living things
PURPOSE Why am I teaching this lesson? What do I want the students to know/to
be able to do by the end of the lesson that they could not do before? (LOs and SOs)
I am teaching them about living things, so they can be able to identify and classify objects
as living things and that they should have to stay alive.
GROUPING: What is the group size? How is every student going to be able to
participate? Will you be differentiating and how?
The students are classified as four groups; each group has five students except one group
which has 6 learners. All of the children will participate by interacting with me and by
doing the activity that we will do depending on their level.

Feedback
 Reflection on feedback:

This lesson was my second one; I followed my mentor's first feedback and saw the
difference with some student's behavior. The session was so interesting because I got
a bird to explain living things, the children were so motivated. In addition, the bird
was distracting some students because once I finished from using I left it on the table
which was a bad thing. Next time if I got an object I will put it away from children's
eyes, so they will not be messing with something else while I'm talking. Well there
were many things that I did and I was sure it is a good thing and I will continue doing
which is engaging the shy students, however I might ask them to give me the answer
in a different way such as: point on the answer or write it down. Overall, the feedback
that is given to me is important and I will be working on it to have better performance.
