My fourth hour of teaching took place on Valentine’s Day. This was also the first lesson that I created every aspect of by myself. My other experiences teaching prior to this were planned or partially planned by my sponsor teachers. Planning every aspect of this lesson from finding a reading for the students outside of the textbook to making the worksheets about that reading was an interesting experience for me. I feel that this hour, in particular, stands out to me as it is in my mind the first time I actually stepped into the role of a teacher. Throughout the class students were given the reading I found regarding Valentine’s Day and asked to answer some comprehension questions while reading. Following the comprehension questions students were given a timed task in which they had to certain words from the reading, before lastly ending with a crossword puzzle. Overall I feel that the class was a success, although I was incredibly nervous while actually teaching the class. I feel that the majority of my nervousness came from the comprehension questions activity. Although my sponsor teacher had reviewed every aspect of my lesson including the comprehension questions I felt very nervous about this activity as while walking around the classroom it seemed like many of the students were struggling with the questions asked. While going over the questions I later realized that this was not entirely the case and felt much more relaxed for the rest of the time I spent teaching that day. I think that the most important things I learned during this class were to trust the student’s abilities and to also feel comfortable challenging them.
