Please add specific comments about the student teachers observed strengths during this
teaching practicum and identify areas in which you feel further development is necessary.

Observed Strengths: / Areas in which further development is needed:

Planning for learning objectives are clear
and were written on the board. The lesson
plan is completed. Materials were ready
and accessible to all students
Organization room was very well
organized and the students were greeted
prior to entering the classroom. The
classroom is very conducive to learning.
The students look safe physically. The
desks were arranged neatly with plenty of
walking space between the tables.
Prior knowledge probing questions were
used to engage students into the lesson
Managing Learning activitys instructions must be
clear and purpose of the activity must be made clear.
Students must be given an opportunity to discuss and
record their results of the investigation. As a result,
the lesson becomes too teacher centered. The
majority of the time was spent with the teacher
providing whole class instruction. In addition, the
activity lacks rigor. Students progress were not
evaluated and no feedback were provided to the
students during the lesson.
Differentiation wasnt quite clear as to how the
lesson was differentiated. The low and the high level
of activity were the same which means the low
activity was more challenging than the middle.
Teachers voice must develop a stronger voice to
communicate with the entire class.
Assessing students understanding

General Comments:

Your lesson shows that you were well prepared with all of the materials accessible to all students. Prior
knowledge was activated and the students were ready to learn. The engagement activity was very creative.
However, while the information was being reviewed, and because your explanations couldnt be heard, the
students became bored and were distracted. You must learn to take full control of the class and review the
expectations. You were talking with only a few students while the others were playing. I was unable to
determine whether or not the students have mastered the concept of renewable and nonrenewable resources.
