Reflection on lesson:
Planning and Implementation
The planning and implementation of this lesson was simpler than anticipated. Mrs. Golfe
was generous enough to allow me to use her Making Meaning teachers manual.
Making Meaning is a reading program that gives the books along with a brief multi day
lesson plan. The day I taught my lesson plan the class was being a new unit on fables
and myths. My planning consisted of taking the day one lesson and modifying it to
include more questions and having students write and share their thoughts. I also read
the text the night before and created sticky notes for any stops and pauses I would need
to know and for the vocabulary in the text.
Strengths
My READ lesson was the first lesson I taught during IMB and I was slightly nervous. The
strengths of my lesson were I explained the objective to the students in the beginning
and I referred back to it at the end. I also read with inflection in my voice to make the
story more enjoyable for students. My nervousness caused me to forget to define one of
the vocab words and one of the guiding questions. I also didnt model what it was I
wanted to the students to do and did not utilize a flip chart.
Future Modifications
Although it was my first lesson taught, after Mrs. Golfes feedback I felt good knowing
that my behavior management of the class of great and that the students did seem
interested. I also learned the LI/ (learning immersion) students like to debate and ask
questions! A few of the students did not agree with the moral of the fable and I tried to
persuade them but it was in vain! I learned that students will have their own opinions of
stories and I should accept it and move on or they will try and debate me for 10 mins! If I
were to teach this lesson in the future I would model how I want the students to answer
the questions, I will ask guiding questions and respect students opinions. I will also
extend the independent practice to activate students higher level of thinking.
