To demonstrate this I am going to put to signs up in the classroom “Love” and “Don’t Love” and I would explain to the class what each sign means. I am then going to get the students to play a game where I am going to name an object, person or a thing and if the students like it they will move to the “Love” side of the room, likewise if they don’t love it they will go to the other side. When students are in the love side of the room to check understanding I am going to ask them open questions to ensure that they understand the meaning of love. To end a lesson on love I would get the class to play a game where the first person says “ I love…” the second person would repeat what the first person has said and add their own “I love…” this would go on for the rest of the class with each student adding what they …show more content…

    Before this course, I did not know grammar well, and what I did know I did not fully understand. Yet, due to taking the course, I learned more about the structure of the English language, and can use grammar better than I did before. For instance, the first three major assignments were filled with missing comas, verb-tense misuses, and run-on sentences. Now, I may still make mistakes, but I know why I have made them. In other English courses, I had grammar homework and reading assignments that, often, seemed to be busy work, but with this course, I did not think that was the case.…

    Creating Engaging Lessons To create lessons that are engaging, educators can use “hooks” to grab the student’s attention and keep them highly engaged throughout the class period. “Hooks” need to be introduced at the beginning of the lesson so students will become sold on the material right away. If not, students will become bored and that’s when educators start having discipline and behavior problems. “Hooks” need to be strong and should explain “what students are about to learn, why what they are about to learn is important, and how the learning will take place (the day’s agenda)”…

    Assessing early literacy for English Language Learners is a way for teachers to make decisions in their instructions. Assessments help teachers know if the child is at risk for delays in literacy and learn about what children know and can do. When thinking of assessments, some teachers often use standards as guidelines. “Early childhood teachers often intertwine standards, instruction, and assessment. State literacy standards and assessment practices often help teachers pinpoint instructional decisions for students.”…

I never liked writing due to the fact that I always thought I was either behind on standard english writing habits or what I wrote was wrong in some sense. However, the more involved the class became the more I learned that I loved writing on any real topic. The assignments help me discover that I am not behind at all and that nothing that you write about is wrong in any sense. The class helped me over come writers block.…

In California, specifically Southern California, two of the most widely spoken languages are English and Spanish.

    • During the beginning of my lesson, with the entire class, I had the students help another student through a multiplication and division problem. When the students were helping another student, I asked the students prompting questions that allowed them to help that student effectively. For example, during the multiplication problem, I asked the students, “Is this answer complete?” to which a student responded with, “no.” When the student responded to this, I asked then the simple question of why they believed that. The reason that this why is so important is that it caused this student to explain to the class and me that the reason that the answer was not completed was because it was not simplified.…
