Recommended: Classroom management and organisation

Ms. Davide was absent for the second day of the observation. However, the student teacher, as well as the substitute teacher worked well together. In the morning, the students walked inside the classroom with their fingers on their lips, placed their bags, jackets and lunch boxes away and went straight to the meeting area for their read-aloud. This was impressive for the third-graders to do. Because they did not need prompt or a reminder to go to the meeting area for their read-aloud.
However, the transition from the read-aloud to the individual work was hurried and disorganized. For instance, the student teacher did not double check if the students understood the reading and the instruction that they were told. The student teacher read the paperwork to the students without stopping and once the students went back to their seats, they made noises and the student teacher and the substitute …show more content…

For instance, he used the name of the students who were talking as examples to explain the rules of the game. In addition, he asked many students to get up from their seats to show their understanding of chess on the board. This was excellent, because not only did the teacher made the student moved around, he had also assessed their knowledge of what they learned. This strategy was also successful because the students started to remain on task. In conclusion, the student and the substitute teacher made the students worked on their math until the end of the day. When it was time for the students to leave, the substitute teacher and the student teacher did not assess the students’ knowledge about the lesson that they learned. In my future class, I will take five minutes to gather the students on the meeting area to ask them questions about how their day went in school and what they did throughout the school day. That way, I will be able to prepare my lesson for the next

That put all the responsibility on his shoulders, that if he still didn’t understand the teachers it was...

We read the passage and I had them underline the central idea and supporting details. We answered the corresponding question. Some students picked A, D, or C.

  • Reflection Of Through Deaf Eyes

    867 Words  | 2 Pages

    The documentary of “Through Deaf Eyes” has open my eyes to the deaf culture. The movie has made it “click” that deaf people are just that people and individuals like me. Deaf community has its struggles just like everyone else. They struggle with growing into who they are as a person, harmful situations, and feeling a sense of belonging. They just speak a different language like Italians and Hispanics. Communicating with a different language does not make them lesser than a hearing person. When able to learn to communicate, the deaf are able to learn and gain knowledge just like a hearing person. The only difference is they have to learn more and work harder to achieve their goals and gain knowledge, which a hearing person learns just by hearing their surroundings.

However, this caused a disruption during my read aloud, and the children began to lose focus. In my read aloud video, you can hear Alexis’ group going to the work tables and beginning their activity at 5 minutes. I tried to get the students back on focus because I was busy answering students’ questions. I believe that one thing I could have done better was getting the students to focus on the book again.

    Announcements signal the end of time to work on the bell ringer, and after announcements Ms. Schreyer leads the class in checking their work. After morning work is completed, the students begin their science block, then the students had their technology special. During this time, Ms. Schreyer had a planning period. When the students return from technology, a few students leave for a pull out emotional support class, a student from second grade joins the class, and the rest of the students have math class. After math class ends, the students went to lunch as I completed my time in the classroom. On Thursdays, I arrive a few minutes into math class, typically as they finished checking homework from the night before. I observed the remainder of the math lesson until it is time for lunch and recess. During recess most weeks, Ms. Schreyer's classroom was the workroom for students who did not complete their homework or lost recess time for whatever reason. After recess the students have a bathroom break, then switch classes. Ms. Schreyer's homeroom students move on to writing, and a new group of students came to math class.

  • Peer Tutoring: Enhancing Productivity in School Learning

    1821 Words  | 4 Pages

    Teachers observe how the peer leaders grab the attention of the students and how they connect, so they can do a better job on enhancing the learning of the students. As the author, Fiske, says,“‘First, teachers should be encouraged to move beyond describing what they see and experience and to analyzing what is happening in their classrooms. Second, teachers should be encouraged to think about problems from an alternative perspective, particularly their student’.” For example, Mrs. James has students in her classroom that struggle with her Grammar assignments. Mrs. James continues to try and find different and unique ways for her students to actually get her lessons. She encourages her highest grade student to re-teach her lesson on Grammar. As the student, Marissa is re teaching the class this information, Mrs. James goes around the class with the role and her notebook. She’s taking notes of how each student is taking their own notes over the lesson, and she puts them all into categories. The categories are based on what kind of learner the students are: Auditory, Kinesthetic, or Visual learners. Mrs. James creates a whole new plan on how she can get reach her students on a different level for their understanding. Teachers have to learn how to deal with specific students in their classroom.

    In conclusion, Mrs. Doe displayed how she uses classroom management and reciprocal teaching as well as group activities to allow children to learn from each other and become models for each other that Vygotsky believed was important for learning. Structure is important to her, but she is also able to keep it fun as well. She said “you joke, laugh, talk, read and do the math.” But more than that, her passion keeps her motivated and her sense of self-efficacy is obvious to me and her students will see it too.

  • Classroom Observation Report

    1250 Words  | 3 Pages

    Two days a week in the morning, the children participate in a reading and writing block called “literacy and writing workshop.” The classroom is organized into five different levels with one group having one extra person; the levels are based on scoring of reading assessments. The groups are rotated so that each may spend 15 minutes cycles with either the teacher or Para-educator. The groups not with an instructor were to work on the “Daily-5” (explanation later) until their scheduled lesson. After the students finish their lesson, they are to fill the remainder of the workshop time working on “Daily-5.” This workshop is part of a regular routine. The students understand that after a reading a story with the teacher, they are verbally given a writing assignment. The assignment is usually to write a five sentence paragraph and color a picture related to the reading.

  • My Classroom Observation Experience

    916 Words  | 2 Pages

    The teachers were giving the students positive reinforcement throughout the day. In class we talked about how positive reinforcement helps the students to succeed in their classes. Another ah-ha moment was the environment of the classroom. The classroom had no windows at all. In class we talked about what kinds of things are distracting to students with ASD in classrooms and one of those things are the windows in classrooms. The third ah-ha moment was the parent sheets that the teacher and the school provide for the parents. In class we talked about how parent involvement is very important for the students with disabilities. The teacher fills out the parent involvement paper that lets the parents know how the child did in school this week and what their child needs to improve on. The students must give their paper to their parents to look at when they get home. The things that I had learned during my observation experience that I will use in the future for my classroom will be including student learning objectives in the classroom, using positive reinforcement, and get the parents more involved in their child’s education. I will go over with the students what the student learning objectives are in the beginning of class so the students will know what they will be doing and what they will be learning throughout the day. I also will use positive
