d. Behavior: A lot of the students in my class have trouble focusing and sitting still, so I have
incorporated a lot of movement and various activities within my lesson to help keep them engaged
and attentive. I will also utilize the clip chart when necessary to clip up a student who is following
directions. I will also use call and response techniques and a skittles reward system to help manage
behavior.
III. Adaptation to Individual Differences and Diverse Learners—Many of the students in my kindergarten
class need extra guidance during assignments, therefore I will walk around during their individual work time
and assist them without giving them the answers. I will also incorporate some brain breaks so that the
students can stay focused during the lesson.
VIII. Review learning outcomes / Closure (3 minutes) – I will have students gather back onto the carpet
and will place to pictures on the screen. I will then ask the students to raise their hand if they people
have the same hair color, eye color, skin color. This will help me gage if students truly grasp the concept
and assess them.
