Productive Pedagogies, Bloom’s Taxonomies, Habits of Mind)ĭeep Understanding – Students were transforming their new knowledge in the game 3d shape heads, strengthening their understanding of different features of 3d shapes. Some students could be ready to extend their knowledge further and begin thinking about nets of 3d shapes, plan a fast finishers activity for these students to challenge their learning. How were authoritative pedagogies supported?įocus on edges, corners and faces more next lesson. Goes to show that even some of the basic concepts can be forgotten without practice! It was careless of me not to familiarize myself with the content of the learning before teaching it. It was pointed out to me by my mentor (after the lesson) that I had referred to a rectangular prism incorrectly. (If I was to teach this lesson again what would I change and why?)

#Solid shapes lesson how to
Students had already mastered the names of 3d shapes and knew how to identify these. The features of 3d shapes and how to identify these are becoming very clear to all students. (Self-evaluation of learning experience outcomes) How could this lesson be improved for next time? Students describe the features of three-dimensional objects (faces, edges, corners)ĭid students learn what they were supposed to? Students identify and name some familiar three-dimensional objects. Lesson Objective: What specific part of Learning Experience does this lesson aim to develop? A good objective must indicate “Given what, Do what, How well?” What is the learning experience / broad issue / concept / focus of the learning from the unit that this lesson relates to? Show the children how to form equal-sized balls of clay (about the size of large peas).

I was lucky to read emails from uni let alone go and have a look to see what people were blogging about, however I was reflecting on my lessons so I may as well post some of those reflections Step 3: Engage children in lesson activities. I really don’t know how we were meant to keep up with blogging whilst on prac.
