LAST POST! Week7

I had to leave early Wednesday night due to an emergency concerning my daughter. I had left her at my mother's house so I could so some homework but she fell and hit her head then soon started throwing up so we took her the ER. She is fine thank goodness but they told us no concussion that she probably threw up because she was crying so hard. Had a follow-up and still no signs of concussion..yay!!

What I did take from that short bit of class time on Wednesday, we started talking about readers theater and I love readers theater! I really think it gets the kids extremely engaged in the story they're reading or short poem. The video that Mrs. Steffes showed us with the class doing the hand signals and movements together was super creative, engaging, and interactive with the students!

What I took from EDUC 337 was all of the different learning strategies we learned. This particular thing I, personally, have worried about since day 1 of deciding to become a teacher. That and creating lesson plans :). My two biggest fears. Look at us now, becoming lesson plan creating pros and understanding all sorts of new strategies to teach our future students! All that stress for nothing :)

  1. I love Readers theater too, I think it gets the students actively engaged and they are able to use their whole brain and body while participating in Language Arts.

  2. I am glad that she's ok. The parenting handbook they give out at the hospital doesn't go over this sort of thing, does it? (insert eye roll) I am so glad you are feeling good about lesson planning!
