Please add specific comments about the student teachers observed strengths during this
teaching practicum and identify areas in which you feel further development is
necessary.

Observed Strengths: / Areas in which further development is needed:

Use of cooperative learning was used for
students to complete their day and night
poster. Clear instructions were given to
the students and they were fully engaged
into the activity.
Various activities were used.
You were, once again, very calm and
patient and the students feel safe around
you.
There is an improvement in time
management from last lesson.
Lesson Plan: To teach students about objects in
the sky (day, night). Day and night are not objects
in the sky. To know and understand what we can
see in the night sky We discussed in our debrief
session about having clear objectives. You will need
to work writing clear learning objectives.
Explore The explore activity has to be an activity
where the students explore the concept. There are
tons of activities that students can investigate the
concept of day and night.
Listen to students When you asked the students
about the temperature during the day, one student
answer that the temperature is low and you agreed.
Then later, you asked about night temperature and
another students also answered low and you
nodded in agreement

General Comments:

Layla, this lesson has a better structure than the previous. Students investigated the difference
between day and night through various activities. Students were given an opportunity to work
cooperatively to create a day and night poster. The students appear to have understood the concept.
You have supported the students and you have checked their understanding via questioning. There are,
however, three major issues that you must resolve. First, your objectives are not as clear as they need
to be as evidence of your lesson plan. To know and understand what we can see is not a clear
objective. Next, your understanding of exploring is still at surface level. To explore is to investigate or
to inquiry. Having students completing a worksheet is definitely not an exploring activity. Lastly, you
must listen to the students answer as Ive explained above.
