Day 2 Reflection
Today, was better than yesterday. I focused on engaging with students that don't speak up as much or seem to become easily disinterested in the information. Keeping the energy in the room is so important and I want to keep that energy for the rest of the week. I'm seeing that getting them moving is key to keeping their interest.
Below are my pros, cons, and solutions for today:
Pros
- Everyone stayed awake and alert
- Started off with music and set the tone for the day
- Rewards help incentivize participation (Candy)
Cons
- Hesitancy to embrace wrong answers
- Keeping time and the pace
- Not having a solid wrap-up at the end of class because we are in a rush
Solutions
- Give the students the encouragement to be loud and wrong instead of second guessing themselves and whispering
- Keep a timer to make sure that the lesson doesn't overtake their activity time.
- Speak with other instructors
Overall, today was another win!!!
