Native Tribe Project Reflection:

For this project, we did not have time to complete with our groups as a jigsaw style assignment. If I were to complete this project, I would have looked forward to working with my co-teachers. It's great to see what other people are thinking in comparison to my own thoughts of the topic. Overall, I think this project is great because it contains many aspects of teaching social studies such as geography and artifacts. Learning about a new culture can spark interest in many students or even allow them to relate and share stories. 


Current Event Practice Reflection:

As a class, we used a source called newsELA to read an article about Russia and Ukraine. Following the reading, we answered questions (quiz style) and completed a short answer question. I think that current events are very important for students to read about so they are aware of what goes on in our world!

For example, asking them if they knew some vocabulary words such as, revolution. I enjoyed the teachers introductions and liked how the beginning of their lesson got the students thinking what the lesson could be about. For group work, the teachers pre-selected groups for students to complete the task with directions given, and teachers observed the groups. Group work demonstrated social skills and it seemed to have went well. While watching informational videos and listening to the teachers explain about the Texas Revolution, students were responsible to take their own notes. At the end of the lesson, students presented their work and did a great job! I enjoy seeing their work and hearing what they have to say. There were a lot
