Reflection WWW/EBI
What went well throughout the lesson is that I taught the two features well because I kept asking
them questions about them and they answered correctly. Also, for the activity I gave them clear
instruction on what they’re going to do as well as I made a nonfiction book to model it in front of
them to grasp the idea well. And for this lesson I considered timing because it’s something crucial
to take into account.

It will be even better If I made the activity more challenging for the HA students, because it was so
easy for them to finish, and to have back up plans for example, if one group finished early, I should
give them something else to work on.

Behavior management
The behavior management went well for this class because we switched groups, each teacher took
one group and the other group was playing a game regarding the phonics on the smartboard.
When one group finished the activity, I switched them with other group that was playing with the
phonics game. Even when they switched groups it wasn’t chaos.
Groupings/differentiation
I didn’t do differentiation for this activity, because while doing the activity for them, I already put
lines to guide them for their book.
Next Steps in learning and teaching
The next steps in learning and teaching that I should keep in mind are make the activities more challenging
for the HA students, and also prepare more activities for the students if they finished earlier (back up plans)
