Part 2: Self-Evaluation / Reflection

Complete each question following the lesson activity implementation:

1. Overall, how would you rate the success of your lesson activity?
_____Fair ___X___Good _____Excellent

2. What specific parts of the activity were most successful? Provide 3 examples to support your
response.

One aspect that was most successful was keeping the children engaged. Many of the children were
excited to be doing this activity. We talked about thunderstorms that they have heard, how bright
lightening is and the sound that thunder makes.

3. Describe any difficulties or challenges you encountered.

Were you adequately planned and prepared?

One difficulty that I faced was only having one glue stick for the children to share. I was not
planned for this to happen since we had an entire basket yesterday full of glue sticks.

4. How would you address the difficulties and/or challenges if it happened again?

I would double check to make sure we have enough glue sticks the day before my lesson and if I knew
many of them were going to run out I will be sure to bring some with me.

5. Additional thoughts, insights, reflections:

I enjoy being able to share the excitement with the children as we do activities together.
