Day #31

Today I observed another first grade teacher's writing lesson. The whole team of first grade teachers has been following the plan of a book titled No More "I'm Done!" This teacher is currently doing her masters programs and this book was given to her by a professor. The book is a wonderful resource for primary grades starting writing. I enjoyed my observation of this teacher because of her enthusiasm and eagerness. Her attitude spreads to her students and I could tell they love writing time. She modeled in detail her expectations. The students understood exactly what they were to do. She also reviewed what they were to do during the writing time. I could tell though that they knew exactly what to do.

She knew the program and lesson well. Her happy attitude was contagious, it made me want to write!
