This Wednesday was my second class observation. Taking place in the computer lab, the teacher was showing students how to research topics for a persuasive essay. The students had already begun to brainstorm some topics and been exposed to this persuasive style writing. To facilitate this process, the teacher wrote a few ideas on the board and began to walk around the room answering questions. She provided a rubric to clearly demonstrate the content requirements, as well as a planning sheet outline to organize the ideas. All in all, this class observation showed me the importance of giving students clear guidelines and how to demonstrate topics to avoid confusion.
