Week Four

Since we only had one day in the schools this week that obviously is the only day I will be talking about. We went through are normal routine with nothing out of the ordinary. We helped them as the class read through their story and then I worked with the young girl that I have been the whole time and it went about the same as it always does. Well she might have been a little more off in her own little world that day. After lunch we went to another title one reading class and it was alright. The methods the title one teacher used were effective but rather boring so it was hard to sit there.

Week Three

Well this reflection is going to sound much like the first since we are on a set routine every day. I have been helping one student on a consistent basis during their silent reading time. She is below grade level but in my opinion is improving with the help she is receiving by all of her teachers. The one part of the day I do not enjoy is reading groups. During this time of the day the students move to different classrooms based on their ability and then basically do test prep for second graders. I understand why they need to do it but that does not mean I have to like it.

Week Two

Reading is a huge part of our day as I said in my post one week ago so I see plenty of reading at any point of the day. I noticed certain techniques this week such as guided reading, partner reading and a KWL. This week I got to experience going with a certain student to the title one reading teacher to see her reading instruction with this teacher. I really found this interesting because I want to do something of that nature the last 5 or so years of my teaching career. It was really unique and interesting the way the teacher went through her tasks having the children sound out the words.
