The student teacher, Alya Ghanim, taught a lesson on inverse relationships and division to a 3rd grade class. The lesson was rated as excellent in several competency areas including professionalism, planning, implementation, and reflection. The purpose and objectives of the lesson were clearly explained. Division was modeled using student participation. The classroom environment was conducive to learning and students were respected. For development, the observer suggested asking students questions at different levels of Bloom's taxonomy rather than questions meant for the teacher. The focus for the next lesson should be on higher-level Bloom's questions.
