Lesson 2 Reflection

1.What are you most proud of in your Lesson 2 Presentation and why?
I am most proud of my activity. I feel like people were genuinely discussing it and had an opinion about the different examples that I did.

2. a.     What assessment would you give yourself on your Lesson 2 Presentation (self-assessment)?

       AE       P          AP       CR       NC

     b.     Explain why you deserve that grade using evidence from the Lesson 2 component contract.
I would give my self a P because I met all the requirements, I made time, I was prepared and I knew my information
3. What worked for you in your Lesson 2?
  My activity worked really well.
4. What didn't work? If you had a time machine, what would you have done differently to improve your Lesson 2?
   I would have included more statistics and experiments that were done by professionals to prove my point
5. What do you think your answer #2 is going to be?

 

   Before children can start learning they need to form a strong attachment to someone so my second answer would be "In order for a child to have strong cognitive development they must spend the first two years of their life with a parent or family member."

Blog 12: Mentorship 10 hour check

1.   Where are you doing your mentorship?
         I am doing my mentorship at Campus Kids Day Care.
2.   Who is your contact?
       My Mentors name is Adrian. 
3.   How many total hours have you done (total hours should be reflected in your mentorship log located on the right hand side of your blog like your WB)?
       I have done a total of 58 hours and 3 minutes.
4.   Summarize the 10 hours of service you did.
     When I get to my mentorship the kids who are already are in Elementary school get out so I help serve them a snack. After that the kids go outside to burn off energy. While everyone is outside I privately tutor twin girls sam and alex. They struggle a little bit more than the other kids so it gives me a chance to focus on them so they are getting the best help. then I help the kids with homework while Ms.Adrian does craft time with the kids who don't have any.

Blog 11: Holiday Project Update

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you do over the break with your senior project?
    Over my winter break I focused on my independent component 1. As part of the final product I will turn in I am doing a portfolio that will include all of the activities that I have done with my students throughout these last couple of months.

2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why?  What was the source of what you learned?
One of the most important lessons that I have learned from the work I've done is that finding activities that teach children something as well as give them something fun to do after a long day at school. Since the children in my class are a large age range I have to be very picky about the activities that I do.
3.  If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers for your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
  If I had to do a 10 question interview I would interview the director of the the day care where I do my hours. The reason is that she has been working in the field so long that she has valuable experiences and a different perspective than most of the teachers I work with. She was a day care teacher before she became a director so she can give many different perspectives.
