Fall+2013+Practicum

For the fall practicum, I am placed at Glenwood Elementary. I have found that Glenwood is an awesome and well put together school with some extremely great teacher. I was placed in Mr. Durning's third grade classroom. He is an extremely good teacher and very supportive of his students. He has been an awesome mentor to have and I love that he gives me feedback on how I am doing in the classroom! The students I have been placed with are very sweet and extremely smart! It is a pleasure to get to work with such people. **Math Night: **

Assessment & Evaluation



Lesson Plan Division

Reflection: I believe I did well on my lesson plan. I put a lot of thought and time into it. I'm not extremely comfortable with division but, as teachers, you have to be ready to teach academics you aren't comfortable with. I believe they had a very good understanding of what I was telling them about sharing while dividing. One thing I definitely need to improve on is time. I went way too fast on my first activity with the book. I got so nervous I didn't even think about looking at the time. Also, I need to learn to be more comfortable in front of people evaluating me. I know the nerves will calm down in time. Over all, for my first lesson being taught in an actual classroom, I believe it went extremely well!
