Candidate Teaching

I was extremely nervous walking down to Ms. Childers classroom for the first time.

The first time I met Ms. Childers she was very sweet, had a great smile, and was very welcoming.

She explained to me that she had a visually impaired and autistic student; I was overwhelmed, nervous, and scared. I had a fear of what I was going to have to do to meet their needs.

I was very excited the first time I saw all the little students’ faces.

1. Identify/Reference National, State Performance, Local Curriculum Standards:State Performance:ELA2R4 The student uses a variety of strategies to gain meaning from grade-level text. The studentl. Recognizes plot, setting, and character within text, and compares and contrasts these elements among texts. ELA2W2 The student writes in a variety of genres, including narrative, informational, persuasive, and response to literature.ELA2R3 The student acquires and uses grade-level words to communicate effectively. The student a. Reads a variety of texts and uses new words in oral and written language. ELA2R1 The student quickly applies knowledge of letter-sound correspondence and spelling patterns to decode unfamiliar words.2. Specify Essential Content/Objectives:- In a fantasy story, the characters behave in ways they cannot in real life. Objectives: The students will understand /or/. The students will be able to spell the spelling words for the week. The students will understand the story of the week, "Serious Farm".Essential Questions: How can readers determine the ways in which stories are alike and different?3.

4. Activate and Pre-Assess Student’s Prior Knowledge:I will start the lesson with a "Question of the Day". Everyday right when we start reading I read a question and ask the students to write a complete sentence.  It allows the students to start thinking and get on task. 5. Provide for New Knowledge Acquisition:After the question, I review some word wall words.  Then I will introduce the spelling words.  I will have the students repeat the word and spell them aloud.  Jeremiah will stand and help me, he is visual impaired.  Next, I will teach phonics. The students will interact with me while we do a transparency aloud. After phonics I will introduce the vocabulary and read the story of the week aloud.6. Adjust Assignments for Student Applied Practice:The students will complete centers after whole group. Each center will have 15 minutes. The students will have packets that I create for each student.  The packet is created according to that student's learning level.  The students know what is expected of them during.7. Conduct Post-Assessment for Students to Independently Demonstrate Knowledge and Competencies:I will give a spelling pre-test on Thursday, if the students pass with 100% they will not have to take the test on Friday. Certain students are only graded on the first ten words instead of the fifteen. There will be a reading test given on Friday too. Two students are taken out of the classroom for testing and seven other students are given paper test. The rest if the class takes the test on a scantron. The test is projected on the board. 8. Reflect on Learner Progress: If the students do not make 70% or higher on the reading test they will be pulled aside and review the test with the teacher.

Lauren PolleySecond Grade- 60 minutes each dayLanguage Arts: Lesson 27, Pronouns and Spelling Words

1. Identify/Reference National, State Performance, Local Curriculum Standards:State Performance: ELA2R1 The student quickly applies knowledge of letter-sound correspondence and spelling patterns to decode unfamiliar words. The studentg. Applies learned phonics skills when reading and writing words, sentences, and stories ELA2R4 The student uses a variety of strategies to gain meaning from grade-level text. The student\q. Uses common rules of spelling. r. Uses appropriate capitalization and punctuation (periods, question and exclamation marks) at the end of sentences (declarative, interrogative, and exclamatory; simple and compound). ELA2W1 The student begins to demonstrate competency in the writing process. The studentn. Uses singular possessive pronouns. 2. Specify Essential Content/Objectives: Objectives: The students will be able to type all spelling words on a computer or use the words in a sentence correctly and replace a noun with a pronoun. Essential Questions: What are some pronouns that could replace some naming words?3. Collect a Variety of Materials/Resources for Student Use:Spelling Pre-testDOL SheetLaptopStory Town Website-Pronoun PowerPoint Teacher Checklist Pronoun Sentences

Page 16: Candidate Teaching Summit Presentation  lpolley8@bellsouth.net “Tell me and I’ll forget, show me and I

