My reflection of the lesson wasnt so bad. It went has plans but at times Raymond and I had to stick a few free handed things; and that is normal because not every single detail will be mentioned in the Lesson Plan. This just really as me excited for the actual real deal!
We got together a few times and prepared by getting everything math related together and choosing what we could really lay out for the class in general to learn But as time came close and after seeing a few lessons we decided to change a couple of things the night before. We also learned that as well is normal because you can sleep and wake up with a totally new idea(s).
For the behavior plan we specifically mentioned basics such as no calling out, raise your hand, stay in seat, etc. It worked due to the class being more cooperative then expected. We didnt have every behavior but went with the flow calmly when they (the behavior) showed in the class.
Objective was Students will be able to complete the order of operations (in Algebra). Explains itself, right? Assessments were, classwork, looking while they do worksheets, mini quiz, and homework that will be graded.
As i mentioned a bit before, the lesson plan was closely executed exactly as written. Sometimes it may not go as planned at all; but thats when Plan B could come into place. The most important thing i tried to teach the student was that it takes practice to succeed at anything even if your gifted and talented. Which is why we did so many problems, to practice.
What Professor Luongo taught me which was very important, is that reading the directions is a big deal, especially for the readers and can improve the skills of the non-readers. (Thank You!) It went well, i think because the "students" were able to recall what they have done in the past and be were able to slowly but surely complete the work correctly.
I learned from the students that being thorough is very essential. From a teachers point of view, i already understand the material, but from their point of view they are learning and i have to keep that in mind. If we had more time, something i would have done differently is have more students come up to do the problems. Its a different story when you work at the desk and the board.
The lesson could have been more effective by adding a game or two. I think i need to improve more in reading and speaking louder as a student mentioned in the reflection sheet thoroughly completing a Lesson Plan. Overall this was a great experience.
