Small Group Lesson

  Since candidates have a 30-hour field requirement in this class, you must teach a lesson (using your cooperating teacher’s lesson plan) with a small group of students. At least one of the students must have a documented disability and an IEP. Write at least a 1-page summary of your general observations and explain how the individuals within it function. The following must be included: • The summary should include: 1. Briefly describe the assigned setting (the classroom – the approximate number of students in the class). 2. Number of individuals/students in the small group. 3. Explain how and why these students required small group instruction. 4. A brief summary of the whole group lesson taught by the general education teacher, including the objective of the lesson. 5. A brief summary of the small group lesson taught by you. 6. Explain how you know the students were or were not learning the information. 7. Discuss how the student communicated to you that they understood the skill you were reteaching.
