Lesson Review Notes

[edit | edit source]
  • If I'm gonna do the seating chart, I need to remember faces with names, I cannot expect them to be honest with me.
  • Doing the seating chart to start class wasted a lot of time.
  • I chose to raise my voice and be a little combative with the kids. With this sort of class where almost everyone is pushing that's sorta necessary.
  • These two young ladie would be too of my best students, but slowing down the pace has caused them not to be interested, and speak to eachother.

What I did well

[edit | edit source]
  • Keeping the class moving.

What I could improve upon

[edit | edit source]
  • Not being properly prepared with a seating chart before class began.

Next Week

[edit | edit source]
  • Before class starts, ask the kids if they have their pens?
  • Before class, have a better idea of seating charts and things, so I don't waste time.
  • Make sure to play a game.
