Effective instruction takes practice and continued adjustment from the teacher.

Effective instruction takes practice and continued adjustment from the teacher. Each time a lesson is taught, a teacher learns something new about effective teaching practices through self-reflection, especially when implementing multiple content areas in one lesson for cross-disciplinary instruction. Continuing to practice and receive feedback from other experienced teachers is an important part of a teacher’s professional practice.
Allocate at least 5 hours in the field to support this field experience.
Part 1: Literacy Activity Implementation
For this field experience, deliver the literacy activity you created with your mentor in Topic 3, or a lesson of your mentor’s choice, to the whole class or a small group of students that your mentor has selected. Remember to focus on:
Instructional strategies for literacy development.
Differentiation, including accommodations to meet the diverse needs of students.
Creating engagement and promoting discussion.
If possible, implement the activity with multiple class periods or groups. After each implementation, meet with your mentor and reflect on any adjustments you may need to make before working with the next group.
Part 2: Mentor Feedback
After your implementation, ask your mentor the following:
How effectively did I integrate literacy into the activity?
Were students engaged?
How effectively did I meet the needs of all students?
What did I do well and what can I do better?
Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the mentor in providing instruction and support to the class.
Part 3: Personal Reflection
Write a reflection in 500-750 words summarizing your implementation experience, mentor’s feedback, and your reflection. Address the following in your reflection:
How did I integrate literacy into the activity?
How did I know if the students met the learning objective of the activity?
How did I differentiate by using resources and/or technology to make necessary accommodations in the activity?
What do I feel went well in the class and what might have gone better?
What adjustments were made between implementations or need to be made before the activity is implemented with another group of students?
What would my next steps be for working with the group or groups of students?
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
