Pase II-How to Blow a bubble
Phase II of the Blog reflection is due within a
week the implementation of each lesson. The reflection should be based
on your experiences as well as feedback from your classmates.
- Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe
- What went well and what didn't go well during the implementation of
your lesson?I felt like my "students" were engaged and they commented that it was a really good idea. I was however, short on time so I was not adequately prepared.
- How well was the alignment to objectives and standards maintained?
The standard was to produce writing that was appropriate for a specific task. The objective was to write a paragraph, describing how to blow a bubble, using descriptive words.
- Describe any modifications made during the implementation of the
lesson. At the end, I was short on time so we spent the time researching a question a student had about oral hygiene.
- Mechanics:
- What technologies did I use (for the teacher and the learner)? Students used Pixie and Kidspiration.
- How were the technologies used (by whom and in what manner)? The students used Kidspiration to make a web chart of descriptive words and then used Pixie for writing a paragraph and drawing their picture.
- My lesson was not within the correct time frame
- It was short because…I wasn't prepared with extensions.
- It was too long because…
- The lesson was within the correct time frame because...
- Assessment of Learning (InTask Standard # 6): Refer to Assessing Student Learning
- Include at least 2 digital artifacts that demonstrate what you or your students (peers) have created as a result of your lesson
- Describe your students' level of success in achieving the standards
and objectives for your lesson based on your assessment. The students did a great job using descriptive words and writing their paragraphs. Their outlines were well organized.
- How do your individual reflections support this? The questions asked helped me understand if I was succeeding in key areas.
- How do the comments from your classmates support this? One person gave me feedback and it shows I did generally well. I got a 5
on being prepared but a 4 on individual needs, individual support, and
engagement.
- What did you learn from designing and teaching this lesson
and how will you use this in the creation of future lessons/learning
activities. I was pretty happy with my lesson plan. I really needed to be more prepared with extensions in case the lesson ran short, which it did.
In these reflections describing the process of creating and implementing your lessons, you have given some great insight into what you wanted to do, and what happened during the lessons. Take what you learned from it, and build on your understandings for future lessons. This will help to make each of your future lessons the best they can be.
