Reflection on lesson:
I really enjoyed teaching this ELA lesson. I was extremely worried going into this day because due to Hurricane Florence,
I had to move up when I was teaching. While I was already prepared for the lesson, I had just not mentally prepared
myself to teach any earlier. I also wanted everything memorized fully, which I had to do a lot quicker than expected.
However, after speaking with my teacher right before I taught really calmed my nerves. I do not think I could have done
as well as I think I did without her. She was incredibly helpful the entire time and I thoroughly enjoyed being in her
classroom. As for teaching the ELA portion I really did enjoy it. Being able to teach strategies for something I really love
is just the best feeling.
