Today was my groups first day to
teach. At first I was a bit nervous about teaching, although as soon as my
group got going my nerves seemed to ease. As a group we taught the students new
vocabulary terms using a direct instruction lesson plan. The terms were related
to financing and valuing the companies. We instructed terms such as assets,
debt, liabilities, income statement, and tax. After we instructed the terms we
had the students work together as companies to make sentences using as many of
the terms that they just learned as they could. We ended the lesson by having
the students get together and work on completing their movies. It’s exciting to
see the movies start to come along. I can’t wait to see the finished products.
From today’s lesson I noticed we
need to still make sure to address the students as companies opposed to “guys”.
I feel that over time and practice this is something that will get better. Overall
the lesson was good. I wish that the companies could have gotten more involved
when we were reviewing terms with them. I was a little surprised that out of
all the companies today our group, Jack DL was the most involved and responsive
to our questions. I’m proud of my group, we were prepared and I think our lesson
went well.
