This week was another successful, productive week. This week besides the usually taking over 5th, 7th, and 8th period I had to take over ALL class periods on Thursday and Friday. I had to take over all classes because we started a new unit The Civil Rights Movement. On Thursday and Friday we did something new with the students. Instead taking the usually kind of notes when I stand at the smart board and lecture and they take notes, we instead did think maps. This is sort of like a flow chart, but instead a little different because we are connecting all major and minor events of the Civil Rights movement together. Besides that I had a good week, and this weekend I am tasked with creating more lesson plans regarding the civil rights, which is a little harder than I expected. Although I learned to write lesson plans for a class, it is much harder to do when there are actual students in front of you and their passing or failing is partially on me, and what I teach them.
