Observations from 9/30/09

Today I shadowed Teacher C, a shop and science support teacher at the local friends school where  Teachers A and B teach.  Today, Teacher C had a group of 6 kindergarteners that he was taking around the grounds of the school.  They were looking at the various gardens on the grounds.  Teacher C feels like for students of this age, a teacher must define vocabulary and bring it down to their level.   He has students engage in drawing and coloring activities to see what they have observed in the gardens.

Today I was again observing Teacher A's 5th and 6th grade class.  Their school is currently focusing on the theme of community.  So, while some students worked on other things, Brie and I led some of the students through Bubbleology, a lesson presented to us in the Inquiry Science institute this summer by Joyce Theriot.
