1) One of the most important things that I noticed in Mrs. Terrett’s classroom that demonstrates an environment of respect and rapport is that she expresses high expectations for learning. The students exhibited respect for their teacher by quietly listening and following her instructions, and Mrs. Terrett checked on each student with care and attention. To assist the students who needed help or those who were making noise, Mrs. Terrett would simply talk to them quietly at their desk to show them respect and avoid embarrassing them in front of the class.
2) One of the routines that Mrs. Terret has incorporated into the beginning of each class is having the students write their math homework assignment in their school planners. As the students …show more content…

Terrett told the class that she would give good behavior tickets to students who got the answers to questions 7 & 8 right. One of the students, Wyatt asked Mrs. Terrett how many tickets she would have to give out if the whole class got both answers right. Mrs. Terrett responded by turning the question into a teaching moment. She asked the students if there are 27 students in this classroom and everyone earned 2 tickets each, how many tickets would she have to give out?

• Modeling- The teacher wrote on the board what she wanted the students to write in their math journals. This was appropriate for third graders to help them develop note taking skills.

• Independent practice- Students were given several different problems to solve on their own. Students at this age should be able to work independently.

    Students would learn and become familiar with the Order of Operations and understand that they must do the work that is in the parentheses before continuing with the remainder of the problem. Another fun activity that the students could do for independent practice is ‘Fact Family Homes’. For this activity, students would be given three numbers; 2, 5, and 7; they would practice the addition first- 2+5=7 and 5+2=7 and then the subtraction- 7-2=5 and 7-5=2. The teacher would make six of these little homes on a worksheet and have different numbers and equations for the students to solve. One more activity that I would have the students work on to help retain the Commutative property of addition is a cut and paste worksheet.
