Today I found myself being successful in the classroom by
being aware of a student that did not understand the lesson. While performing my lesson over Manifest
Destiny, I noticed one student in particular not engaging in the discussions
and questions included and promoted within my lesson. Once the lesson was completed, I approached
the student asking if they understood what the lesson was over and they replied
with not really. When finding this out, I
began to ask what part of the lesson was not understood. The student made it clear that she had moved
to Texas from California two years ago and didn’t know much about Texas history.
When understanding the Texas information was brand new to this student I gave
an individual lesson and helped relate why Texas history was important to the
term Manifest Destiny along with relating it to Californian history.
