Success Journal: Day 5

Teaching a lesson in small groups: As part of my requirements, I have to teach 3 lessons in small groups. The topic I was assigned was fragments and run-on sentences, identifying and correcting mistakes. I was nervous but overall I feel it went very well. I used worksheets and brief notes I typed up as an aid. With the groups of students I worked with, I had to change my approach so that I could keep them engaged and motivated. I think this stood out to me the most, showing me, though I have learned this in my classes, that students learn at different rates and may need more explanation before they fully understand what is being taught.
