Planes: Lesson Plans



Today we finished our lesson plans and peer edited them. Coming up with a lesson plan for teaching Spanish to Elementary level students gave me so much anticipation for what my job might look like in the future. It was fun trying to come up with creative and innovative ideas for a lesson plan. The layout on the computer was also very helpful in organizing my ideas and making sure it met all the requirements. It was a lot of work trying to fill it all out, but it taught me that lesson plans have to be carefully thought through in order to be most successful for teaching.

The peer editing process was extremely helpful. It was good to get feedback and gave me more confidence about my ideas. The other students in this classroom will one day be my colleagues in the teaching world. It is so helpful to get input from people who are all passionate about educating kids but all have their own ideas to bring to the table. This assignment has prepared me more for being a teacher than any other ever has. It was applicable and informative but in a fun and creative way.
