First day of fieldwork

On Tuesday, my group and I were the first group to teach during our fieldwork at Dishop Dunn. We started with our direct inquiry lesson plan. Our topic was about the forming of our nation. We taught about the Constitution, compromise, the three branches of government, the Bill of Rights and the important people during that time. I was very nervous going first especially because this is my first time in a class with Dr. Smirnova. But, my group worked so well in the week that we had to prepare for this lesson. We memorized the material and were all very confidant.
We presented this material to the students my using a powerpoint and lecturing. We used a note sheet for the students to use to follow along with so they could stay engaged throughout the lesson. Also, every few slides we had a "lets review" slide. Where we would ask 2 questions about the material we were just talking about. At the end of our direct instruction we then had our guided practice. We used a time line with dates and definitions of what happened on that day. We give four groups of students two terms that would fit on the time line. As a class, we asked them what they thought the answer was and if other students agreed. After, the group that had the word word would bring it up to the timeline and put it on.
At the end we gave the students an exit ticket to see what they have learned and to see what we would need to go over on Thursday.
