Day 3 write traits : Word Choice
A collegues feedback on my session
Today I thought your lesson (Word Choice) went very well! I observed the following good teaching practices:
Good control - You laid expectations of respect for group work.
You asked the students who left the discussion area to come back, as you had not dismissed them yet - good reinforcement of rules. Next discussion time, you can remind students of the discussion time expextations as well.
You made differentiated groups based on their reading and comprehension assessments. Your kinesthetic grouping by giving each child a coloured paper chit and asking them to find their coloured group was an interesting way to form similar ability groups.
You gave students the choice to work individually or in pairs/ groups (within their coloured groups) - I suggest you still monitor their choice and exert your grouping if their choice is detrimental to their learning.
You reminded them to put their names and date on their paper - a good practice as this small but tiresome point plagues teachers.
Students were clear about their task and immediately set about it, therefore instructions were clear and effective.
Teacher reminded students that they could check the word wall created on the board if they needed to - a big help to support students.
Went around to each group and monitored progress and proided assistance.
You gave them time checks and ensured each activity was ocmpleted in a timely fashion.
You provided differentiated worksheets to support our ESL and lower ability students.
Successfully called them back for discussion twice to give instructions for the next activity.
At the end of the lesson, asked students what they had learned that day - helped them reflect and cement their learning
A well planned and well delivered lesson, Sonali. Smooth flow of students from discussion to task and back!
