Reflection on lesson
- Overall, I think this lesson went very well. During the guided practice portion of this lesson, I gave my
students scenario cards and had them work in groups to separate them into primary and secondary
sources. I walked around the room and facilitated conversation and helped as needed. Students seemed
to really enjoy this, and enjoyed sharing out their answers and a reason to back them up. Having the
students connect these sources to their everyday lives allowed them to have a more practical use for the
information they had been given. After the guided practice was discussed, I then gave a few more
examples and had the students decipher which were primary, and which were secondary. Once that was
complete, I gave students an exit ticket to be completed independently. I took those up and had the
students work on a quizizz until everyone was complete. The majority of the students did really well on
the exit ticket, which made me feel that the lesson was successful.
