Details and Links

Student teaching dates March 26 th to June 8 th (you take your spring break with your school)  

Lesson plans: outlines

Each Friday PM:  outlines of your lesson plans for upcoming week due to faculty

An outline of your teaching plans for the upcoming week must be shared with your cooperating teacher and emailed to your faculty, with at least 2 ideas your cooperating teacher has asked to you consider for those lessons, by Friday (5PM). The outline should include at the least your learning objectives and relevant activities that address the objectives.

Lesson plans: complete

Each Monday AM: complete lesson plans due to faculty

A list of the required lesson plan components can be found page 13 of the Student Teaching Handbook, Section 1. Lesson plans must be shared at least two days before teaching with your cooperating teacher. The purpose of sharing the lesson plan is to give you enough time to incorporate their feedback, and to thoughtfully reflect on and revise the lesson plan.

Lesson plans: reflections

 

Reflections about each lesson taught are to be added to your lesson plan, to include some discussion about the degree to which you reached your student learning objectives and what it is you learned or will do differently based on your experience teaching this lesson. Keep copies of your lessons and reflections in your student teaching portfolio.

Seminar

Each Monday 4-6pm

Meet in D1107, unless otherwise indicated by faculty.

 

 

For all seminars: be prepared to bring in materials (lesson plans, reflections, etc.) that may be requested by the faculty

Preparing for faculty observations

 

For each of your scheduled observations (4-5 this quarter) have a copy of your seating chart and your lesson plan printed and placed where you would like your faculty observer to sit. Also, let the faculty know what, in particular, you would like him/her to observe and take note of during that particular lesson.
