1. What steps did you go through to create this lesson? With whom did you talk, discuss, or edit
your lesson?
I talked with my CT beforehand and we discussed the different lessons that I could teach for the
next week. She gave me the history textbook and showed me what I could go off of.

2. How did the SOLs and Objectives help focus your instruction?
It helped me know exactly what I needed to teach them and what I needed to base my lesson off
of.

3. What parts of the instructional plan worked as you anticipated?

Every part worked just as I thought it would. The children loved the quizlet live that I made for
them to participate in. They are excited by the thrill of working with their friends and trying to
win.
4. What, if any, adjustments needed to be made once you began?
I actually did not have to make any adjustments for this lesson.

5. How well did you anticipate the materials needed?

The only materials I needed was the textbooks, and they were inside the classroom.
6. How effective was the assessment you chose to use? (If no assessment was used, what
will the future assessment be and how will you gauge its effectiveness?)

The students did well on the assessment, although some of the questions confused them.

7. To what degree do you feel that this lesson was a success? What evidence do you have
for the success of the lesson? (Hint: Student learning is the key to a lesson’s success!)

I feel it was a success because of the scores the students got on their assessments, and how they
knew the answers when we did a review the following day. They usually do pretty well on the
review.

8. How did the time spent preparing for your lesson contribute to its success?
I feel like I could’ve come up with a better lesson if I had more time.
9. If you could do this lesson again with the same students, would you do anything
differently? If so, what?
If I could do anything differently, I would prepare a YouTube video to show them

10. Any last comments/reflections about your lesson?

I can tell that I will be teaching about history in the future because of the amount of fun that I had with
this lesson.
