did. |

C. Practice-
Go through the study guide for about 20 minutes and answer all questions
that they can on their own, putting a question mark beside the ones
they can't, answer ones they can't with their books, and when they
go to study, they will know that the question marked are the ones
they need to really need to go over. |

Checking for understanding-
When students were done with their study guide, the teacher went
through and asked all the questions. She went down each row and made
each student answer a question, if they were wrong or didn't know
she let someone in the class help. Also this made sure that all students
had the correct answer. |

|
Closure-
Made sure that everyone knew when their test was. Reviewed questions
that came directly from their quiz for the next day. Reviewed these
questions until the bell rang. |

|
7. Evaluation-
|
Children got to work in groups that the teacher picked while they
did their study guides. This helped them because it allowed them to
discuss their answers among each other to make sure they were right.
I really liked how the class ran smoothy, and went from bell to bell,
and all the students had smiles on their faces, and seemed like they
all understood what the lesson was about. |
|
|
8. Teacher Reflection-
|
Kids were really into the lesson. I never saw one child who looked
sleepy or laid their head down on their desk. When answering the question,
they all wanted to answer. If they got the question right, the teacher
would high five them and do a little dance, even though they are in
the 9th grade, they loved seeing their teacher act crazy when something
was right! The dancing and high fives are a great thing to use in
classes, no matter what the age is! |
