she slowly becomes the observer. Which that is how I want to do my class. Start off
with the control and then slowly back off and let the students slowly teach themselves but be
there in case they get stumped and really need help.

In this video the teacher lets the students have a sense of control from the very
beginning of the class. Two students are chosen every morning to lead small groups around the
classroom and into the hallway to discuss the question of the day. Which in this case it was
have you ever eaten a rice cake? A lot of them had said no they have never eaten a rice cake.
Most of the students in the class are Chinese so the teacher has a Chinese interpreter come
into the classroom and describe what she is talking about to the students that are not
understanding what is going on. Later on in the lesson the students have a sheet of pictures
with lines underneath them so the student can write what the picture is and the student can also
color the picture in. this to me is a very hands on class and I really like these types of classes.

This video was very unique. Out of all the videos I feel this on is the most unique. She
was going through the alphabet with the students and also using the sounds they make and
also teaching them sign language along with each letter. I thought that was pretty cool. After
that warmup she took a select few students to another table and had them do a warmup read to
wake their brains up as she put it. Then later on she would have a premade universal sentence
and have them fill in the blanks with how they feel it should be finished. Then later she had a big
apple word bank that she had filled with words and have the students find different words in the
apple. This was a very student-based class and I enjoyed watching the video on this one.

This was a really cool lesson very student interactive. The students did all the work and
the teacher just talked the students through on how to do it. The teacher had this thing called
the makey makey box and it had some electrical stuff in it. Nothing dangerous but it was pretty
cool have the teacher explained how to use it. The teacher was very calm and very instructive
on how the experiment was to be done. All the students followed through exactly with how the
teacher wanted it done and in doing so they all got the result they wanted to get which was
piano sounds which I thought was pretty cool. Then at the end the teacher called upon a student
to give a scientific answer on how it all happened, and he did in very impressive fashion to the
teachers liking.

In this video the teacher started out by doing a quick view on the smart board. It was six
sets of three dots. It was show three times to the class and each student had to write down what
they saw. After that, a few students were selected to draw on the smart board exactly how they
saw the pattern. The students were surprised as to how many ways the different students saw
the same picture on the board. But what was cool is that they all came out to be the same
answer. Then the teacher used that to get into the lesson for the day which was multiplicative
comparison. Then she had the students think about what that meant in their groups then they
started working problems on the board to show what they know.

This teacher does an amazing job with the class. The students are fully engaged from
the very beginning. The question for the lesson was is the world the same today as it was long
ago. The students agreed that no it is not the same, so they were asked to think of some ways
that it has changed. Then once they did that they started on their story. They go to sit on the
floor in the front of the classroom with the teacher and they all discuss what all has changed and
what all they are going to put into their story. They ended up with a great little story as well with
all their idea all in it.

This video focused around the different types of writing there are in the world. Both teachers
had the students list off the multiple types of writing that authors put out. The students pointed
out everything from picture books all the way to big novels. Then once they were done listing
off, they went around the room writing down what kind of writing each student was going to do.
One student chose a reflection then the teacher had asked why. The student really couldn’t give
and explanation so the teacher told her how she could go do it. Every student chose a way they
wanted to write then they were dismissed to go write what they wanted to.

In this video both instructors give the students examples to read from first to see if they
can figure out the purpose and what the writer is trying to say to their audience. The instructors
go and call on a few people and are very impressed by the answers they are given. Then one the
instructors feel that the students have a good grasp of the concept then they are free to write a
short passage. I’m liking the elementary and early childhood videos. Maybe because I’m sort of
a child at heart myself. But I have noticed that the instructors will not continue on with the lesson
until they are sure that the student has a very good understanding of what is being asked of them.

This one was pretty cool. The teacher wanted to focus on how the students hear sound
and by doing that the students created eardrums out of a red cup and foil. Which I thought was
interesting and they tested the different sounds by using a pencil. The main goal here was to have
the students understand how they hear sound. By the end of the lesson the teacher could tell that
the students understood very well on how they hear sound and she could tell that they were ready
to move on to the next lesson.

In the first lesson the teacher was more focused on the task at hand which was getting the
lesson to the students. This class too me seemed like it was an AP class. He only had a few
students in there. He focused on getting the students to tell him just the answer after he gave
them the problem. He did not seem too worried about letting the students try and figure out the
problem and the solution. He was more worried about the student giving him the answer after
he very quickly gave the problem. Also, he was only allotting about 30 seconds between each
transition period for the students to find the answer. I just do not feel that was enough time for
everybody to get the answer for the problem. But in this video, it most certainly was plenty of
time.

