speakers and asking follow-up
questions during the stories.
All of the students were engaged and respectful of the guest speakers. They were
not distracted by their phones or any other devices. The students were on the shy
side, but some managed to ask a few questions during the presentation. I am very
proud of this guest speaker interaction. I was able to organize this all on my own,
with no help from my mentor teacher or anyone else.
I can vary my role in the instructional process. When a guest speaker enters the classroom, I
shift my role to that of an audience member. I actively join the students at their desks and
participate as they would by asking questions and giving the speakers my full attention. I assist
in guiding the students to engage with the stories being told and asking follow-up questions to
keep the conversation going.
