Reflection on lesson:
This lesson went really well. I was kind of nervous because for me rounding was easy and I
did not want to just have a fast boring lesson. But the students really enjoyed it. I loved going
back to my clinical school. The students are so sweet and really made me feel welcomed
again. Strengths of this lesson I believe would be that that students were easily able to explain
their answers and how they came to it, even if the answer was incorrect. The student could
still tell me why that was their answer and how they got it. A weakness that I still have is
classroom management. I still have trouble just letting the students all talk and tell me stories
that I have connected to the lesson. So a lesson that was supposed to take 20 minutes has now
turned into a 45 minute lesson. But overall the lesson went well and I enjoyed teaching it.
