Microteaching Reflection . Watercolour Minilesson.

 

Ten minutes is a lot of time, but ten minutes passed so quickly!!

I learned two important things:

• No matter how many times you have taught a lesson, it will always be a new one depending on external factors like the location, the learners, the number of learners, the background of the learners, and, in this particular case, the availability of the materials, and internal factors as the focus of the teacher, the mood, sleep, and previous knowledge of the group of learners.
• I need to work on my time management. I am always short, so I need to do something different. Something like recording the lesson to give myself feedback and improve the time allocation for the different parts of the lesson.

I felt happy with the outcome of the micro teaching because we accomplished our goal, but I felt as stressed as the students when we had to run through the steps to complete them on time.

Overall, it was a fun lesson with full engagement. It has the potential to be combined with some math subjects, too.
