Field Week 3

This week is week 3 of field. There are no assignments again but the digital story which we have already presented.


This week we got to experience all the different things included in being a teacher. For example there was a fire drill and we got to grade essays. I believe the teacher is having us do these things so that we are not really shocked when we are teachers. Grading papers made me happy that I did not chose to specialize in English. It took us pretty much all week to grade those papers. They were two pages single spaced and twelve point font. 


By grading the papers I learned that feedback is good for the students and that two pages single spaced and twelve point font is kind of tough for them. She didn't have us grade for grammar and spelling, but she just wanted to see if the students can follow directions. After they got there papers back she had them write in there journals what they thought was there strong point, what we thought was there strong point and how they can improve writing on future essays. I think this is a good way to engage the students in helping with feedback on their grades.
