Reflection Of A Watcher In The Classroom

Teaching Strategies: Use the rice or sand to hide the objects, with the spoons and magnifying glasses have the kids look for the leprechaun’s gold, or find four leaf clovers.

This was done by making a flower shape on a piece of paper and then getting the children to cut around it. I carefully supervised the children to make sure that they do not hurt themselves while they were doing the activity. I also asked the children that were

Also, we had some posters about the shapes and I used them to demonstrate to them. With showing the illustration and let them to touch the colourful shapes I engaged them and I let them to discuss between themselves. I asked them for this activity you should all work as a team and should look at the shapes carefully and according the sides you must put in one circle. For example, in circle 1 we have all shape with 4 sides that we call quadrilateral.

Give each student a pre-cut hat shaped paper. Be sure to have a variety of materials to use such as paper, fabric, wrapping paper, pompoms, and tissue paper that they can glue onto their hat. This is a great way to work on fine motor skills and using scissors, have students work with paper materials first before giving them materials that they will not be able to cut with their scissors.

Before I explained what was happening are before they had started I asked each child to go get an apron and put it on , then I explained to each group of the five children that they had to do different types of flowers showing small ones and tall ones, I did an example for them by drawing a daffodil I started of by showing them the stem I drew it with the small skinny brush then I used the thicker brush for the petals of the flower, after showing the children an example they caught on to the activity and they enjoyed completing it when their picture was completed I then got them to place it on the drying rack and I called up the next group and completed this whole progress over again until each child had completed their activity.

This movie, The Classroom, which was very interesting to watch, discusses all that goes on in the school system, the good and the bad. But it also shows how things at home can affect the way the student acts during the school day. This movie definitely makes you look at students that act out differently, instead of punishing them maybe we should all look deeper into the issue and find a way for the student to thrive and use school as an outlet.

Presentation: How will the teacher present the experience? The teacher would have to give instructions and help the children color the marshmallow and sort them according to their size. Then after several attempts the teacher will become part of the group

The method of the presentation is putting the materials on the round table. Then call the children to sit around the table. Tell the children we are going to make Oobleck. Before doing the presentations is asking the children if we mix corn starch and water is it going to be liquid or solid. Then let the children predict. Show the children how to make the Oobleck. After when the children have their predictions on the Oobleck let the children make the Oobleck. after they are done making the oobleck let the children touch the oobleck so they can observe if the oobleck is liquid or solid when they touch it. Then ask children if the Oobleck is liquid or solid when they touch it.

Make two different lists of somewhat challenging words and pictures. On the chalkboard draw/write the pictures/words for one of the lists that you made. On the whiteboard using the different colored markers draw/write the pictures/words for the other list that you made. Show the test subjects the chalkboard and allow them to look at it for 30 seconds. (Use a timer to time them while they study it) Have them turn around (no peeking) and tell you what they remembered from the list of words/pictures on the chalkboard. Write down the words/pictures that were remembered. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the whiteboard. Remember to write which list was for the chalkboard and which list was for the whiteboard. Look at the results to see if more test subjects

First get your 4 pictures. We found these at www.exploratorium.edu. Then you will need a pink and green see through clipboard that is 8.5 by 11 inches. Before you start the experiment you need to have a clean room. Next find four twelve year olds, two boys, two girls. Then you need to collect the rest of the materials.

Conducting classroom observations are very important to the prospective teacher. Observing helps show how experienced teachers manage their classroom. For this observation it was important to notice how the classroom was arranged, how the teacher interacted with the students, the teacher’s management style, and interview the teacher.

The students that were interested in making these patterns would practice making different designs. Once we layer out the design for the toy chest the tiles were then glued on by the teachers. We then sent our toy chest to "Art All Night" and this was definitually an experience for the students that attended. The decorated toy chest is no longer in our room, but it's

Every morning our students all come together to sit at the blue table where we start by passing the shaving cream around letting each student take a turn shaking the can. This allows the students to build some strength as well as hand eye coordination. Most importantly, this allows the students a chance to be patient as they wait for their turn. After the shaving cream is ready, each student gets a squirt and they have three minutes of free draw. When time is up, the students are told to clear their drawings and they are then given further instruction on what to write. Some days the students focus on letter formation, numbers, and even sight words. To help

Gather materials and read through the lesson. If possible, create an example matryoshka doll to share with the group.

I chose to observe Mrs. Tijerina for my classroom observation. There are many reasons why I decided to observe Mrs. Tijerina. I elected to observe Mrs. Tijerina so I could see another teacher’s perspective on teaching Spanish, as she and Mrs. Fiechter are the only Spanish teachers in the school. Furthermore, I never had Mrs. Tijerina for Spanish 2, as the teacher I had left Adams Central. Additionally within the hour I was observing, there were many sophomore students that I knew personally so I was able to ask them on their options of the class. Finally, Mrs. Tijerina’s goal was to teach in a similar way to Mrs. Fiechter’s teaching, and by observing her I was able to compare and contrast the two
