Another way that this homework policy helps promote positive social interaction inside a second grade classroom is when graded assignments not picked up within two days should be discussed with the teacher. This discussion allows the student to explain the reason why the homework was not picked up and provide valuable opinions as to how this problem can be prevented in the future. A2. Self-Motivation The homework policy also includes that students buy a day planner and use class time learning how to use it. The use of the day planner promotes self-motivation because the students are learning how to manage their time in school and at home to be able to complete their homework.
Classroom management, engagement, and motivation NBT1 Task 1 Amanda Gray Scenario 2. Mr. Collet has a 3rd grade classroom homework procedure that promotes practices with positive social interaction. He has developed a plan that allows each student to get homework in the time frame designated. He has created a procedure and has given each student and parent a printed handout that gives details on how the system will work. The students also have a daily planner that allows them to record daily homework entries.
My cooperating teacher told me that it’s a good thing if the administration knows your name for positive things not for discipline problems you cannot take care of in your own classroom. As I have had to learn by experience and practice, classroom management is all based on judgment calls. There is no rule book for classroom management and each and every class is different. Having read this book a few months ago when EDU 511 first started I have had a lot of time to be in the classroom. In practice, there are certain behaviors that I have learned to ignore.
Using SEI Strategies in a SIOP Lesson Plan Fawn L. Stevens Grand Canyon University: ESL 533N February 17, 2014 The class is learning about Native Americans. I am working with their science, language arts and math teachers. All the other teachers are also discussing Native Americans in their classes. Today's lesson is about the Navajo Indians. The students will be conducting research in a small group setting on some basic facts about the Navajo Indians and presenting their findings to the class when they are done.
Adding to this, the pronunciation of their words has to be clear, loud, and slow insuring their pupils understand what they have to do without any problems whatsoever. For example, when we are in class, the teacher has to conduct her lesson in a manner which we all can understand; this is done in a clear, loud and slow way. When using verbal communication, teachers use a variety of questions to their pupil to get them involved in the lesson and to find out more about them. For example, a teacher every so often gives out homework assignments, when the homework is due; the teacher asks the pupil “have you done your homework?” The student will then answer. Another example of this is, when a teacher is conducting a lesson the teacher will test a pupil by asking him/her a question about the work.
EDCI 352 Reflective Essay Planning and Preparation: My clinical instructor was Mrs. Mills, a kindergarten teacher at Marietta Elementary. Mrs. Mills has a planning book where she keeps all her lesson plans. She allowed me to look at these lesson plans. She includes the objectives she covers and intervention strategies in case they are needed. She is required to submit her lesson plans to the principle for approval every week.
I like that the entire exit signs were visible and that there was parent update information board in the classroom. Teachers were making sure to go over all classroom rules before letting students move around. I also noticed that the classrooms were very clean with hardwood flooring and rugs that were installed into the floors. I noticed that the teachers were very engaged with the students and were not just standing around talking to each other they were making sure each student was safe by looking around and interacting. After each activity for example snack time, art time, play dough the desks were cleaned with disinfecting wipes and all children washed hands.
And at the end of the lesson, they will be able to understand the technique and process of pottery craft workmanship using circumference technique. The teacher started the lesson by showing to the whole pupils in classroom a few samples and model of potteries and asked them if they ever see that samples in their homes. For better induction set, the teacher should have been made the pupils more curious about what they are going to learn and not only by just showing them that samples directly. The induction session was very simple and minimal which is cannot create some eagerness among the pupils to actively involved in introduction activities. Teacher should set out the learning objective clearly because for the level 1 pupils especially Year Two pupils, without a clearly and precise induction set, the objective of the lesson will not be fully achieved.
I noticed that in the back of the classroom, there was a huge shelf containing books organized in different levels like magazines, realistic fiction, non-fiction, Times for Kids, National Geographic and so on. Throughout the class, there were some hanging instructions of how to take good notes, how to be a good listener, and what rules to follow. On the right hand side along the wall, there were 4 computers where students could use to do Kid-Biz or On-line activities. After Mrs. M. settled in, she finally asked
She welcomed all of her students at the door; we went into the classroom, hung up our jackets and sat down at our desks. I can remember the crayons and the pencils we were given, a piece of paper and listening to the teacher tell us what we were going to learn in first grade. The teacher actually taught us how to print our name. It was part of the basic curriculum of reading, writing and arithmetic. This is where you learn how to print and write your name and practice your penmanship.
