 While the students work on their laptops, I will pull select students to the back of the room to
work through word problems. I will use the computer and the same program the other

Teacher Reflection

What worked well? Why?

What didn’t? Why not?
What would you do differently
next time to further promote
optimum learning for all
students?
Overall I feel the lesson went well. The online content and
technology worked as planned and the kids remained engaged.
Everything worked, but the transition from instruction to actually
logging in and playing the game took some extra time. I need to
remember that anything with technology will take an extra minute to
get up and running.
I feel I could have executed the plan better. Instead of having the
students type in the URL address, next time I will be sharing the URL
via google classrooms. This way the students can login and simply
click on the link.
