Transitions from one area of the lesson to another were smooth with no loss of instructional time. Students followed along as Ms. Neely provided information regarding the Big6 plan for research. (Big6 #1 Task Definition and Big6 #2 Information Seeking Strategies were covered as Ms. Neely used the Smart board for students to follow along and time was allotted for students to fill out their Research Planning Guides.)
OVERALL EVALUATION: Ms. Neely is to be complimented for this model lesson. She is able to make learning fun for students and has developed a great rapport with them. Ms. Neely is professional in her work. She has experienced a wide range of teaching opportunities in this busy student centered library along with library procedures. During the debriefing session with Ms. Neely, Mr. Prince expressed how very pleased he has been with Ms. Neelys teaching and her work in this practicum experience. Dr. Mary Kay Biagini and I have been invited back to visit Marshall Middle School again in December to attend the culminating activity of this unit that will include a museum crawl of student produced work. Parents have also been invited as students share their Ancient Egypt research work in a unique way.
