My two main takeaways are that I had some difficulties with Woodcock Johnson IV assessment and that I significantly changed my mind about the pedagogy of math. I struggled with administering and interpreting the Woodcock Johnson IV. While I was administering the test it was difficult to just follow the script and not prompt the student to think about the question longer or review their work before they had a final answer.…

With the help of these various revisions, I was able to take a FOSS lesson and turn it into something more suitable for my future classes. As a general revision throughout the lesson, I modified how to address student behaviors when observing the fish.…
