Focused on why its --:00 minutes.
Doing 3 steps for reading the time.
Well prepared lesson and creative activities.
Good end for the lesson.
Areas for development:
When you were reading the minutes by counting by 5s you could keep minutes on the
clock missing.
You could ask the sts to show you the clock then put it down when it correct, this will
help you follow the sts performance.
In the lesson plan be careful about the right place to write the lesson plan phases.
Students reflection on the feedback ( submit after 2 days form the day of the
observation- Wednesday 14th March 2018)
On Sunday, 11th March, I presented a lesson for Ms. Alya Alzaabi about reading o’clock
and half hour from the clock. I will analyze the positive points of my lesson. I think that
my lesson was completive because of my good lesson planning even that I have some
mistakes in the organization. The section that I preferred about my lesson that I did a
good job in the engagement section when I worked in the students brainstorming by
applying a listening activity by opening a clock voice to introduce them to the main lesson.
I noticed from my previous weeks teaching this class that the majority of the students
are auditory because of that I started the lesson by applying a listening activity to
attract their attention from the beginning of the class. I also liked the evaluation section
by applying the memory game for connecting the number with the key term of the number
because they have to make a connection to help them match the information together
and then understand well. I always focus more in the activities that I applied at the
beginning and the end of the class because these two points prepare the students to the
main lesson and help them find the lesson with the important points that they need from
the whole class.
On the other hand, I like that you wrote 3 areas of development because this is will help
me learn from my mistakes and give a better lesson next time. Also, I believe that the
person itself can’t see his areas of development so, having these observations give the
student’s teacher the chance to focus in small details that can improve the level of the
lesson. You mentioned that I forgot some points, so, I decided to write down all the
important points that I have to focus on during the class to remember it while I’m
teaching also, as you mentioned I think that I should focus on the student's performance
by giving them the chance to work more during the activities. Moreover, selecting
suitable time for the activities contribute in increasing student's productivity. I also
think that putting lesson phases in the correct place is important because this will help
teachers in arranging and organizing the lesson.

Strengths of the lesson:
Very good start in the begging of the lesson with the pillows. However, the engagement
part was very short, you moved to the core directly.
Very creative and wonderful activities.
You check the students work and asked them questions to check their knowledge.
Great activity to end up the lesson. (lock and key)
Areas for development:
Keep the method that you explained to the student the same, follow the same steps.
Great job Maryam, I am proud of you and I assure you that you will
be a great Math teacher
Students reflection on the feedback: ( submit after 2 days form the day of the
observation – Monday 19th March 2018)
On Thursday, 15th March, I presented a lesson for Ms. Alya Alzaabi about halving numbers.
I will discuss the positive points of my lesson. I think that my lesson was completive because
of the creative activities that match the students level, especially that I focused on the
differentiation strategy. I gave a variety of activities for the three different levels high,
middle and low. An important point that I want to mention that some of the students in my
class considered as student’s that have difficulties in learning, so, my MST consider them
as special needs student’s that needs different system in giving activities.
What I liked more about my lesson that I identify instructional practice by using teacher
directed questions and answers by assisting student’s knowledge while they are working. I
also did a good job in the engagement part at the beginning of the lesson because I connect
between the lesson and the real life by using examples from real materials such as pillows
even though it was short and I need to extend it in the next time. I also prefer the
evaluation section because I used the lock and key activity to check students
understanding. I think that if you love what you do, you will do it in a better way. I like
Math, so, I enjoyed preparing for the activities.
On the other hand, I liked that you wrote that I should follow specific instructions while
I’m explaining to give students the ability to follow the same steps. I believe that if the
students follow the same steps each time, they will give the work a strong quality because
they will apply it well. Also, this can reflect positivity in the lesson’s level because it will
provide more time. And this is will help in fixing my time management, especially that I will
have the chance to add more practices to the lesson which can improve the level of the
students.
