Lesson Reflection |
|||||||
What went well?
Scholars were successful because they had exposure to different feeling words by reading How Are You Feeling?
|
What would you change?
Some scholars continued to use the words happy, sad. Did not use different words- If this is happening let them flip through the book and try and find at least 2 new feeling words that they can explain in their own words. |
What needs explanation?
Emphasize that feeling words don’t have to describe a character all of the time, but they describe a character in a particular situation.