The second part of the video was back with the first teacher from the first video in the list. I
like her style of teaching. She presented the problem and as in the first one she allowed the
student to basically tell her how the problem should be presented and solved. Basically, in her
class she is just there to make sure they stay on track with the material presented. She just puts
herself in the observers set as she has given the outline of the lesson and lets the students
loose on the lesson and teaches their self and if they get stuck she is there to help them out of a
tough spot. I feel this is the best way to teach any student at any level. Be there to help the
student. But give the student the opportunity to present the problem and the solution and don’t
give them just a few seconds but give them time to work through it.

In this video the teacher has his desks in the form of a circle and give and open discussion
question of who should and should not be let in the government office. The students have some
real good points on the issue. One of the students gave her answer and then gave her
reasoning as to why she gave the answer she did. Then another gave their answer and it went
against the previous student and then they explained why they felt the way they did about why
they went against the previous students answer. I feel this is a good way to have a lesson
because the students will retain for knowledge about what they are discussing if they feel they
have control over it.

The first lesson in this video was pretty cool I thought. The teacher had the class work
together in groups to determine where certain places were on the globe. She introduced the
lesson by saying I know where this such country is and then she said is that called sharing.
Then the class responded no. After that she assigned what she wanted the class to do. She
wanted the class to work together and share their information as they found certain place on the
globe and that places relation to other countries around it. I feel they were very engaged with
the assignment and enjoyed it very well.

The second teacher had the same concept but this teacher also added that they wanted the
students to work together in their groups but also to help another group out by making a deal
with them if a group got low on money and need a loan. This activity was also very engaging
and again if the students got stumped the teacher was there to answer any questions that the
student had for them to answer. The teacher threw a curve in the assignment and decided they
needed to raise the price on a specific item. Then the assignment got a bit more interesting
because the student started to have to negotiate with other groups to get the money to buy the
lumber that they needed.

This video was interesting and different all at the same time. This was a class about
multicultural people. Basically, her class is full of middle school students and her lesson was to
have the get into groups. While they were in groups, she had the students talk to each other
about where they come from and who their ancestors are. I really liked how she basically had
the kids talk about where they are from. The class also learned that one of the student’s
grandparents was one of the first Black people to go to school and be in the same class as the
White person. This video had two teachers, both had the same lesson mostly, but they were
taught in different ways. This too me seemed like it was because both teachers had their very
own ways on how to integrate all their student’s different cultures into their class and lessons.
All in all, I feel both had great approaches to the styles of teaching for both of their classrooms
and how to teach their students.

In this video they were focused more one how the student is feeling. Multiple students in the
video were not have a good day so the teacher came too them and was focused on what made
them feel the way they are and what they can do to turn it around or fix it. The video cut to
multiple segments throughout and each time something had happened to where the student
was having an issue with another student. Each time they talk to the student with the problem
they ended up being able to fix the issue very quickly. The bases of this video were basically
centered around making sure the students were in a good place mentally so that the teacher
can get to the lesson and be able to teach it without any bad interruptions.

This was in interesting video. The teacher started the class by saying she has these bags of
M&M’s and she wants to share them with the class, but she did not know how. She then asked
the class how they would do it. Then a student answered and said by giving them out 2 at a
time. The teacher asked why she should do it that way and another student replied because
passing them out one at a time would take a long time and the teacher said that is exactly right.
Then the teacher turned to the lesson and had the students figure out the lesson with blocks.
The lesson was that they have 36 students and they need to divide them up to have 8 students
per bus. They ended up with an answer of 4.5. they can’t have 4.5 buses, so they had to put a
few students in a 5th bus. So, at the end of the lesson she had them write down what they had
learned and how they can apply it to real life.

This was a very good video observation. I like how the teacher had the classroom seated in
a circle and allowed everyone express what their thoughts and views are on America. I also
liked how he would allow a student to talk and if a student tried to interrupt, he would stop them
and tell them you’ll have you turn to speak in just a moment. It is very important that in the
classroom you give everybody the opportunity to speak if they so choose to do so. During this
teacher’s activity he sort of let the floor a little lose for the students. But he also had control.
Because the moment he seen it starting to get a little wild he calmed it back down extremely
quick. Which tells me he knows how to control the classroom and he also has the respect of his
students. If he had none of that it would have spiraled out of control very fast and there would
have almost been no way to rope them back in.

