struggling?
How does this scenario relate to what we did in either of the last
three class periods?
What similarities to you see with the last lesson?
What did we use cosine law for?
How did we find a missing side when we didnt know the angle?
Explain what you think the question is asking?
Why do you think they would give us that information to find that?
Explain why you needed to use that rule to find the answer?
Which piece of information was most crucial to finding the
solution? Why?
Relate this to a context in which you would need to find a similar
solution?
How could you have optimized your work so that you could have
solved the problem in fewer steps?
What questions
will you ask
students who are
getting it?
1. What parts of the lesson were more effective? What went well in your
teaching? What evidence can you provide?
THE RELAY RACE WENT AMAZING! All of the students loved the
competition and they all had their chance to get involved.
All of the students used the support I allowed from the person ahead of
them and they asked if they were allowed to help on certain parts which
was awesome.
2. What parts of the lesson were less effective? What didnt go as well in your
teaching? What evidence can you provide?
I didnt like the downtime the students who were further in the back had
before the problem got to them.
I thought that having the person in front be a helper would make up for
this but there was still some significant down time.
Although the students all loved the relay race and participated it still took
much longer than I would have liked. They just barely finished the first
problem.
3. What aspects of the lesson did not go as planned? How did you address this?
Provide support.
They only finished the first problem.
I let them continue even if the person ahead was incorrect and I let that
go for a while but I eventually corrected them and told them if they were
wrong because they were struggling not knowing where the mistakes
were sand they began to pile up from early mistakes.
4. If you were to teach this lesson again, what would you change or do
differently? Why?
I would find a way to incorporate all of the students with less downtime
between problems.
I would start by making them have the answer correct before passing the
problem on.
5. What insights did you gain from teaching this lesson?
Races work well with math but you have to be careful because minor
error are made when working fast and it can cause confusions in
understanding and further misconceptions.
