Today I taught a settlement lesson - the HOF and a CSU person was in the classroom. It was so nerve racking! I was not prepared for it thats for sure. I struggled with:
- getting students attention
- timing of tasks (I had more lesson than tasks!!)
- I was all over the classroom
I felt like I was completing for their attention. And I think with two other people in classroom I just got more and more nervous as the time went on.
What I learnt:
- give time limits for how long they have to do things
- Make sure when i say "3 mins on this task" I am actually giving them 3 mins!
- wait until I have everyone attention BEFORE giving instructions
- make sure I stand at the front so everyone can hear me!
