Lesson: Teaching APA style and discussing the essay assignment.
This class consisted of a small group of 3 students. The class was a 5th-level academic reading class. The objective of this lesson was to either introduce or help students with citations. Students were also expected to read a short story for their assignment before class, so part of the class was given for students to discuss aspects of the story.
This was the second time teaching this material however this time it was prepared for a much smaller group which made it much more personal. Due to the small class size, I could sit down with students and work with them to answer questions they had about a worksheet or resolve any confusion they had about citations.
This class focused primarily on discussing topics and working through a worksheet.
This class was far from what I was used to but I relished the ability to work closely with students making sure they are engaged and that they fully grasped the material they were learning. It was a pleasant way of moving teacher talk from the front of the class to a small group together at one table.
