Today, they had a two hour delay so I observed another’s
class who helps students who are falling
behind. There is only four students in
the class and they are working on reading today. She is a very
organized and
energetic teacher who acts out what she is saying. She told them about inertia
and went over
a few laws. She then answered a few questions on a sheet she
passed up with the students. She gave
examples of inertia by throwing her
marker and had the students point to the paragraph they were reading to
make
sure they were following along. She asked the class if they were awake which
was greeted by silence
and a shaking head. A student did not have a pencil so
she reprimanded him and warned him that it was the
second day and he better
have a pencil next time. She clapped her hands to wake them up when the
students were not participating in answering the questions. Though she has a smart
board, she prefers the
white board, never using the smart board during the
class. A lady then came and took the four students
away for some reason unknown
to me. I was surprised and went back to Mrs.Vasko’s class. It was a study
hall
and now it is the English class. They shared their summaries and talked about
how to make the
summaries better. She uses the smart board by using her
computer. She always wears a microphone around
her neck which confuses me. Her
class is not big.
