A student answers, “a ground hog.” A classmate answers, “a woodchuck.” This brings up the discussion if the animals are the same or not.

Strengths of the Lesson

The students were excited with the topics that Emily offered for them to use in their writings.

The content of the lesson of facts and opinions was thoroughly covered.

Emily moved around the classroom as students completed and shared their facts and opinions.

Emily allowed time for students to share their facts and opinions with their classmates.

Emily admitted that she didn’t know everything about two topics during the class discussion and encouraged student research to find
answers to the questions.

The penmanship lesson, as a class starter, following lunch and recess, was very effective.

Areas for Growth

Consider how you might develop a smoother transition between the opening reading of hibernation and migration, and your follow-up
work with facts and opinions.

Continue to work on developing your voice. How might it sound differently when you need to keep students focused?

Is there any literature/ story/ book that you might be able to use to connect the elements of this lesson?

Continue to reflect and develop your structure of writing lessons.

Specifics to focus on for the next observation
