Strategy Lesson Reflection

I feel like presenting for our strategy lesson went very well. I think that we were able to communicate our ideas well with the class, and majority of the feedback that we received agreed with this. There were a few things that happened that I felt like were really good. For one, as a group we really understood what would be helpful in an actual classroom, and we were able to implement that into our lesson and communicate that to our peers. I think that assigning students to groups ahead of time really showed that we were thinking about and aware of behavior management strategies within our lesson. I also believe that our concept can be practically used in a math classroom and, when used well, could be a real asset to the teacher and the students. One of the “grows” that we got most consistently was saying that we should walk around to make sure the students are on task or either so that we can pick up some of the interesting or helpful things that students are saying in their groups. I think that this advice is so helpful and would be very good to implement in the classroom. Overall, I think that our presentation went very well, and I enjoyed hearing what everyone had to say!
