Recommended: The importance of student engagement

A. What happened during my lesson (what did the students and I say and do)? How effective was my lesson design and teaching?
During my lesson I introduced the story, did the figure play, and read the story. In the beginning of the lesson I showed items to the students that where in the story. Then I did the figure play song one time with the students. Some of the students stood still during the song and some interacted to the song. After the figure play was over I read the story. Throughout the story I had the students use a felt board to have them interact throughout the story. My lesson was effective by the students understood and used the vocabulary throughout the day.
B. What evidence can I show about my students’ learning (e.g. student work)? How effective was my assessment plan for getting information about my students’ learning?
The evidence to show that the students were learning was through the interaction of the felt board and as a class in a whole they were able to say the sequence order of the story. The assessment was effective for get my information from my students b...

    During the lesson the teacher is allowing the students to discuss and think about what is occurring in the story. The teacher is implementing this by allowing and allocating time for debriefing in between the story. By doing thing the teacher gives the students the opportunity to use their KWL Charts throughout the lesson just in case something has been answered, or if a new idea were to appear. Moreover the students are also allowed to use their writing journal for note taking during this story. This allows the students to go back in their journals to recall events and important

    Throughout this learning segment students will take part in various informal assessments that will help me monitor children’s progress. For example, for Learning Experience 1 students will be asked to look at artifacts and be asked to use their prior knowledge to think about what they represent. Then they will be read the book I am Jackie Robinson and asked to take part in a class discussion connecting the artifacts to Jackie Robinson and how it relates to their previous language arts story Luke Goes to Bat. Thus, these probes will serve as pre assessments. Students will also complete worksheets that require them to cut and paste the given objects or phrases and glue them in the correct chronological order. These worksheets will serve as formative

    For reading intervention, we did a color scavenger hunt. I had their color sight words on index cards, and they were to find something in the classroom that matched the color they read. For reading centers, we read the emergent readers. This is a book full of arctic animals, and HOT questions. After we read the story we did a different yoga pose for each animal. For ELA whole group, we read the story “Three Cheers For Tacky.” After reading the story, we filled out a story map. They had to recall information from the story to fill in thud map.

    I chose the Gingerbread Phonics lesson to integrate with art. Gingerbread Phonics begins with the teacher introducing the text, The Gingerbread Man, and reading the story aloud to the class. The teacher should encourage students to read along as well, which may be easy for many students who are familiar with the story. On the second day of the phonics lesson, the teacher should have the sentences from the text displayed on a board somewhere students can easily view. The teacher should point to each word as he or she reads it, and encourage students to read the words with him or her.

  • Essential Literacy Strategies

    1875 Words  | 4 Pages

    At one point, for instance 4 minutes 3 seconds into clip 1, the class was getting a bit noisy and I tried to talk over them. Instead, I should have tried a method the teacher uses, such as clapping or closing the lights. It is important to never try to talk over the class or compete with them. At 2 minutes and 38 seconds in clip 2, I began to distribute the graphic organizers and send the students back to their groups to work with their partner. At this point, I noticed I was a bit unorganized and this could have gone smoother. When I was distributing the papers the class was getting chatty and impatient. For future lessons, I plan to do this differently. Perhaps, I could have a paper monitor hand out the papers or could have the students line up and take one. I will also work on giving perfectly clear directions to ensure all of my students are on task and understand. Next time, I will ask a student to repeat my instructions after I have given them to ensure they were listening and are ready to move on. For example, in clip 1 at 2 minutes and 19 seconds, I asked, “Did everyone hear what he read for us?” Next time, I will ask a student to repeat what was actually said. Another thing I would do is work a little bit more with the weekend motivation I began my lesson with. After I retold the class my weekend, I could have worked a little bit more with that example at about 40 seconds into clip 1. Next time, I will ask the class to turn and talk quickly to their partner and retell them their own weekends in order using details. This gives the students a chance to interact with their peers while retelling and personalizing the information. Also, I would enforce sequencing vocabulary a bit more in the responses on the graphic organizer. The organizer was broken up into columns labeled beginning, middle, and end. In the columns I feel it would be better if there was more

    While being verbal they also wrote everything that was said on the board. So there also was some visual which helped kids when filling out their chart. It is always important to include different learning styles because everyone is different. Seeing how to do so was very helpful in how I will do so in my class. The room was set up nicely there were posters on the wall that were informational. All of the desks were turned towards the front of the classrooms that all students were able to see the board. I got so many ideas in my head now for setting up my class. In all the room gave off a home type of feel to ensure students were comfortable. The students knew the expectations of them in the classroom. As soon as they entered the class they got situated in their seats and put away their phones. This action shows that the teachers established rules ahead of time. If rules are present the class is sure to run smooth so I’m sure to set rules the first day. While one teacher taught the other walked around and answered questions. While answering questions she also passed out coins that students collect to get extra points. Both teachers had the same role and they worked together to accomplish a goal. This showed me exactly how important it is to work together as a

  • Picture Story Analysis

    To make the activity of Picture Stories successful for beginner learners I can consider each of the three principles. In terms of providing something to talk about, this lesson can be adapted to give students a guidline of what to talk about by asking specific questions to help students formulate a story. Such a question could be, “choose one person in the picture, where do you think they are going?”, or “what do you think those people are talking about?”, or “what city do you think this is.” These types of questions can help initiate the creation of a story. Second, students can easily be put into groups or pairs depending on their personality types. If students are into pairs the teacher could utilize the inside outside circle with a

  • Reflection On What Went Well

    After doing the lesson, I felt that many things went well. According to the class evaluations and observation, the class really enjoyed the 4 different explore sound stations. The stations allowed for self-discovery, but were also structured enough for the teacher to have control. Classmates also liked the pictures that went along with the vocabulary terms. I think we did well with monitoring the students. We made sure the students were ready to continue to the next thing by having them give us “a thumbs up/ thumps down”. Lastly, I thought we did a great job at starting the lesson off strong with an engaging activity with the various sounds played from a cellphone app. It caught their attention and got them curious as to what

    Classroom assessments can do more than measure learning. How educators access and communicate the results send a clear message to students about what is worth learning, how we expect them to perform as well as how it should be learned. Linking instruction and assessment is critical to effective learning. Educators should provide students with various options for learning that include: different ways to learning (style and time), di...

  • Assessment Reflection

    969 Words  | 2 Pages

    As I reflect on my past assessment process, I realized how much my assessments have changed over the years. In my early years, I used tests for informational recall as my assessments. I felt these were appropriate guidelines in which I needed to follow in order to substantiate a student’s grade. Every assignment or tests was given a point value and then based on the amount of points, a grade was given. Every student’s assessment was exactly the same, and the assessments did not contain any subjectivity. I felt confident in giving the grade based on a valid point system. However reflecting back, I see that I did not include any performance-based assessments or individual learning styles in my early assessment. I also did not take into consideration the individual needs of my students. My assessment approach was awful. I am embarrassed that I use to assess students in this manner.
