This week group 1 kickstarted teaching to the 5th grade! Overall group 1 did great! I can't imagine how nerve wrecking it would be to teach first. I give Marie and Aimee a lot of props for going first and doing well. The students in the 5th grade seem to be a great class together. They are so intelligent! The students know a lot about the topic we are going to be teaching them (this makes our job a tad bit easier)! From what I saw, Marie is going to be a wonderful teacher. She is so encouraging, has a great, loud tone to her voice, and is very gentle with the children. Aimee has multiple good qualities as well. She is caring and uses great eye contact. Marie and Aimee taught about latitute and longitude. Their inquiry lesson included a lot of The students question what the teacher says, that’s what I meant by they are so intelligent! Both teachers were well prepared with their replies quickly. During their lesson when students wouldn’t cooperate they would use a little line that said “1,2,3 eyes on me”. I really liked that and thought it was cute. I am nervous yet excited to teach next week! Creating 3 different lesson plans have defiantly been a challenge! I am tired, and sleep deprived but I am so happy with the group I am in. We really are becoming a family. I think that we all will thank Dr. Smirnova in the long run for these long, endless nights in the library working on our 3 lesson plans! GREAT JOB GROUP 1! You set a wonderful example for the rest of us to follow!
