Today is our observed lesson. Leia did a great job with her postcard lesson for the month, and I did my math game Pigs, which went well I thought also. We both did fine on the field instructors assessment, and she provided some great feedback, and tips on class management. The game of Pig was used to accomplished two objectives, mental math, and an introduction to probability. The probability I spoke about in the context of taking changes, and risk with this dice throwing game. I would liken the game to craps for kids. These are some of the following points my field instructor made:
- Focus on only one or two objectives.
- Focus on chance, and risk which are terms children at this age would associate with.
- Focus on what you want them to know, what you want them to look for, and what you want them to listen for.
