3.4 Elementary Observation

For my Education Technology class we go to different classrooms to observe to help us learn how to become better teachers. This month we are focused on elementary classrooms. My elementary observation teacher is Mrs.Lancaster. She is a 2nd grade teacher.

1st Observation: My first observation with Mrs. Lancaster was fun and interesting. Here are two things I learned from the observation. 

Thing 1: I learned how to deal with bad behavior productively. 

Thing 2: I learned better ways to get kids back on track when they get distracted. 

Overall I think this observation was very successful and worth my time. The teacher was very nice and I enjoyed learning. 


2nd Observation: This observation is also with Mrs. Lancaster but sadly it will have to be rescheduled once I am no longer sick. I have a fever.

One Word for 2026

 Heal  Throughout 2025 I went through a lot with my physical and mental well being. I experienced two surgeries and went to the emergency room several times. With all of this happening I have realized that I have never really given myself the proper time to heal. Yes my physical body has healed most of the way from 2025 but not my mentality. In 2026 I plan on giving myself more grace, letting myself be open, meditating and giving joy back into myself. But I can't do any of this without healing. I am a very religious person, who is focused a lot on God's miracles. I know that God will help heal me, so this year I will do just that. This year I will regain my happiness, regain my joy, and heal my mind, body, and soul.

5 Week Observation

  Introduction: My 5 week observation teacher was Mrs. Barker I would go into her classroom every Monday and Wednesday during this time frame.  Lesson plan 1: My first lesson plan was created by Mrs.Barker. In my lesson the kids watched an animated version of a story. During the story I would have the video paused and I would ask the students questions about the story throughout the story. Then afterwards I announced the students to a paper they were going to complete based off of the story read. This includes questions about the character. lesson plan 2: In my second story the students read a passage about Harriet Tubman and then I asked the students questions about the passage that they had to go and highlight in their story. Then afterwards, the students answered the questions that were on flashcards on each of their desks.
