observation
This week I was in a fourth grade classroom. I was with a math teacher who teaches the same thing for three classes in a row only this day was longer because they were taking a state practice test. At first i thought this wouldn't be a good day to observe but it really was. I got to hear all the questions they were asking and their questions were on just about everything since it was a state test. The biggest thing i noticed was their problems with the vocabulary used. They struggled because they didn't understand everything in the question and we weren't able to help them which results in them getting the question wrong.

My class is also preparing for the state tests as well. They have been taking practice tests involving vocabulary and reading comprehension. I also found that stundents had problems with vocabulary, they were comstantly calling me over asking what this word meant and what that word meant.
ReplyDeleteI was lucky to have finished my hours because state testing and the last day I was observing they did do a little practice review and I found it to be interesting.
