Reflection:

I enjoyed doing this lesson. Prior to the instruction, I would ask the students questions, such as who was the first President of the United States. The students were very knowledgeable about this. They appeared to know that Martha was the wife of George Washington, but did not know much beyond that. As a result, due to my knowledge of the topic, I found it easy to guide the instruction. However, there was an incident during this instruction. After I asked the students to draw a picture of George Washington, one of the students did not respond well to this. He did not want to draw at all using his own hands. As a result, the instruction was cut short as the paraeducators led the rest of the students outside for a short break. The cooperating teacher said I responded well - and that I showed a willingness to be flexible. It was decided that we will finish this up the next day.
