Living and Nonliving Unit Reflection

 As in the previous unit, this 4 lesson unit took over 3 weeks to teach.
 I am noticing how technology is a weakness for me, and I am not familiar with many of the apps.
I downloaded several to use, but I was not successful in using all of them.
 I am noticing how my assistants are not fully supportive of these science lessons as they think
that the concepts are too high for the students; therefore, they are doing some of the work for
the students rather than facilitate the work. To address this weakness, I will need to train and
talk to my teacher assistants beforehand in detail of how I want students to be supported.
 The students loved the sock-puppet app, and I am sure they would have loved green screen had
I been able to use it correctly.
