reflection #7

I was out at maple mountain high school and had a great time Lewis is in my opinion is a good teacher not grand or great but not bad I was able to interact with the kids and it was a lot of fun the interaction is very different then the jr high it is hard to put in words Her class good use a little more structure and she mentioned that to me so it is good to see that she knows and is  willing to correct it 

reflection #8

I was teaching today on medical technology and I thought it went well the feed back was helpful with regards to the structure and the thinking on my feet after they have completed the assignment to challenge them more to help them progress even more and I know all of this stuff I have head knowledge I just need to get heart knowledge

Reflection #6

I have loved going out and observing in the schools it has allowed me to see what works and what doesn't and to see how the kids react to things at different ages. I also have learned from my peers today with the stl teachings I found that it is difficult to get to the higher ends of blooms taxonomy and that when we try to hard as a teacher it can get boring and kills the subject

Reflection #5

observations in the schools are the best thing for me I was out at Salem high this week and found that high school kids are very different then the jr. high mostly because I did not feel as involved with them they had less questions and they were involved in there projects it may have also been the class it could have also been that they did not seem to struggle with it as much I think it will be good to go and observe another high school in the coming weeks

Reflection #4

today I went out to mt. nebo jr high and I found this experience fun and interesting the kids were excited and asking questions and craziness was happening but it was good I don't know if I could take that much crazy every day but it seemed to work that is the other thing I noticed it was hard to see if the kids were learning or not

Reflection #3

Today I was out at vista heights and I found out a lot of good things first I got to see a film class in a junior high school which was good because all I have ever seen is high school so it was great to see the set up and how that gives them a taste of the video world but doesn't take them to deep. One thing I learned today is a golden nugget of class room management today one of the kids got super frustrated at the assignment and at the teacher the teacher then said to the student that he was not going to get mad or dock the child for being behind he was loving and caring towards the student and helped calm down the student it is the best way I have seen of handling this kinda of situation great learning day.
