Finally

So happy to be in the last week of this 8 week session. It has been stressful for me, but I made it through it. I was able to learn so much in this class. I am looking forward to using all the strategies I learned in my own lessons. I never knew there was so many until I took this class, which has been very helpful. Would like to wish everyone A Very Merry Christmas! Good luck to you all!

Take Away From Week 6

I liked the activity we did in class. I would of never put climate change with world's poor. The strategies are helping me become the teacher I want to be.  The lesson plans that were presented were great. Enjoyed listening to them. I taught my lesson plan on the 2nd and it went really well. I will be presenting it next week for you all to see what I taught. The kids in the class really enjoyed it.

Take Away From Week 5

After learning about the different vocabulary strategies, I find the CSSR to be a hit for me. My lesson that I taught to the class was on nonfiction text features. One of the text features that was introduced was bold words. I read the book to the class and there was several bold words. So I would use this strategy to help the kids learn the bold words. Very interesting strategy!
