Reflection:
Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for
you to teach?I think that the easiest part will be my introduction
of the town of Jollywood and the little video.
Which part will be most challenging for you to teach?I think the
most challenging part will be having the students make the hats. I
might be able to have
them bring in things from home to make the hats. (material, old
hats to fix up, little pins)
How will you follow up or extend this lesson?I will follow up
this lesson by sending home an assignment to interview a neighbor
about what they do
for a job. Students can present their interviews in class the
next day.
What can you do for students who dont grasp the concepts?For
students who dont grasp the concepts I can have students work with
the teacher and a small group
and practice writing good rules.
Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to
change?I might want to have the students dress up that day to
present their jobs to the class instead of just a
hat.
When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most
difficult part?The most difficult part of the lesson was finding an
interesting lesson for the unit.
