Graded Lesson Plans 3

This week we finished our third week of graded lesson plans Overall the group of 2 besides me  did great, I loved how engaging and fun theses lesson are.

Abagail H was the first to go and her lesson was over the westward expansion. I really loved her objective and I thought it was a well written. I also love the fact game and I felt that it was a great way to keep the student engaged. Another thing I loved about your lesson was the journey journals and the questions you asked. Overall it was great lesson that I had hard time picking my favorite thing. Great Job!

The second person that went was me and I did mine over K-math. Which I was nervous and when this happens I talk like 100 miles an hour. I really tried to remember to slow so I hope I did. This is my favorite lesson for the unit. The reason why I picked this standard was for a reason. I remember my first observation for 100. Many of her students still didn't know how to count and they were in fourth grade which made me sad. I tried to pick actives that help each learners be successful at this topic.

Dakota was the last one to go and I really like his approach to his standard. One of my favorite things was the anticipatory set which I thought the question his ask was great. I LOVE all the activities that provide a different way to look at measurement. Each one was very engaging. I like the modification about giving them a similar question to walk them through. I remember wishing that my teacher did that because I struggled in early math. Great Job!

Madeline Hunter Lesson Plan Design

     The Madeline Hunter lesson plan is a seven parts, that include objectives, standards, anticipatory set, teaching [input, modeling, and check for understanding], guided practice, closure, and independent practice. I find this plan easy to follow because it breaks it down into simple steps. There are several things I find difficult with this lesson plan design. The first being research- based strategies because I need to get more comfortable using then in my lesson. The next being extension and modification because I find it difficult to come up with them without having knowledge of the education level of students.  I know that it just takes practice when writing lesson plans, so I'm excited to get better at it. That is why I love these courses because I get a chance to learn new things.

Fun Ways to Teach Vocabulary

http://theteachaholic.blogspot.com/2012/03/word-catchers.html The first fun way to teach vocabulary is to do something called the word catchers. Where the teacher asked the student if they have heard any word catchers for today. The student must tell the teacher when/where they hear/saw the word and give the word in the context in which they encountered it. When the student uses a current or past word they get a reward. This would be a great tool to use to get students really excited to learn different vocab words. As we all know learning Vocabulary can be very boring. The second fun way to teach vocabulary is to have students draw the words to help them learn it. Drawing really helps students visualize the words being taught and helps them with comprehension. I think it important that teachers let the students be creative with their drawings and have them make a funny picture because this will make the vocabulary more meaningful when they get to have a little bit of fun....
