between to two objects. Also to compare the two formulas = 3 and = 2 . If the
formulas hold true then we should be able to fill the cone 3 times and emptying each time in the
cylinder until the cylinder was full.
I wrote the lesson plan illustrating one cylinder problem on page 320 and one cone problem
from 321. I also, wrote the lesson involving a cone that we could fill up and then empty into the
cylinder. The students would then be required to go back and finish the problems on both pages.
the lab to illustrate and prove the formulas. I wanted to do a lab to get feedback from my
students about volume and its relationship between the shapes and their own characteristics last
year with the lab the students didnt understand right away solicits ideas from students on how
best to structure the learning (Danielson, 2013, p. 23). I felt the lab would be helpful.
learning goals were on the board. I moved around the room as I asked the students questions
using cues and other signals to redirect negative behavior. I had one student that continually
pulled out her eyeliner. I didnt address her directly because she was still following along and
taking notes.
Instructional Delivery
a) Communicating with students
My delivery of the lesson is clear and insightful. My goals and objectives were on the board. My
two teams raised their hands and waited for me to call on them for points, right or wrong. Again this is a
work in progress. As I mentioned, I deduct points for each time they dont wait for me to call on them.
The students know what is expected of them. During the lesson I assessed them by asking questions
regarding their understanding along the way. The classroom had the structure of a positive learning
environment, both through the lecture and the lab.
Professional Responsibilities
a) Reflecting on teaching
After teaching Volume of Cylinders and Cones, I wrote that the lesson went well. I added that I
needed to break the labs into smaller groups and add an egg timer to the lesson to indicate rotation. I will
put this away and pull it out the next time I teach this lesson and develop as a teacher.
f) Showing professionalism
As a teacher I want to demonstrate leadership within my classroom for both the lesson and the
lab. In the classroom on the day of the lesson I did exactly what I do every other day: Treat the
students fairly with the respect they deserve.