4. Activate and Pre-Assess Student’s Prior Knowledge: (15 minutes) To activate the students knowledge the class will correct the punctuation and spelling of a sentence (DOL Sheet).First, questions will be asked to see if the students remember what a pronoun is. Together on the white board everyone will try to fill in the KWL. We will list what they already know about pronouns under the ‘K’ column on the chart. The data will be used for the pre-assessment. 5. Provide for New Knowledge Acquisition: (30 mins) The students will see a PowerPoint dealing with pronouns. They will type on a word document the answers to the questions from the power point. After the PowerPoint, sentences will be written on the board and the students will replace the naming words with a pronoun. 6. Adjust Assignments for Student Applied Practice: (30 mins) Once the students have finished the pronoun activity they will either type their spelling words on a document or they will write the spelling words in a sentence. To determine who will be placed where, their spelling pre-test will be the factor. If the student made 100%, they will type sentences on their computer. If the student made below 100% they will type their spelling words as a review for Fridays spelling test. 7. Conduct Post-Assessment for Students to Independently Demonstrate Knowledge and Competencies: Students will have a spelling test. Also, a checklist will be made to keep track with the student’s pronoun activity. Jeremiah and Casey will not be taken out of the classroom into another one with Mrs. Wendy for the spelling test.8. Reflect on Learner Progress: If the students do not make 70% or higher I will reflect on what they missed and see where they need more help.

Lauren PolleySecond Grade- Two days- 30 minutes each dayScience: Chapter 7- Review Activity

1. Identify/Reference National, State Performance, Local Curriculum Standards:National:As a result of the activities in grades K-4, all students should develop an understanding of: Properties of objects and materials Position and motion of objectsLight, heat, electricity, and magnetism State Performance: S2P3. Students will demonstrate changes in speed and direction using pushes and pulls. a. Demonstrate how pushing and pulling an object affects the motion of the object. ELA2W1. The student demonstrates competency in the writing process.g. Writes a persuasive piece2. Specify Essential Content/Objectives: The students will write a persuasive piece about a toy that moves because of pushing or pulling. Objectives: Essential Questions: What makes things move? 3. Collect a Variety of Materials/Resources for Student Use:On the Move! BookDry Erase BoardMarkersSticky Notes5 Wide Rule Paper20 Narrow Rule PaperPencilCrayons

Construction Paper

Page 18: Candidate Teaching Summit Presentation  lpolley8@bellsouth.net “Tell me and I’ll forget, show me and I

4. Activate and Pre-Assess Student’s Prior Knowledge: (10 mins)To activate the students’ knowledge I will read On the Move! During the reading I will monitor comprehension by asking questions. After page 5 I will ask, If I want to move a pencil from one side of my desk to another, do I need a big force or a small force? a small force What kinds of moving needs a big force? moving large or heavy things After page 7, What would you see if there was no gravity? things would float, rain would not fall After page 9, What is friction? friction happens when two things rub against each other After page 11, Why might it take more force to push a wagon across grass than across a sidewalk? Because the grass produces friction, a sidewalk is smoother5. Provide for New Knowledge Acquisition: (5 mins)Ask each child to pick a toy from the reading and think why he or she likes it. Have the child think how the toy moves by pushing or pulling. Explain that they are going to be writing an advertisement and persuading the class to buy their toy. Their ad should include words such as a push, pull, roll, turn, and slide. They may draw a picture of their advertisement. Make it attractive remember you are persuading your classmates to want to ‘buy’ your toy! When the advertisement is complete, the child may glue it on construction paper.6. Adjust Assignments for Student Applied Practice: (15 mins and 30 mins on day two)Five students will receive wide rule paper because their handwriting is not so clear. This is a new idea I just started on Thursday to improve their handwriting skills. The rest of the class will receive narrow rule paper.7. Conduct Post-Assessment for Students to Independently Demonstrate Knowledge and Competencies: I will be giving the students a chapter test on Friday that will cover all the material from this chapter.8. Reflect on Learner Progress: After the chapter test I will reflect on the students’ pre and post assessment grades to see each child’s’ improvement. If the student did not pass the test with 70% or higher, I will see where the child needs extra help and review with the child.

