Reflection on lesson: I think overall the lesson went well. I think that I did a good job of showing
the students examples and applying to the different learning styles by talking and writing things
up on the board. I would have split the students into different groups, because keeping them on
task was an issue. Students struggled with actually finding the evidence in the text and
articulating that to me, so I would have shown more examples of highlighting in the text where I
found my answer.
