10/1 - 10/5

This week, Mrs. Munza was out, so there was a substitute for her. Since I am not completely in charge of all of the classes yet, it gave me some time to observe and take notes of a different teaching style. Unfortunately, the notes were not that great. The teacher, I feel, did not effective teach the students and was more concerned with getting through the material than presenting it. There were many times that students had to ask me to repeat what the sub had said or what the answer to a question was that they missed. The teacher knew what she was talking about, there was just a disconnect between her and the students. That is a trap that teachers always have to be wary of, because as soon as we start to lose them, students tend to just shut down.
