Lesson

be less stressed. When I arrived, I took out my lesson plan and reviewed until Anne arrived. When she arrived, we talked about what today would look like. Our day would entail reviewing with her how I would present my plan to the class, do work in the health office, reviewed with the secretary what I would need her to type for my lesson for the next day, review with Anne and the health teacher after teaching the class. Anne reviewed my lesson plan and asked me to present it to her like I…

Classroom Management Philosophy and Plan Philosophy of Classroom Management I believe that classroom management is essential in any academic environment. If students are in a safe environment than learning can commence. Classroom environment is also student and goal oriented which means all variables for an effective classroom revolves around the students and their particular goals. I want the students to partake in their learning process. The main goal is to have a classroom where…

They are able to incorporate the special interest areas of the child into the teacher’s lesson plan. Teachers can provide their SIA materials and prompt the student to use them that will encourage them to use their skills for the lesson. For example, If a child is obsessed with maps you can encourage the student to label his favorite maps during a social studies activity or make a compare and contrast chart about…

attract to the different types of magnets. Once we returned to the classroom, several students made statements about characteristics and abilities of magnets that they believed true. As I stood back and listened, I realized that I needed to prepare a lesson on magnetism to clear up students’ misconceptions about the power of magnets. One week later, I collected many items made from different…

Finally, I will also remind the students/ athletes the benefits of a cool down such as lowering your heart rate and reduce potential DOMs. Lesson #2 Full body circuit Specific short term goals for the lesson plan: Students/ athletes will be performing a full body circuit using various machines and free weights.

Lesson Analysis & Reflection The lesson analysis and reflection will be over a mathematics lesson taught to a small group of second graders in a resource room. The timing of this lesson was appropriate. I had enough time to go over the lesson thoroughly. I finished a few minutes early and was able to re-iterate the strategies taught during the lesson. I was also able to implement more problems to make the lesson more concrete for a better understanding of the strategy. The benefits of this…

Important Lesson before Dying In life everyone goes through many objectives that have made them struggle. The most important idea is that people should learn from their mistakes in order to not struggle the next time it appears. The book “A Lesson before Dying” by Ernest J Gaines is a great example of many different lessons. The most important lesson in the novel is the one Jefferson acquires before he dies which is dying a man or a human being rather than a barely human or a “hog”. This…

like a man. Jefferson wasn’t the only one learning however; Grant was too. The book gives a couple of lessons that everyone can learn from.…

The lessons that I had planned for this week proved to be very challenging and somewhat wasteful. However, the good thing about this whole ordeal is that I have become more aware of what works and does not work for the students. I also have a better understanding of how important it is to check for students understanding and keep them engaged throughout the entire lesson. Every one of my lesson plans included powerpoints that would present the content for the subject of my lesson. I had…

In developing my lesson, I was hyper-aware of the consequence of assuming what students may and may not know. I graduated and do a lot of my work in Fairfax County Schools; however, Prince William County schools and Osbourn Park High School run their English education quite differently. I think this explains my concern over checking with Mrs. Hakes what students may or may not have been exposed to in previous years. In her notes, Mrs. Hakes later remarks how well my lesson was planned, with deep…
