Comments
"During the lesson observed, students were somewhat off task. Based on what the Faculty Supervisor saw in the lesson, the expectations weren't communicated very clearly. Because of that, there was
a good deal of student talking about things unrelated to the learning activity. Emerson recognized this and has a plan for engaging in similar learning activities in the future.
"When students were talking, Emerson reminded him of expected behavior and warned them that if it continued, class "dollars' would be taken from them. They immediately quieted down and started
paying attention.
Comments
"Emerson used a simulation activity to help students more fully understand what characters in a novel were experiencing. It was a creative way to promote social justice.
"All students were treated equitably. For instance, in the simulation activity, students of various ethnicities were selected to be deported to Mexico. One student said she wasn't Mexican, so Emerson
explained that in a simulation it doesn't matter. By explaining to students, Emerson helped his students feel what it is like to be singled out for deportation. For at least one student, this was a new
understanding.
Comments
"Emerson planned a simulation, but there were issues with the simulation because he failed to provide students with all the information they needed to successfully complete the activity. Emerson is
encouraged to carefully think through the learning activities presented and ensure that he plans fully.
"Emerson is a very positive person and is dedicated to making sure students are provided engaging learning activities.

"Emerson thinks about what students need in order to be engaged in their learning, so he develops lessons to be more meaningful to his students.
"As Emerson spoke with his Faculty Supervisor following the first observation, Emerson carefully reflected on what could have worked better for his students. He was clear about what went wrong and
immediately determined what he can and will do to improve similar activities in the future.

"Emerson expressed compassion for his students. He very much wants his lessons to always be engaging.
"Emerson has assigned many classroom jobs to his students. For instance, besides the typical classroom jobs, he has students assigned to other less common classroom jobs. For instance, there as
classroom police who monitor their peers' behavior. All the jobs help promote ownership of the classroom and interdependence of the students.

"Emerson is dedicated to becoming a strong and effective teacher. However, he is encouraged to dedicate the time to fully develop effective lessons. In the lesson observed, Emerson had an excellent
idea, but some of the necessary details weren't evident. As a result, the lesson wasn't as impactful as it could have been.
"Emerson's Mentor Teacher commented that Emerson is not always as prepared as he could be. She shared that Emerson has good ideas regarding learning activities, but he is, at times, not fully
prepared. This results in less effective lessons.
