Mini Lesson #2

Today, we started our mini lesson on vocabulary. Although I didnt get to present today, I was able to participate as a student for two presenters. This mini lesson activity was very interesting to be apart of because we learn from our peers on there ideas for the mini lesson and how they execute their lesson to us.

The first person who presented was Rachel. She introduced words from her story to us and explained what each word meant. She then read her story to us and after the story she asked us if we saw any of the vocabulary words listed on the board. She ended the lesson by giving us a word, drawing what the word meant to us, and having the class guess what our word was.

The second one that presented was Jen. She made us choose 3 words that were on a lollipop stick and on the stick part was the definition for the word. She had us take turns by saying the word and definition for the word. She wrote down each word that we said on the board. She then read her story to us and after the story she asked us what words we saw in the story were on the board. She ended her lesson by having us write a story using 5 words from the list on the board.

I really enjoyed both of their lesson. I learned mini lessons that I could use in my future classroom. Good job ladies, you did awesome!
