Lesson+Two+Analysis+of+Instructional+Planning

1. What did the students learn from your lesson? How do you know they learned from your lesson? The students learned about the life of Charles Dickens. They also learned about the ghosts that appear to Scrooge in “A Christmas Carol” helping them understand why the ghosts acted, dressed, and appeared the way they did. I know students learned from my lesson because of the class discussion that took place as well as the quiz the students were required to complete.

2. What did you think about or consider when planning the lesson? I kept the students best interests in mind and wanted them to enjoy the lesson. I made sure they would be able to understand what I was talking about by providing definitions for them as well as little side tidbits of information.

3. What do you think was the most effective part of the lesson? Why? The most effective part was the class discussion because it got the students to actively participate in the classroom.

4. How closely did you follow your lesson plan? If you deviated from the lesson plan, what decisions did you make during the lesson and why? I followed the lesson plan exactly as it was written because the students were very respectful and corporative.

5. Were the activities/materials/visuals/aids appropriate? Why? Why not? Yes they were appropriate because they all followed the subject that was being taught.

6. What part or parts of your plan would you consider changing before teaching this lesson again? I would change the assessment took.

7. What do you see as your teaching strengths? My ability to get my point across to the students and to make myself personable to the students.

8. Identify a goal you would like to have your field-based supervisor assist you in achieving. I would like to find better ways to work with the Smartboard.
