Observations:
This week I observed the kids making an art piece for their mothers. They drew a picture of their mothers and then ripped colored paper to pieces and used those to decorate it. I learned a lot about the kids from this. Some of my kids were focused the entire time trying to make it look nice, others were indecisive of what to do and some even glued their hands together. I learned to tell which students are very meticulous in their work and which ones just want to get it done.
Learning Experiences:
As I said in my observations I learned a lot about my students. I was able to see almost every one's learning style. Ms. Hite showed a demonstration of what to do with a picture of her own. She worked on it a little in front of the students to show them the process. Afterwards the students went to their desks and began working. The visual learners quickly grasped the concept and began working on it while others needed help and re-explaining of what they were doing. I just found it very interesting to see the differences in learning in one activity.
Reflections:
I wish I could have spent more time with my class, they were absolutely precious and so smart. I am glad that I had the opportunity to work with them and look forward to going back to visit during senior exams.
Stories to Share:
This week one of the assistant principles complimented me on how well I was working with the students during the Penny Wars. It just made my day that someone, especially an administrator acknowledged my work with my students.
