Lesson Planning

Hello all!
     I think lesson planning is vital to the classroom because it helps the class flow as well as keep the teacher in line on what it next for the class.  When I say flows, I mean that it provides the teacher with steps on what he/she needs to cover for a specific subject.  The teacher needs to be able to follow along with Bloom's Taxonomy to ensure that there is creativity, evaluation, analyzing, application, understanding and remembering within the plan for the students.  With the creativity, the students will remember what is being taught; evaluating will tell the teach what the students know or not know pertaining to that information; analyzing will break down the information to the students; applying the information will again help the students understand and remember the information which are the last two for the taxonomy; understanding the information for a specific subject helps the teacher know that the students will remember (being the final step); remembering the information is the overall step of the taxonomy. 
    Another reason that lesson planning is vital to the classroom is so that if for some reason the students are not understanding the information then the teacher could change up the lesson plan to assist them in understanding.  The lesson plans should be guided toward the students and what is best for them in remembering the information.

    I agree with what you have said! I also think it's important for teachers to have lesson plans and materials prepared in case of a subsitute. You never know when you're going to wake up sick, so it's always good to have a plan in place in advance!

    I like that you included Bloom's taxonomy into your post because I believe that those are important steps that need to be taken in order for the student to be successful in learning each subject. I agree with you on using lesson plans to help students that are struggling, because it is for the betterment of the child that we are teaching in the first place, right?!

    I love the Bloom's picture. These are such important things to remember. Great work.

EDUC 337 Week # 4

Hello group!      I really wish I would have known we were going to use this particular subject for our blog post because I have one heck of a "I did not get my way" story.  I will start in 2012 when I got out of the Marine Corps, I served 13 years, took that summer off to relax and hang out with my son.  I started my college adventure that fall, I loaded up on classes and pushed through to complete my associates degree after four semesters.  I had my daughter in January of 2014 so I was only in one class for that spring semester but was able to push through to more courses that summer and fall.  Spring of 2015, I was almost finished with my education courses I needed but this is when everything fell apart.      I was rocking and rolling toward my bachelors degree and finishing all of my schooling, so excited and could not wait to start teaching.  It all changed that Mother's day with a phone call from my mother in law (Linda), she decided that day she was going to sle

Class Reflection #1

Hello class! I enjoyed meeting everyone new tonight and those of you that were in previous classes.  I also enjoyed hearing about everyone's favorite teacher.  Most of the class definitely has had some very positive individuals that have helped to guide them into teaching or had a very positive role model.  I think it is awesome to have some of the same experiences as I have had throughout my college courses.  It is fun to hear everyone's adventures!

EDUC 337 Post # 3

Hello group!      As always, I enjoyed class tonight!  By going over word walls and having a quick thought on creating a lesson plan really got my mind going.  I really enjoyed that because it was a quick learning tool that opened my eyes to very different words and how to use them in a classroom.       Creating a mini lesson plan about a writing lesson almost blew my mind though!  I felt like we needed about 15 more minutes but I was able to learn a lot about thinking quickly on my feet about different teaching ideas used during this assignment.       Unfortunately, technology was not our friend last night so the last portion of class was pretty confusing so I plan on going back over the power point to make sure I do not miss out on anything.  I think I have my unit lessons planned in my head, I have started my 100 questions and I hope to start/finish a lot this weekend.  We will see.  :-) *You all may be getting a bit tired of hearing/reading about my 4 year old but I am really
