1. Math Lesson
4th Grade - Mrs. Normand
By Maddy Bozarth

2. I Chose This Lesson for 3 Reasons:
1. As a whole, the lesson was successful.
2. It opened my eyes to the steps I have to take before I begin an activity
to avoid behavior issues.
3. It is where I learned, first hand, that I need to accommodate for more
advanced students so they can constantly be challenged, not bored.

4. Chocolate Chip Method
e.g. 5x?=20

5. Student Grouping Activity
5x4=20

6. Reflection
1. As a whole, the lesson was successful.
● After teaching my lesson, I was very confident that the students had
grasped the material.
● Most of them received 90%-100% on their worksheets. (Gotta have
that data!)

7. Reflection
2. This lesson opened my eyes to the steps I have to take before I begin
an activity to avoid behavior issues.
● There is about a 2:1 ratio of boys to girls in this class, so these
students can be very off-task and active. I made sure I clearly
explained the rules and expectations of each activity before we started
them. I also asked questions about my instructions to make sure the
students understood what was expected of them. This makes it easier
to re-direct them if they are off task (e.g. “Johnny, you know that our
noise level needs to be at a whisper, so please quiet down”).

3. This lesson is where I learned, first hand, that I need to accommodate
for more advanced students so they can constantly be challenged,
not bored.
● After the lesson, I gave the students a worksheet. Three students
finished within minutes and I did not have anything else for them to
work on. They read silently, but I learned just how diverse these 22
learners are, even though they are at the same age level. I now know
to have more advanced things for these students to work on if they
ever finish early again, which is highly possible.
