Today we were unable to meet in class but luckily we were able to hold a virtual class on WizIQ. During this class we discussed effective ways of implementing direct instruction and specific techniques for checking students understanding. Today's class cleared any confusion I had based on the direct instruction lesson plan. After class I began to brain storm ideas for my direct instruction lesson. I learned that direct instruction strategy is highly teacher directed! Creating a direct instruction lesson plan it is important to question your students for a variety of reasons such as, assessing learning, developing understanding, and encouraging creative response, facilitating critical thinking, increasing awareness, and most importantly guiding the process of dialectical reasoning! During our virtual class we watched a video of a real classroom to show us examples and how to create such an environment.
