Strategy Lesson Reflection

Our strategy lesson we taught for the class was the strategy “Tweet to Text”. The strategy includes giving the students some sort of topic or problem on a tweet-based document, and the students only have a certain amount of characters to give an explanation or answer. You could also have your students do a real life tweet on their phones if your classroom allows technological devices. I thought our lesson went pretty well. We gave our students order of operations equations and told them to solve them using order of operations. Some grows that we received were to be more organized and explain the assignment better. I think we could have done a better job with explaining the directions, however it was difficult for us to explain the task with four people teaching the lesson, and I also think it was difficult for the students since they were in groups of three or four. I think doing an assignment like this would be easier when you are the only teacher and you have created a level of respect with your students and they understand your way of explaining lessons. I thought this was an interesting strategy lesson and I would like to implement it into my own classroom one day, especially since students are becoming more and more technologically savvy through the generations.
