Reflection:
- This is my second lesson plan it was about animals live in groups. It was easy to teach the
children the animals, but the issue was (why these animals live in groups) it was little pit
confusing for them the reason is all the group of animals has a name. after I showed the
children a video about the animals I asked (what did you learn from this video) I should give
them more material to avoid misconception. At the end of the lesson I give all the students
homework it was a worksheet they should do it with their parents. In general, it was good and
it goes very smoothly with the students.
