TRB Standard 5 - Educators implement effective practices in areas of planning, instruction, assessment, evaluation and reporting. Educators have the knowledge and skills to facilitate learning for all students and know when to seek additional support for their practice. Educators thoughtfully consider all aspects of teaching, from planning through reporting, and understand the relationships among them. Educators employ a variety of instructional and assessment strategies.
This lesson was one that I am quite proud of as I was able to incorporate all aspects of a successful lesson. I was able to hook my students with an effective link. We went thought the process of experience and discussed the poem, what type it is and what words you could use. We analyzed the different parts of each poem and asked questions and made not of the patterns in the poem. Then we went ahead and started to write our poems. Before writing I had addressed the different learners in the classroom providing my students with visual and auditory examples for their learning. We worked over a period of three classes where students were able to be creative and produce their own original work. The good copy of their poem was written on an umbrella and then with it they drew a corresponding raindrop which was a visual representation of their poem. Once there work was all finished I set up the teacher stool in the front middle of the classroom and asked them to share. The students by this time were familiar with classroom workings and they would often use my signals to gain their attention and if they wanted to share they had their moment to be in charge of the room and share their work. I was able to sit back and enjoy my students and their work while they were able to express how proud they were of all of their hard work.
