‭Artifact‬
‭Title of Artifact: Whole Class lesson‬

‭ ow did completing this assignment help you to grow in your understanding of application of‬
H
‭content. (How did you use the skills you learned in EDU218 to teach your lesson?)‬

‭-‬ ‭ ompleting the assignment of delivering a whole class lesson was helpful in my‬
C
‭understanding of applying what I have learned through EDU218. Through this‬
‭experience, I utilized the strategies and instructional techniques learned in the‬
‭course to effectively deliver the lesson's content to the students. By preparing a‬
‭lesson plan with the lesson objectives with the Iowa standards and students'‬
‭learning needs.‬

‭ elp you to learn how to use various methods of successful delivery of instruction (what different‬
h
‭strategies did you use when teaching this lesson?)‬

‭-‬ ‭ his assignment also provided an opportunity to use different methods of‬
T
‭successful delivery of instruction. The first strategy I used was direct‬
‭instructions. I told them exactly what we were doing at the very beginning of the‬
‭lesson. This allowed them to know exactly what I expected to get done and what‬
‭was happening in the lesson. Then I used guided practice. I guided them along in‬
‭the Ice Cream Lab. Allowing them to follow and perform as well. Then I also used‬
‭independent practice. Where I allowed them to work on their own. Giving them‬
‭away to see if they understand.‬

‭ elp you to learn about communication skills and discipline knowledge? (the discipline here is‬
H
‭the field of education)‬
 ‭-‬ ‭ eaching the whole class lesson built up my communication skills and deepened‬
T
‭my disciplinary knowledge in the field of education. Effective communication was‬
‭needed to clearly deliver the concepts and ensure the student comprehension.‬
‭My communication skills are also a way to help me build a positive classroom‬
‭environment. The discipline knowledge showed me the importance of having‬
‭some sort of assessment throughout the lesson. As well as why its important to‬
‭meet the different types of learners.‬

‭ eflection:‬
R
‭(Explain what you learned from teaching a lesson to the whole class?)‬

‭-‬ ‭ ompleting the whole class lesson assignment was a great learning experience.‬
C
‭It allowed me to set up an entire lesson. It gave me practice in preparing a well‬
‭thought out lesson plan. While giving me the opportunity to prepare and deliver‬
‭the lesson as well. It taught me the importance of using different strategies to‬
‭meet each different learner's needs. As well as finding strategies that work best‬
‭for the kind of classroom environment you have. Completing this assignment‬
‭allowed me to also reflect on what I need to work on for the future. Overall this‬
‭assignment taught me the importance of being prepared for any kind of learner‬
‭need ,and how to prepare well thoughout lesson.‬
