Clinical Field Experience C: Literacy Activity Implementation

     

    There is never enough practice for implementing activities. Each time a lesson is taught, a teacher learns something new about effective teaching practices through self-reflection, especially when implementing multiple content areas in one lesson for cross-disciplinary instruction.

     

    Allocate at least 5 hours in the field to support this field experience.

     

    Part 1: Implementation

     

    For this field experience, you will deliver the literacy activity you created in Topic 2, or a lesson of your mentor’s choice, to a small group of students that your mentor teacher has selected. Remember to focus on:

     

    • Instructional strategies for literacy development.
    • Differentiation, including accommodations to meet the diverse needs of students.
    • Creating engagement and promoting discussion.

     

    Part 2: Mentor Feedback

     

    After your implementation, ask your mentor teacher the following:

     

    • How effectively did I integrate literacy into the activity?
    • Were students engaged?
    • How effectively did I meet the needs of all students?
    • What did I do well and what can I do better?

     

    Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the mentor teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.

     

    Part 3: Personal Reflection

     

    • How did I integrate literacy in the activity?
    • Did students demonstrate the concepts of the activity? How?
    • How did I differentiate by using resources and/or technology to make necessary accommodations in the activity?
    • What do I feel went well in the class and what might have gone better?
    • How did I know if the students met the learning objective of the activity?
    • What would my next steps be for my future practice?

     

    Write a reflection of 250-500 words summarizing your implementation experience, mentor’s feedback, and your personal reflection.

     

    APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
