Reflection on lesson:
Planning my reading lesson was pretty easy and I didnt run into any issues. The student had
been learning about different kinds of text and how to read text then answer questions, using
detail from the text. For my lesson students were to read a passage and write how two things in
the passage are similar and different. To begin my lesson I did some review and asked students
what the words similar and different mean. The students seemed to understand the difference
between the words and could give examples. Next, we read an article about two types of
mountains as a group. Then, as a group we looked at the two types of mountains and wrote two
ways each mountain type is formed. Students had to write in complete sentences. For
independent work students went back to their seats and read an article on their own about how
animals hide. Students had to write in their journals two ways animals hide are similar and two
ways they are different. To get a three on assessment, students had to write four ways (two
similar, two different) using complete sentences. After students were finished with their work,
they could have computer time for reading games or read independently. Overall students did
well on the assignments and wrote good sentences. Some students struggled on where to find
information in the text to complete the sentences. I had to give help to some students but most
could complete the assignment on their own.
I think one thing I could have changed is having more hands on work. Students did a lot of
reading and I think they would have stayed more engaged if they had a video or workshop to
break up the reading and writing. When choosing articles for the students to read I chose things
that were fun and that they were interested in. Students really enjoyed reading about mountains
and animals and found the content interesting. I really enjoyed teaching this lesson and I believe
the students benefited from my teaching.
