To be completed by the Observer:
3. Strengths to continue to build on:
Great classroom management choosing their groups because they took too long!
Great voice moderation technique.
Student collaborating in groups to sort card-21st century skills
You facilitating.
Retrieving student prior knowledge on Branches of Government
Making the connection with US, State, and Class constitution.
Reminding them to listen, think and take notes!
Great job having a mid-workshop progress check.
4. Suggestions for future lessons:
Continue to monitor for off task behavior especially in the afternoons. Students
tend to be hyper active after lunch/recess!
When modeling, make sure ALL students stop and listen.
When you give an instruction to a student make sure you follow through even if
he/she tries to justify why he/she shouldnt do it (Lennin)
A Great Lesson! Youve got what it takes to be a great teacher!
Classroom management comes with time.
