Observation Two

Central Catholic High School

Sophomore Chemistry

5th Hour

Notes:

Reflection:

As the teacher was going through the notes, she was asking questions throughout her lecture.

This kept the students focused and engaged on the material. Also, she provided an incentive for correct answers. She gave the students plastic chips and at the end of the period, she awarded them points for how many chips they had. All students but one had a chip, which shows how effective this strategy is to get the students involved. The teacher used an overhead projector for notes and filled them out as the students did. She worked on practice problems with the students and used visuals to explain her definitions.
