Lesson 4

Lesson 4-
Objective: Student will be able to understand interactions between a story and her life.  Student will be able to identify and understand individual traits




Overview: Today, we did another formal lesson making an acrostic poem.  It was difficult for my student to find words at first until I suggested more for her.  We ended up having to get a second book to have enough words to make the acrostic poem.

Student learned/struggled with: finding enough words for her acrostic poem- partially because her name is a longer name.

What I learned about myself as a teacher: I learned that I need to reflect on student reading level and the number of words in a book at the student's level. Perhaps next time I will pre-read several stories (at student's reading level) and select a large list of words (enough to give student 2-3 options for each letter of her name/acrostic poem) prior to the lesson.
