Task 7

The science lesson observed focused on the excretory system. The teacher began with a greeting and review of the previous lesson on the digestive system through questions. A literature-based presentation was given on the key terms and processes of the excretory system with limited student engagement. No exploratory activities were included. The teacher monitored students by walking around but there was no formal review or recap before dismissing students. The observer noted a need for more active learning methods and assessment of understanding.
