Fractions

When i went into my classroom at westwood the students were doing an activity with a partner but it didnt take long until they were done with that and were ready to move on to a different activity. They had to take a little "quiz" and the teacher would help students and make them correct the answeres they got wrong. Three students would call out my name "Ms. Joann" because they needed help so i went over and helped them until they were done. When they finished that they had to get into word work and the students played jepordy like they do every thursday.

Objectives

When i was at Westwood yesterday there were objectives that the teacher had. One of them was to teach the students a lesson about fractions. She told the students to go to the floor and she taught them how to find out the denominator and how to find out the numerator. When she finished teaching the lesson she planned an activity for the students to do. They were told to make a burger and make fractions for each part. After the lesson of the day they always go to word work, the objective every thursday is to play jepordy on the active board so the students got into their teams and started to do what they needed to do.
