Internship One: Caley Elementary School
During this internship, I observed my mentor teacher and assisted the class of 19 fourth-grade students independently or in small groups. I also took lunch orders and graded homework.
Internships Two and Three: Upper Merion Area Middle School
During these internships, I observed three classes: 18 students in eighth grade Gifted, 17 students in seventh grade Gifted, and 11 students in eighth grade ESL. These students mostly completed independent work without needing assistance, so I was observing more. I also watched and graded presentations of the gifted students' SPARK independent research projects.
​
During the second internship, I taught a lesson for the first time. I presented to the ESL students a slideshow about what to do and what not to do when crafting a presentation. The purpose of this lesson was to help the students prepare for upcoming presentations.