This teacher like many of the others I have watched gave the floor to the students. She Sate
in for a brief period on each group and gave each a verbal template of questions to get them to
open up and to get them to talk. It worked very well, because it got the student to be more
interactive with each other as if they have known each other for quite some time. The
assignment was interesting as it involved each group using brown bags. One person from each
group took lead and taught the lesson as best they could and got instruction from the teacher as
needed. The lesson helped the students to get to know one another and for them to not be so
shy. For them to understand what is going on around them and to use their mind and think
about everything they do.

It seems to me in this video the teacher was focused more on getting through the lesson
more than stopping to make sure the students have a grasp on what he wants them to know. He
first introduced the standard quadratic formula then he introduced the different types of forms
the formula can be written in. I believe there were four different types that he had wrote down.
He then proceeded on to say that they were going to focus on the four way he wrote it which to
me seemed a little strange. Once he explained it and was writing the steps as he was explaining
it the students seemed lost or like they really did not care about what was going on. Almost like
they just wanted the class to end. Once he finished writing and talking through the steps, he
then let them lose and had them go to their group stations and work the problem out
themselves. He did go by desk by desk to check. He ended up having to stop at each desk for a
good period of time because there was a few students that did not understand the concept of
what was going on cause he basically just ran through the steps and said ok go to you stations
and work. This was a teacher focused lesson if I ever saw one.

In this video it was more anchored around interviewing the students on their views of writing.
All had their own reasons whether it was something at home or whether it was nothing but
fiction. Some even wrote about a family vacation they had. It seemed as though he had a lot of
fun on the trip. One girl said she enjoys writing fiction papers mainly because she can make it
up as she goes along. Which that is the beauty of writing fiction pieces. There really doesn’t
have to be a reason for it you can just write until you can’t think of anything else to add.

The first teacher in this video made her lesson a little more hardcore than she did in the first
video that she was in. But she kept it centered around a student first style of teaching. I just feel
so strongly that you should have a student first approach to any lesson that you teach. She
again gave a brief outline of what she expected from the students. Then she pretty much let the
students teach the lesson themselves and let them figure out the problem and solutions to the
problem. There was a spot or two that the students got hung up on but instead of stopping the
lesson dead in its tracks the teacher took note of it and addressed the issue later in the class.
Which is also especially important. Do not derail the assignment just because one part is wrong.
Address the issue later after all people have gone if the problem continues.

The second teacher was Hispanic. I thought this was interesting because she spoke great
English, but she also was bilingual. She spoke English through the lesson and asked questions
in Spanish during the lesson. Her students were having trouble with something called feasible
space. I believe that is what they called it. But instead of saying hold up that is not right she
chose to wait and address that issue later because all her students ended up having the same
issue. So, she ended up making an entirely new small lesson just on that closer to the end of
the period.

This was a good one. Both teachers focused their lessons on writing a story, but each had
their own way of writing that story. One chose to wright it in an essay format and the other
chose to write it in a poem format. The teacher that chose the essay format presented her
brainstorm in a web format presentation. While the second chose to have her kind of all over the
page. But both ended up with their thoughts very organized. Once they showed the students
what they did as an example the students were allowed to go on their own and write for a little
while. I fell both had good approaches on how to attack the writing part of literacy class. Both
seem very effective.

This video really isn’t based on any certain subject it is just focusing on one individual
student. It’s focusing on the age of the student about how close her birthday is to the deadline
for when or if she has to be held back because of where hear birthday is. According to the
description her birthday is on August 5. With is pretty close to that cut off. My is the 16th of
August so I had to wait a year before I could start school. So, I was already a year behind. But
this girl not only was eligible to start school, but she was blowing minds and blowing people out
of the water for how smart she was. This girl is brilliant for her age.

In this video the teacher is teaching kindergarten but there is a catch. None of the students
in his class are originally from the United States. They are mostly from China, Japan, and
Korea. Coming from these Places none of the students know hardly any English at all and it is
part of the teacher’s job to make sure that the students get that part of their education in at that
stage of their life. After he read the book about thanksgiving, he had each of the students write
in a journal about what being thankful means to them. The one of his students was have a bit of
trouble then she was able to figure it out on her own. The teacher was very impressed by this
little girl’s ability to correct her own mistake.
