I believe that many students need motivations and reasons to do frequent studying, reading, and exercising; therefore frequent in-class exams will give them good reasons and motivations to start reviewing a chapter. Frequent tests will be more efficient in classes that require a lot of readings and memorizing, such as history, politic, geography, etc, because if a student procrastinate his reading until a night before the test, he will be overwhelmed. Another advantage from frequent exams is that students can use their returned exams that have been given feedbacks and the right answers for their study guides to prepare for their midterm or
You have a visual/graphic learning style. Recalling pictures, diagrams, or slideshows while taking a test means you visually learned the material. Learning by sight is probably one of the most common learning styles. Educators often use visual aids to teach, because students often understand the material better. Being able to see what has been being talked about in the class all week, makes learning easier for a visual learner.
The middle school students increased their abilities to locate main ideas when challenged with exercises in the lesson cycle. The lesson cycle was effective because it gave students practice with text structures, signal words, and graphic organizers (Montelongo, Herter, Ansaldo, & Hatter, 2010). The students also confirmed their comprehension through the correct rewriting of the given text. The authors conclude the study by acknowledging that further study is needed in order to evaluate the quality of expository writing and its effectiveness on comprehension. They further recognize that this study was limited to the specific use of main idea placement in either the first or last
For instance in her algebra class , when her teacher explains the way to solve the problem or what ever they may be learning that day she would understand it the first time she hears him explain it. She always wants to know something new. Jasmine is very sweet and she can get along with everyone that come in contact with her. She will also help anyone that needs help. She would try to help someone with there work even if she doesn't know how to do it.
I can honestly say that the teacher in the classroom did a great job with her students and I will be walking away with a bunch of awesome strategies and resources to take back to my own classroom to help with teaching reading and language arts. During this journey and through all of my observations, the teacher and myself had the same goal in mind and that was to make sure that we were educating the students to the

In every test or quiz given to them, they get mastery or above on them because they study and read over their notes every night. They encourage and empower me to renew my commitment to my education. Whenever I don’t feel motivated or just feel like giving up, I think of them and remind myself that they didn’t reach that level naturally or because they are geniuses. They reached that level because they took advantage from the beginning and practiced good study habits so the information stuck to them. And so in short, they worked hard for it and put effort into it.
Some instructional strategies that Mrs. Mills used in the classroom included reading aloud a picture book, guided reading sessions, and peer-reading. It was easy to tell that most of the students were receptive to the teacher and learning. However, I spotted one or two of the students just mimicking what other classmates where doing. Every one of the students I observed loved hands on learning, and Mrs. Mills took advantage of this every chance she could. She uses the constructivist approach to learning by using prior knowledge to enhance learning and scaffolding techniques.
Nowadays, many people on the world learn at least one foreign language because they want to improve themselves. The problem is how to learn a foreign language effectively. I think the best way to learn a foreign language is combination of the two ways: going to class and learning by yourself. When you study the foreign language in class, you have some benefits. You will receive the good materials that provide by school.
Each class was also very informative because we had sufficient time to examine and receive a fully detail information to grasp the concept of what the teacher was bringing across. We were given the advantage of expressing ourselves individually and as a result we were able to clarify any misunderstanding we had about the topic of discussion and give our view towards the discussion. The lab sections, on the other hand, were not as successful as I hoped. There was a merger between our class and another. Therefore, students were unable to get enough practice they deserve to understand the procedure completely.
