Learn and Serve #4 and #5: 10/27 and 11/3...2:15 each

I realize that i grouped two learn and serves together but i have to go to 9 learn and serves anyway so my blogs will still all be here.


These two learn and serves were pretty similar. My teacher did a good job teaching the students. I am there for four different classes but two of them are essentially the same grade level and course. Its interesting to see how she changes the second class based on how the first class went. If in the first class, the students didn't understand the material being taught, she would change the way she went about teaching it to the second group as to not waste time explaining everything.
I have also come to realize just how small of school Niagara Catholic actually is. I mean, absences are expected but in some classes, when all the students are there, 3 people are sitting in the seats. So when students are absent there are sometimes 2 students there to learn. According to the book, it is a goal for students to learn independently (p. 293) but i also think that they need to have peers next to them to help them and encourage them.
