Observation--ayuda

by Carolina

Mar 2, 2016

I will be observed tomorrow and we just took a test. Tomorrow I am presenting see and estar. I usually introduce this unit by having them take notes on a handout. Side by side. I I have an acronym I use DOCTOR PLACE and we write what each letter stands for and a sentence in Spanish as an example. I don't want to be observed feeding information. What are some suggestions as to what to do after we take notes. They like to see constant formative assessment. I'd like to do an exit ticket to. Any brilliant minds want to chime in? GRACIAS y ruegan por mí.

Allison Someone gave me an idea that seems to work really well. You set up 6 different stations with desks in a circle. Have the students number off 1-6 to be put into 6 different groups. In the first station you can have them write the acronyms over and over until they have them memorized (I use small whiteboards for this but they could do it on paper too...See More

Carolina That is a pretty good idea. I may play with that.

I wish I had read this message sooner! Station learning is the best! I have set up stations for my formal observations and have always gotten high scores due to the fact that you can create different ways to achieve your lesson objectives. It's a lot of prep work but it is worth it because it can go on for a few days. I usually include 6 stations that cover reading, writing, listening, and speaking activities. I always include a technology station as well as a chat station. My students really like it and it keeps them engaged.
