and/or future classroom practices?

This observation let me focus on many things that can help the students learning. For example, I have
to show students the learning objectives and tell them what we are going to learn so they can be ready
for the lesson. Also, modeling and giving example for the students are important for them that will
make there learning easy for them and more helpful. In my opinion, I think using different material
for teaching are very useful to engage the students during the class time. For example, using
PowerPoint slides, videos, worksheets and animations. I see that managing the students are very
important to teach the lesson and all the students are attention with the teacher.
