Reflection Prompt: What do you think went particularly well? How did this strength impact your
students learning?
My voice was strong and clear through the whole lesson. This allowed me to give a lot of feedback both specific and
general that kept all students engaged and active during the lesson.
My time management was very good keeping the lesson at a good pace so that students didnt get bored and stayed on
task for all the activities.
The lesson was well organized so that students knew where to go and how to rotate keeping them safe and confident in
what to do when.

Reflection Prompt: If you could teach this lesson again, is there anything you would do differently?
How would this have impacted your students learning?

I would make all the activities on time as opposed to repetitions that way all students ended and started the activity at the
same time making it easier and faster to transition so I would be able to cover more material.
I would also spend more time talking about strategy so as to add another dimension to the game and increase the students
appreciation for the sport.

Evidence: Where possible, provide one piece of evidence that you

Lesson plan was well written with clear objectives. All activities went from simple
to complex. All safety concerns as well as lesson objectives are posted on the
white board.
Bleachers are broken and would not close so I set up nets so that they would not
pose a safety concern. A lot of feedback both general as well as specific feedback
is given throughout the whole lesson.
Make sure to have visuals or demonstrations for all parts of the lesson while I
speak so that students learn in different ways. I also make sure to sit all students
when I am speaking so that all students can see me and are less distracted by
other students.