Pre-Assessment Activities KWL Chart “Question of

the Day” Daily Sentence Pre-test Books Minute Math

As a pre-assessment one day in math, I had each student come to the

board to draw, label the shape and tell whether the shape was regular or

not regular. We had talked about regular and not regular the day

before.

Classroom Management System

When I arrived in Ms. Childers classroom I noticed the students would get off task and start talking continuously. I decided quickly I needed to get the talking under control. I came up with a plan that allowed each student to have their own small container at the corner of their desk. In the container there was 5 foam shapes. The students could earn shapes for following directions, being on task, answering questions, etc. I could also take away shapes for talking at inappropriate times, not following directions, etc. The students were trying to have a total of 10 shapes by Friday so they could ‘cash them in’ for an item in the treasure chest.

Team Points Team points was

another behavior strategy I used. The students’ desk were set up in teams and the students were allowed to earn points all together as a team. On Friday the team with the most points, received a snack at recess.

“Move up, Move down” I heard about this idea

from a substitute in our class one day. The chart hangs on the board with personalized close pins and everyday the student would start in the middle. The student could move the close pin up or down according to their behavior. A reward system would be in place too.

Lesson Plan AnalysisOn Tuesday, March 2nd, 2011 I taught a lesson dealing with money

to Ms. Childer’s second grade class at Harmony Elementary school in Pickens County. I have an hour and half for math which leaves bored students if I don’t keep doing different activities. I taught this lesson in whole group with very little differentiation because as a class we have been working with money for about two weeks so far. The students were given a pre-assessment at the beginning of the chapter. (This lesson was towards the middle; two weeks into the unit.) I reviewed with the students by watching a BrainPop Jr. video and then aloud on the board. The students completed a worksheet together with me and then did a activity on their own. Overall, I thought the lesson was successful but would have been better if I had more paraprofessional help.

The pre-assessment was given to the students the day the unit began. The assessment only had ten questions. The questions included counting money. Some students had average grades while others where below. Many of the students had knowledge of the topic. Next time I will give a different pre-assessment for each new topic on money. I feel like with the pre-assessment I had I was not able to accurately see what the students developed from my lesson.

The students and I completed a worksheet aloud after introducing the lesson aloud on the white board. The students knew we had been learning about coins but today we were just introducing using the least amount of counts to make an amount. The higher level students caught right on, while the middle students did eventually, but the lower students did not. The students do well when we work together aloud but I do lose some of the students mainly the ones that have the parapro. I try to direct them back but often I feel like I am doing her job. I am having a very hard time with the parapro. She does not really help the students and they really need that extra assistance that I’m not always there to give because I have 17 other students.

Page 36: Candidate Teaching Summit Presentation  lpolley8@bellsouth.net “Tell me and I’ll forget, show me and I

The post-assessment I used for this data was the coin rubbing sheet I allowed the students to complete after we completed the worksheet together. The assessment had four amounts of money and the students were supposed to find out how to use the least amount of coins to make a certain amount. I thought the post assessment was fairly easy although, many students had problems rubbing the coins so I had them just draw the coins they wanted to use. The class average gain from my lesson was 8.5%. I think the pre-assessment really did not help with the scores because the pre-assessment did not have anything on it deals with the least amount of coins. I should have done a different pre-assessment but I did not think about it. I just assumed that it would not matter and I would be able to see the students’ achievement but I did not. Next time I will defiantly have to make a different pre-assessment to see what the student actually understood out of the lesson. I feel like had I had a different assessment I could really see where the students needed the most assistance.

I had five students; Sean, Dalton, Clay, Jordan, and Michelle that had a negative individual gain. I know from my data that this is not correct. I know all of the students can count money and can tell me what every coin represents. Michelle is a very high student. Sean, Dalton and Jordan are average learners and Clay is a below level student. Clay has a parapro.

I differentiated in the activities the students did within the unit. I did not differentiate on the activity because I was confident in the students and their ability to count money. There is still room for me to grow as a future teacher. I believe I am getting very comfortable with the students and how they act. I still need to grow in differentiating my lesson plans.

With the teacher the students will use manipulatives of coins to find amounts of money in the smallest amount. Once the students understand I will let them complete the coin rubbing sheet again and average the two papers together for a grade.
