Teaching my five senses
Review the specific elements of the Danielson Framework and the HLPs listed below.
Danielson Domain 3 component D: Using Assessment in Instruction
HLP 19: Use assistive and instructional technologies.
HLP 21: Teach students to maintain and generalize new learning across time and settings.
HLP 22: Provide positive and constructive feedback to guide students’ learning and behavior.
HLP 5: Interpret and communicate assessment information with stakeholders to collaboratively design and implement educational programs.
HLP 8: Provide positive and constructive feedback to guide students’ learning and behavior
Observe your mentor teacher teaching a comprehension strategies using mentor text or math lesson that is building conceptual understanding in math and videotape this lesson
Take low-inference notes on the teacher’s lesson.
Timestamp and cite from the lesson to support your evidence utilizing low inference notes (see the directions and transcriipt template attached below).

Complete In-Class Lesson Analysis Template
In your analysis, identify and describe key elements of the observed lesson and analyze the instructional and assessment strategies that are used to engage the learner – focusing on the identified Danielson 3D and HLP 19, 21, 22, 5, 8 elements. Furthermore, each Domain 3 D component is composed of several smaller elements, which serve to further define the component. Make sure you address them in your analysis. Teacher Observation Critical Analysis.pdf
Support your findings with at least 2 comments on what went well in the lesson ( “glow”) and 2 suggestions for improvement ( “grow”), supporting your statements with references to the suggested strategies from the HLP descriiption from the (If the suggested in the module HLP is not applicable to the context of your teaching, you may choose another HLP and cite the source).
Make recommendations to improve lesson delivery making specific reference to the evidence from the low-inference transcriipt about the interactions between the teacher(s)/adults, children/children and children and the use of instructional materials/environment.
Submit your completed low inference notes and in-class lesson analysis via this Canvas assignment. Your submission will be graded with the below rubric.
