Reach for the stars!

 

Today I helped students create this because they are learning about the planets, stars and constellations. This was a simple project that they were able to do, a hands on project to learn about The Great Bear constellation.  

Independent Component 2

Content:  
LITERAL
(a) I, Stephanie Marin affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
(b) I completed my Independent Component Two hours by doing extra hours at my mentorship which is at San Jose School with Lourdes Garay my mentor.
(c)  Independent Component Two hours
(d) By completing my hours at my mentorship I was able to get more experience with working with students. I was able to learn from my mentor how to handle different situations for example, what to do when a student doesn't want to put any effort in participating in class. I  also got to work with another third grade teacher, Mrs. Anderson which was refreshing. I saw how she handled different situations and taught differently form my mentor. I was able to work with groups of students that needed extra help in understanding a certain problem or on a concept. Although the pictures I have included not show me working with students since I am not allowed to take pictures of them I included pictures of other tasks I did such as help prepare for different activities or simply showcase students work.
INTERPERTIVE
As I said before I was able to work with two teachers who helped me by allowing me to work with the students and experience first hand how to handle various situations.
APPLIED
How did the component help you answer your EQ? Please include specific examples to illustrate how it helped. This Component helped me answer my EQ because I am able to use my experience at my mentorship to explain my answers for example, expatiations is one of them. It's important to make sure the students know what you expect of them. My mentor hands tickets as a reward for staying on task which they could use to gets prizes; my mentor gave me the ability to give students these which showed me that students who are rewarded or even thanked for staying on task helps them follow directions which decreases disruptions.
