Student Teacher personal What went well and why? (In light of group work and planning)
reflection (see template) ● Lesson 6 gives a good bit of time for the student to finish up making the booklets from lesson 5 but also allows them time to add their finishing
touches. L.M.
What would I do differently? (In light of group work and planning)
● There might be too much time allocated to finishing touches alone so maybe we could use some of that time to clean up a bit earlier. L.M.
