Spelling Bee

Westwood:
On Thursday at Westwood i had to do things for the teacher like cut paper and glue it onto a folder because the students were having a spelling bee so thats what i did at westwood.

Alternative Assignments:
Alternative assignments are a good idea if a student is absent the day of the test or just need to make i tup for whatever reason bc they aren't able to copy other students answers and its in a different format that way the student can still be accountable for what they learned and how much they paid attention.

Yesterday at westwood i was helping the students with an area activity. They had to find the area of different things by using bunny marshmallows. After they did that activity they got into their word work groups and and my group played jepordy. While my group played jepordy i had to separate papers for the teacher. It was a good day at Westwood. Assessments are used to test students on what they are learning and to see how much each students knows so the teacher can help the students that need to be helped. The students in my class have been assesed by being"quized" on certain things such as additon. The students have been doing this since the first semester and it has helped them a lot because some students have learned so much by doing that.

A Very Productive Day At Westwood

I had a very productive day yesterday when i went to westwood. The students needed help with the activities they were doing. After that they had to go on the floor and listen to what the teacher taught on the active board. While they were on the floor i graded papers. When i was done with that they were ready to move on and do a measuring activity. As they did that i went around and helped the kids. When the kids got into their word work groups i graded papers and then i assembled booklets that the students were going to do later on. I would have to say that yesterday was a very productive day at westwood .

Westwood on Thursday :)

When I went to Westwood yesterday the kids were looking at different animals like snakes, walking sticks, and beetles for an assignement that they had been doing. I wasnt out there with them that much while they were looking at animals so I was cutting out laminated paper. After a while I went out there and helped them build a bird feeder and the kids had so much fun. When they were done with that assignment they had to do a clock assignment and I helped the kids that were behind put their clocks together. Overall it was kind of tiring but fun at the same time and i feel like I got a taste of what a teacher really goes through. In my classroom there are some students that are a little behind everyone else so the teacher has them in a group  and she spends extra time with them until they learn that certain concept. If I were a teacher I would handle it the same way as she did because it helps the students understand that concept better.
