Teaching Standards
Standard II. Planning and Instruction/Implementation
Being a very analytical and organized person, this aspect of teaching is in my nature.
When planning I am inclined to start with the big overlaying idea and with it in mind I gradually move towards the more concrete and specific.
When it comes to the particular details of my lessons I try to envision every aspect of my lesson through the eyes of my students. I keep in mind their current mental state and prior knowledge and experiences. Running this mental test helps me shape my lessons accordingly and plan more appropriately. Scrutinizing the experience and attempting to envision possible glitches to improve on helps me implement more developmentally appropriate instruction.
