Spelling Lesson

My lesson reflection

My lesson was based upon the spelling words for the week. I enlarged the letters of each word i.e: make.

These letters were distributed between the students, I would call out a word and the students were to utilise cooperative learning to create the answer. The students with the corresponding letters stood up, they said each letter and then the word, from here the entire class would day and spell the word. Students worked well during the cooperative learning task, sharing and discussing which letters and students needed to be used. This continued with the words; little, made, look, just. From here students completed a spelling word sheet which complemented the spelling words (See Below). This worksheet provided me with the confirmation of the students understanding and improvement of their spelling words. While completing the worksheet students interacted with each other to determine tricky tasks. Following the worksheet the class played the game BUZZ, this provided the students with the competition to show me and other students how much they know. The game reinforced the activity and the worksheet and provided a clear evaluation of the overall lesson.
Ultimately I feel that the lesson was a great success, I was able to portray my learning techniques and lesson ideas in a fun and interactive way. The students were having fun while unconsciously learning their spelling words. I was able to extend some students while also providing one to one learning for students who need the additional assistance.

Self discovery and Questions

I have discovered that I am able to plan and complete a lesson that is tailored to the needs and abilities of my students. I feel confident to teach a whole class lesson while also providing one to one learning for certain students who need to additional motivation.
Questions – What other activities would have the same learning impact as this lesson?
I feel that I will

    During a science lesson in class 2, I was observing a little group of 6 pupils. The learning activity was the pupils planting some seeds in plant pots and then drawing a plant and labelling it. During the lesson a had to communicate with the other teaching assistant to explain which seeds were in which pots and when I needed the water for the plants. She needed to know this because she was labelling the plant pots with the name of what seed was inside. We did this because plants need different types of care so she also wrote what care the plant needed on each label. Both me and the teaching assistant were then going to plant these plants with the pupils outside.…

    This strategy will help improve Finn’s spelling and vocabulary development. Making words is also a great strategy for Finn to do at home with his family. Finn can take a list of words home, whether they are from the word wall or vocabulary words and make his own words at home. The family can work on one word per day, and look for different spelling patterns and graphophonic cues. Finn and his parents can even create a mini word wall at home to showcase all the words Finn has learned.…

    It was obvious that Ms. Brown had created a plan for this lesson by observing the progression of the skills that were being taught and that they were presented in a logical order that aided student comprehension. Both the students and the teacher were familiar with the skills and the delivery. She also posts lesson plans online. Objectives and expectations of the lesson were communicated to the students on a special place on the board, at the front of the class with essential questions and " I can" statements. Ms. Brown was able to gain the students' attention for the lesson with a hook type activity. It was an engaging question for the student to answer that was related to the topic. Students worked independently, in pairs and in groups and read a selection either by themselves or with another student. The material was then presented in a graphic organizer by the teacher with illustrations and relevant examples provided by the students. They also read the selection (either our loud to a partner or to themselves) and then the material was displayed in the form of a graphic organizer for the visual learners. Ms. Brown used PowerPoint to present the material.…

    The long-term results and the value of completing my degree will help me to accomplish one of my life long goals. My long-term results would be meeting the minimum or preferred qualifications for any job that may require me to have an associates or bachelor’s degree. They would also increase my annual salary because I would qualify for better jobs. They may also decrease or reduce the chances of any future layoffs and could improve my job conditions. Some other long-term benefits would include making my family proud of me for accomplishing such a remarkable achievement, setting an example for others, and qualifying for additional schooling. The value of completing my degree would not only be about making more money, but receiving a broad bass of knowledge in which I can build off of. It would allow me to have greater economic stability and security along with more prestigious employment opportunities and greater job satisfaction. My degree would allow me to participate in more leisure activities and service my community. It would also increase my self-confidence and I could then realize my true worth. I will use the tools and assessments in this course to help in my future courses and my career plans by incorporating them into each aspect of my learning process. Collaborative learning environments have taught to me to value others’ opinions and utilize them in my educational, career, and everyday life. Diversity plays a major role in our careers and educational endeavors. We have open forums and discussions that allow each student to express their views on a particular topic. This has caused us to showcase our diverse cultures and difference of how we each handle a certain situation. I will use collaborative learning environments throughout my learning process and career by respecting others opinions and evaluating a situation from a different stand point. Time management is a skill that I seem to…

    Reading assignments - Immigration Explorer is fantastic! After exploring it, I got some conclusions: 1) Immigrants from Asia/Middle East mainly concentrate in major cities of both West Coast&East Coast. LA, NYC, for example. 2) Latin Americans tend to settle down on borders near their origin countries. 3) Canadians are everywhere, but not many in the Middle. 4) Russia/USSR immigrants are similar to Asia ones. Germans are everywhere. Poland immigrants love IL and East Coast. Czechoslovakia ones are similar to Poland ones, but far fewer immigrants. 5)Africans are everywhere except Northern Mid. 6)UK is similar to Africa. Ireland is similar to Poland, but more in West Coast. France and Italy are similar to Asia. No Norway immigrants? (too few, not shown) Sweden is similar to Czechoslovakia. - “After Their Arrival” shows some examples of successful(I think) immigrants’ stories. They are all hardworking, with good luck, and they “do good for the community” and succeed in their career. It shows that U.S. is a place full of opportunities for immigrants, even for ones who cannot speak English, the last man, for example. It also reminds me a word “American dream.” These people have made their “American dream” come true. No wonder so many people fight for a green card every year lol. - David Bacon’s “Equality and Human Rights” informs me a true life of Mexican immigrants and how they fight for rights and “equality of treatment” as other people of America which I have never known before. In my view, US is a civic nation, which means people are bonded by their commitment to the state and the value, not by blood. Immigrants who share same value as the nation are members of the state and other people should respect that. - It seems that EU is pretty worried about immigration, especially illegal one. It is interesting that EU both hope to attract immigrants with high skills to boom its economy and is annoyed of illegal immigration. The picture “African migrants risk their lives…
