Placing the students in smaller groups allowed me to split my time among groups, without having to answer every question, because the group relied on help from their peers. This allowed me to spend a little more time with students who may have been struggling due to a language barrier or learning disability. I felt that it would be a good idea to show them the beginning and ending cards in one sentence, and show them where to place it on the paper based on the corresponding images. The lesson was also designed to pace the students in a way that was not too frenzied, after all, having a new teacher for the day was enough excitement already. Students would be active in putting together sentences, and then they would naturally slow down to write their sentences, especially after being told that they would be put on display in the hallway, and then would be active again going into the section station in the rotation of six different sentences. Assessment wise, students will have summative assessments based on proper capitalization and punctuation of sentences, how they work together in a group (participation), and proper placement of sentences on worksheet, in correlation with corresponding images. Formative assessments include questioning, observations, and discussions among the whole class and individual
