Course Competencies This course introduces the principles of reflective-reflexive practice as a foundational tool to be applied throughout this course as well as in other courses in your program of study. The course is organized under four themes through principles of reflective-reflexive practice. The themes relate to self, the process of meaning-making, lifelong learning to include the development of employability skills, and community/team learning. The course emphasizes transformative learning and change at the personal level and professional level through critical self-exploration that is based on the principles of reflective and reflexive practice. Organized(collaborative) reflections and reflexive conversation are also encouraged as a means of contributing to holistic development. This includes the development of (a) social, emotional, spiritual and ethical intelligences, (b) problem solving and critical thinking skills and qualities, and (c) personal core values and work…

Describe how the teacher differentiated instruction based on individual learning needs or learning contexts and include evidence from the below passage for support. My class consists of 15 students in the 1st grade. This is my reading class during our "Walk to Read" portion of the day. The most relevant characteristic influencing my instructional strategies was the varied range of reading abilities. Students will model reading comprehension strategies to construct meaning from print. Students will model fluent and expressive reading. Students will demonstrate reading accuracy and decoding strategies. Students will work toward continued growth in writing, spelling, and self-reading evaluation. These goals are based on their individual and whole-class reading needs derived from current assessment and observational data. Each portion of the Daily Five format is designed to help them construct meaning from text. Specifically, based on current assessment and observational data, I presented…

Explain how effectively the teacher actively engaged all students in learning, using theory or effective classroom management practices to support your explanation in the passage below.   There are 20 students in my kindergarten classroom. The subject matter for this learning experience was science, focusing on speaking, listening, and viewing. The demographics include 3 students of Hispanic origin who speak English as a second language and students from rural backgrounds. Listening and viewing goals were to exhibit respectful body language by keeping eye contact with their speaker, actively listening without talking, and keeping their hands and feet still. Speaking goals were to exhibit effective speaking by looking at their audience and keeping their body still, speaking slowly at an appropriate volume, and showing their work. Next, students referred to the visuals and correctly modeled these behaviors while learning about weather features. I used formative assessment strategies to…

Describe observations in the below passage that are relevant to classroom management and student engagement by including elements of the learning environment.  There are 21 Hispanic students in this self-contained, 2nd-grade class, of which 17 are English Language Learners (ELL). The theme of plants was chosen because many science concepts can be taught in the garden. Students can experience an understanding of natural systems by cultivating and harvesting a garden with their own hands. The curriculum was taught as a combination of interrelated subjects rather than discrete subjects. I promoted the development of language skills and social interaction skills through its emphasis on group work. The students constructed their models and hypotheses and tested them with actual evidence and research. Students surveyed their favorite vegetables and created a graph. Once the items had been selected, students investigated different seeds. Students conducted experiments to learn what plants…

Observe the teacher integrating technology in the passage to facilitate teaching and learning, and discuss your observation by explaining how integration at a different level of SAMR could improve student learning. I have 20 students in 2nd Grade. The lesson featured is a cross-curricular Social Studies lesson that incorporates literacy skills. Two students have been diagnosed with ADHD. Students enjoy speaking, researching, and using technology. On the interest inventory, 16 of the 20 students in the class stated that they enjoyed learning about history/social studies. The unit on early settlers consisted of learning activities, projects, and a field trip that correlated and connected literacy, social studies, and math. The viewing, listening, and speaking goals were written as "I can" statements and are used as an evaluation tool. This lesson begins with the viewing goals. I can make connections between words and illustrations to help me understand. I can view illustrations to learn…

Explain how effectively in the below passage, the teacher designed the learning environment to support classroom management and student engagement in the lesson.  I teach in a 2nd grade "sheltered" English classroom where all my students are English Language Learners (ELLs). All my students come from Hispanic backgrounds and speak Spanish as their 1st language. This lesson on facilitating small group interactions is a math review on solving extended response word problems. I have been modeling how to solve one math word problem daily and explaining the process and strategy used in a "T" chart. I am releasing this responsibility onto my students to solve these problems in small groups. Each word problem reviews a concept we have already learned this year, including patterns and skip counting, addition and subtraction with regrouping, and an organized list for multiplication patterns. My content objective is for my students to use one of the strategies we have learned to solve a word…

Observe the teacher integrating technology in the passage to facilitate teaching and learning, and discussing your observation by describing the technology and how it is integrated in the instructional process. This lesson takes place in my general education kindergarten class consisting of 26 students. Parents are heavily involved, and it is common for my students to enter school with above average knowledge and skills, including technology skills. Some students learn best through direct instruction, some are engaged through educational computer programs, while others are kinesthetic learners who need to be physically engaged with their tasks. To accommodate the various behavior and learning needs, I teach through a workshop model involving 5 rotating stations. I typically start with a 5-8 minute lesson in which I explicitly teach a strategy or skill. During this time all students are expected to be respectful listeners. Following the mini lesson, I quickly explain their learning…

Discuss how each of the three high-leverage practices (eliciting and interpreting individual students’ thinking, coordinating and adjusting instruction during a lesson, checking student understanding during and at the conclusion of lessons supported student learning or engagement in the below passage. I teach art at an elementary school with approximately 530 students. I only teach art to students in kindergarten through 5th grade. This 5th-grade art class has 21 students aged 10 to 12. Out of this class, 12 are Caucasian, 6 are African American, 1 is Biracial, 1 is Asian, and 1 is Hispanic. Seven of the students in this class participate in our district's gifted program. The students qualify for the gifted program in various ways, so the abilities and personalities of students in the gifted program vary greatly. I plan art to integrate lessons with science and social. Students know that art instruction is important to their quality of life and that I expect them to work cooperatively…
