Last semester when I taught my 5E lesson, everything that I planned I implemented in the classroom. For instance, I had students working with mirrors to explore the terms reflection and refraction. In addition, the students were able to explore with mirrors using flashlights and seeing what they were able to view using both. Then my students and I discussed the different things that they observed when exploring with the different manipulatives. Something that I modified in my lesson was the fact that I taught my lesson in Spanish as I later notice that two of my students did not knew any English. I taught my lesson in Spanish as I wanted all my students to fully understand my lesson. I feel that by doing so, I was able to teach my lesson to

The science teacher wanted me to focus my lesson on comparing and contrasting animal and plant life cycles. I modify some of the activities I created in my lesson to address the new objective I was given by the science teacher. For instance, during my explore portion of the lesson, I had students looked at a bean seed and dissect it completely so they can see the components of the plant. Then we discussed the different stages that the bean plant went through. When doing the activity, the bean seeds where not soaked enough, for the students to take the bean apart. I then decided to show the students a picture of what they were supposed to see. I Then the students reviewed what animal cycle is by ordering the stages of the animal cycle I gave them. Then during my explain portion of the class the students and I discussed the difference and similarities that were visible to them based on what the saw with the life cycle …show more content…
Sometimes one as teachers have to modify our lesson so students can fully understand the concept being taught. I also feel that when time is an issue I as the teacher have to modify and sometimes simplify the activities so all the things that need to be taught in one class can be taught. In addition, when delivering my lesson I learned that it is important to know all the concepts that we are teaching in order to not miss anything when teaching a lesson. Furthermost, I feel that sometimes I add so many concepts in the lesson that are hard for me to remember them all. When I do that, I come to think that if I had a hard time remembering all the concepts, then my students will have a hard learning about them. I analyzed my curriculum using the HISD scope and sequence. When utilizing the scope and sequence, I made sure that address all the things that were supposed to be taught in that lesson. In addition, I ensure that my lesson was aligned with the objective. When analyzing my teaching I check for students understanding. If most of the students understood the concept then I know I did a good job at teaching the
