Well I waited till this morning to blog about yesterday's lesson so I could be more positive. Also because I was exhausted last night. So positive things:
- They enjoyed the first card sort activity
- Most of them know how to draw y=x
- By introducing midpoint as the mean and length as applying pythagoras didn't seem to get many input into formula type errors
- Some of them are keen
- No one was injured
Ok negative:
- I was thrown by such a big class (20 soon to be 22) particular when I ran out of desks
- I assumed too much knowledge (some needed reminding of plotting coordinates)
- I was trying to more flowing and flexible but I think I need more structured questionning planned
- A few of them were a bit bolshy
- I probably came across as nervous
I think these things are fixable so we'll see how things go next Tuesday after some thorough planning.
