Today we met our 5th grade students!! My group and I prepared a "Getting to know you activity" for them. We played a board game with them. The rules to this board game were, if they landed on a pink square they answered questions about themselves, if they landed on a blue triangle it was a 7 second challenge, if they landed on an orange circle it was social studies questions about the topic we are teaching them, and if they landed on a question mark they asked us a question.
The class was split up into 4 groups. So we were able to plat the game with each group. The students seemed to enjoy the game. I enjoy this first day of fieldwork because it gives us an opportunity to meet the students and learn about them like what type of learners they are, their interests, etc..
Because of this day we were able to see who can work together in groups and who we did not want working together during our days of teaching. This made grouping them easier for us!
I am excited to teach this class, all the students seemed eager to learn and very smart!
