Reflection

On Sunday, October 19, 2020, my lesson was about the food web for grade 3 in the
first period. In this lesson. The students were able to construct a food web and describe what
is a food web.

At the beginning of my lesson, I checked a student’s prior knowledge about by


showing them pictures about the food chain and ask them questions all the students respond
with me.In this part of my lesson, I used John Dewey theory which believes that prior
knowledge impacts the learning process. I encouraged them all the time by showing pictures
that help them to understand the questions in an easy way. Then, I showed the new
vocabulary in the lesson. They told the meaning of words in their language Arabic. Some of
them told me in Arabic while others told me in English, but I accepted their answers. Every
one told in his or her way. this method helps the students to understand before the teacher
explains the lesson because they can understand all the vocabulary what the means the
teacher during the explain lesson. In this stage of the lesson, I used Schema theory by Piaget
in vocabulary learning. They would use their prior knowledge to guess the meaning of new
words using pictures that I showed in the class.

The next part of the lesson came to the video; it was the video of the lesson about the
food web. I encouraged them to participate in the lesson using new vocabulary and asking
questions. I chose students randomly to answer the questions. All of them could answer the
questions. Moreover, I used a brainstorming question to motivate them. They were very
active in the class.

However, the activities appeared as the most successful part as I divided my students
into three different groups according to their levels, the levels were Emergent, Development,
and Master activities. All of them were links by using WordWall and Quiz program. these
activities measured a specific level. All students are able to respond with me and get the
correct answer. They all were enjoying the class.
Finally, the period finished, all of us were very interested in the science class that has
a lot of information. Here, many goals were achieved starting from the plant life cycle and
ending with the quiz where the students were able to understand and absorb the lesson. There
were many strategies used. Next time, I would vary the sources of educational materials and
will not use only one I will use several programs except online or without such as
PowerPoint. I also must put backup copies of the video and games on my computer in order
to be able to manage the time in the lesson without any problem related to technology.
