This is a project that was completed in lieu of a final exam and includes the implementation of many aspects of mathematics education that I have experienced. I planned a lesson, executed the plan, assessed the students in general, and reflected upon the lesson.
Preschool Mathematics Lesson Plan
I had to design a science project/experiment to help third grade students learn more about a specific topic area. As evidence of my design, I had to create a handout for students that clearly describes the objectives of the project, and is specifically designed to help students achieve those objectives.
This is a sociodramatic play lesson that I created and executed in the preschool classroom where I interned.
This is a literacy lesson plan that I created and implemented in the preschool classroom. The topic of the lesson is identification of the letters.
Preschool Literacy Lesson Plan
This is a lesson plan I created and implemented in the third grade classroom where I interned. The topic of the lesson is making inferences.
3rd Grade Literacy Lesson Plan
Lesson planning is at the heart of teaching. For students, revisiting texts multiple times is a powerful teaching tool and one that allows them to grow as readers and writers. I developed a set of lesson plans that connected to a nonfiction text. The sets of plans included an interactive read aloud, a reading mini-lesson, and a writing mini-lesson for third grade students.
After reading Janis Keyser's book, From Parents to Partners, I had to write a letter to parents. In the letter I had to explain: who I am as their children's teacher, my teaching philosophy, and how I want to include them in the classroom experience.
