Summary

I plan most of my lesson plans based on collaboration with classmates. This helps students understand the importance of working as a team and improve social skills. I'm excited to work with building and improving relationships with students as we learn to become better learners as well as better citizens in this world.

EDUC-202

  • EDUC-202 was more of an observation-based class.
  • I focused on building student-teacher relationships throughout given hours.
  • I observed how a classroom was managed including teacher gestures, transitions, and classroom management (behavior).

EDUC-115

Buchanan Elementary School
Grand Rapids, MI
02.2024 - 04.2024
  • A one-on-one tutoring session with first-grade students. The tutoring session focused on teaching phonics.
  • A word wall was constructed to illustrate and showcase the student's favorite words during the span of the placement.
  • My main goal was to help students understand letter sounds and move on to the depths of phonics, including digraphs, diphthongs, and much more.
  • My second goal of the placement was to help students find the fun in reading literature. Most of the reading included a picture walk which is the process of looking at the pictures rather than the words/sentences on the page.
