    Lesson Teaching Reflective Summary

    Teacher Candidate for Science Endorsement: Janice Belcher


    School: Dowell Elementary

    Grade: Fourth

    Lesson Topic: Ecosystems- Lesson 1


    Write a brief summary or blog of your experiences teaching this lesson,
    addressing the following questions:

    What went well? What did not go well? (Cite specific examples)

    This lesson was an introductory lesson in my ecosystem unit. My


    student love the BrainPop video. I read the book Who is Eating Who?
    There were no major logistical issues with this lesson.

    How well were the lessons student performance objectives


    attained?

    I pre-assessed my student before the lesson to gage student


    understanding. The students will review key vocab words such as food
    chain, food web, prey, herbivore, carnivore, omnivore, Predator,
    scavenger, procedures, consumers, decomposers by using I have, who
    has game.

    Did classroom activity center on science understanding, inquiry,


    and sense-making by all students?

    In this lesson, students given pictures of different ecosystems.


    Students made observations about the pictures. Here are a few things
    they observed, Some things that I was from the image were deer,
    grass, water, trees, and rocks. Some interaction that might happen in
    this ecosystem are the deers might play, fight, and feed each other.
    We developed a definition of an ecosystem, environment where the
    same type of animals live together. Another one is a place that has a
    source of oxygen, food and water.

    Did your scientific content knowledge enable you to support


    students construction of knowledge and understanding of
    important scientific concepts and processes?

    My student were able to identify essential vocabulary and summarized


    the lesson in their journal. I also had my students draw and label an
    ecosystem of their choice.

    When you have the opportunity to re-teach this lesson, what will
    you do differently (strategies, teaching tools, assessments, etc.)
    to improve student learning for all students?

    When I teach this in the future I would like to make more connections
    to the ecosystems in our back yard. I felt my students had a clear
    understanding of living things dependent on one another however,
    they were very interested in ecosystems like the ocean or rainforest.
