Classroom Observation

Subject: Math and Science

Classroom: General Education

Lesson: Dino- Bingo

This is a classroom observation taking during my student teaching in a kindergarten classroom at Thurston Elementary School. The students' and I embarked on a 9 week unit I designed to learn about dinosaurs, their habitats, as well as developing their concepts of addition and subtraction. This video is one of 9 lessons I designed to provide more practice with the students' math skills.

These observations were taken by Rebecca Schulte, my supervisor during my special education practicum at Willagillespie Elementary School (3rd-5th grade placement). The observation was during a reading unit on story mapping and cause and effect I created for my work sample using the book The Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days by Jeff Kinney.

These observations were taken by Marilee Holden, my supervisor during my general education student teaching at Thurston Elementary School (Kindergarten placement) and César E. Chávez Elementary School (4th/5th grade placement). The kindergarten observations were during a reading comprehension lesson and a Dino-math lesson from my work sample. The 4th/5th grade observation was during a reading and American Sign Language lesson I developed for my Helen Keller unit.

This is an observation take from my professor, Carol Sterry, during my student teaching in the 4th/5th grade classroom. The lesson was on Helen Keller and American Sign Language. *You can go to Lessons and Strategies to see a lesson plan and materials used during this unit.
