The lesson was about solving addition and subtraction word problems. In addition, in the
beginning of the lesson I introduce the lesson by seeing a video about solving word problem. to
make sure you understand. Then we played Near pod vocabulary game. And present in the power point
steps of solving word problems and we solved it together. Finally, they have online quiz.

Describe (D):
Who is the lesson for? The lesson for Grade 2-5 and 6 for 24 boys and girls.

Where did the lesson take place?

It was in the Microsoft teems online Math classroom. The lesson was about The lesson was
about (solve word problems).

What were you trying to achieve in your lesson?

I try to achieve planning for learning by using high thinking questions. Also I try to achieve the
management of classroom by using timer to be the lesson organizes.
What did the students do?
They were attentive, enthusiastic and focused during we played Near pod to be more involved. In
addition, in the beginning of the lesson I told them about the class rules and then I showed
them video about solve addition and subtraction word problems. After that I let them to join
the Near pod to play vocabulary words and I assessed the students result and I support
them. I presented in the power point steps of solving word problem and I model for them to know what
they should to do and I solved with students and showed them the steps and I told them to write in the
chat the answers. And then we solved book work and I let them to send their work in the chat. In
addition I showed them another engagement video. Lastly, I gave them small quiz to check if they
understand.

Analyze (A):
Why do you think the students responded the way that they did?
Because in the begging of the lesson I showed them video and in each parts I stopped and I
explain for them. I did vocabulary words in the near pod so students should to match. They all
responded to me because they were enthusiastic to learn the word problems by adding and
subtracting.
How well did your teaching relate to the students’ prior understanding?
In Math, the students learned about the adding and subtract word problems. I connected the
Math lesson with the Near pod matching. And I did for them online quiz and more word
problem activities; I found that this was effective, because the students were able to use the
online materials.

How well did you engage the students?

The students were engaged from the beginning because they like to see a video. I believe all
students felt like they could understand the word problems because I also explain for them in
Arabic. They were also successful for the activities, and I found the online worksheet help
students be more confidents.

Appraise (A):
Explain the nature of the experience from the students’ perspective
Did your lesson meet your teaching goals?
I try to achieve my goal which is planning for learning and I provide for them questions to think
and type the answers in the chat. And I achieve my goal because only 10% of students are
answers correctly. Also, I found that the activities were appropriate for students because I
make a search to know new ideas of problem solving activities.

Transform (T):
How might you enhance student learning of this lesson in the future?
For my future practice, I will look for opportunities to let students write in small white board or
A4 papers and open the camera to show me their works. And In future lessons, I need to
improve my language skills by doing more practice. Also, In my next lesson, I could use the
Nearpod and the same time I took the screen shot of the vocabulary words and pot it in the
PowerPoint page for the students who cant access to make sure every one do the same work.

What are the implications for your professional practice?

I could also use self assessments such as thumps up or down to know what they feel about
today lesson.
