Field Experience Observation

Decent Essays
Following the first five days of field experience observations, the word that comes to mind is exhausted! I observed the instructor to always be constantly moving. I was shocked at how the educator always knew what was going on everywhere in the classroom. The statement having "eyes in the back of your head" was true. Teachers were getting their early, and staying late, and always seemed happy and ready to go the next day.

I had an idea on how Coach Palmer would teach all week. I knew he would try to connect with his students and their experiences. He was continually trying to connect what he is instructing to something genuine in their lives. Lesson and exercises are associated with what was going on with things around the student such as

    Richard & Lockhart (1994) point out that to distinguish a lesson from other speech events, the lesson should have a recognizable structure, which starts with an evident open activity that engages the students; it moves on a series of teaching and learning activities until it reaches a conclusion. Richard & Lockhart (1994) suggests that the teacher should do something to engage the students what was evidenced in the observed class. The Educator opened the lesson asking two questions in Spanish “¿a quién le gustan los animales?” and “¿quién tiene animales en la casa?” what allow the students to activate their prior knowledge regarding the animals.…

    Field Experience at Wildwood and Ernest Manning My cohort of ten was assigned to visit two schools over a two-week period with a full week dedicated to each location. The two schools were Wildwood elementary and Ernest Manning high school and while their relative closeness to one another would suggest that some Wildwood students may eventually be at Ernest Manning, they are opposites in terms of their status, how they carry themselves, and what they believe to be most important for students. Wildwood elementary is an old school as observed from its small and outdated architecture. Classes are small and at times claustrophobic, especially when packed with 20-25 of the nearly 600 students making it difficult if not impossible to navigate the…

    I like the way John structured his lesson because he was helping his students get their message down on paper. And that is one of the most important things. I also enjoyed how John was able to have all of the students listen to one another while they were sharing. Therefore, the purpose of his lesson was that he wanted his class to see the concept of listening, speaking, reading, and writing during a lesson. I believe that he was successful in doing these concepts in his…

    The field experience video that was my favorite was the Tim Bedley critical thinking videos. I really like this videos because the teacher keeps the students engaged and applies a problem based learning technique to help solve a problem that many the students have been struggling with. The problem that was at hand was the class was not reaching consensus on their work. To solve this problem, the teacher gets the students in a group and tells each group needs a table leader, time keeper, and somebody to record the information by writing the ideas down. The teacher then listens to the student’s responses and clarifies any misunderstandings.…

    Field Experience Working as a Para educator in the Mt. Pleasant School District had opened my understanding about how important it is the job of a teacher.

Before school even starts she is already coordinated with core class teachers what she need to work on every individual student under her care. First period in her class is Science.…
