4 more words!

Teacher: Ms. Andrade NorthFork teacher: Ms. Shattner
Title of lesson: 12 powerful words dance. Date: 2-22-2010

The specific academic objectives for this lesson were to teach our students the 12 powerful words that would help them unraavel any passages or math problems that may come up. They were first taught the first 4 words of the dance. This time they were taught the next 4 word making that 8.

The objectives were grade level appropriate this time just because we were only teaching them the dance. Kindergarten understand how to follow music and rhythm and how to dance, so we didn't really have a difficulty they understood it well and seem to enjoy doing it.

The objectives were meet. Our objective was to teach them the dance and we split them up this time only want to teach them the middle 4 words. Which they did understand very well. And we reviewed from last class the first 4 words and they remembered. So put them all together and they had the 8 out of 12 powerful words.

The factors that we considered for this is the fact that there kindergartens and they wont really unraavel any story yet. They have this starting 3rd grade. But yet we can teach them this so they can be prepared. Besides it was a dance with meaning and they enjoyed the time and dance.

The content seemed to be very relevant because it was a follow up, from the first time we went to teach them the first four words. Then this follow up from last class , plus this 4 words and next time we go teach them the last 4 and finish with a story.

The strongest moments in our lesson were when we taught them how to dance. Just because it was exciting and fun to them. It had them interested and they wanted to keep on going and learn more. There was a lot of participation and it was fun to work with them.

The areas that we needed to work on would be class room management and moving around the kids more often. Class room behavior sometimes go out of hand and we had to settle them down at times, besides that everything was great.
