Observation 1-B

Diverse High School
Tech Ed Video
Notes:



Reflection:

The teacher greeted the children as they came into the room and answered any questions they had before class started. This shows a good connection or relationship between the students and the teachers. It was very obvious that the students enjoyed being in this classroom. They were very engaged throughout the entire class review session that I watched. This may or may not have been because they were promised free time on the computers if they would finish their review early, but the reward worked because they were focussed and on task the entire time. It was clear that not only did the teacher know what he was talking about, but the students did as well. It is obvious that this is a good and effective teacher because the students knew the answers to all of his review questions and all of the kids were engaged in the discussion of each topic! The atmosphere of this classroom is worth mentioning; the students and the teacher really understand one another. When the teacher was asking questions, if the students had to think about it, it was not awkward for the teacher or the students. The students simply thought about the answer until they could form the correct one in their heads. The teacher also validated every answer regardless of if they were right or not.
