Nice review of previous lesson
Very nice variety of activities and resources
Lovely interaction with the children
Good monitoring/facilitating of activities
Good evaluation of student learning through asking questions

Areas for development:


You are now a confident and relaxed teacher so you can work on improving those things
that prevent your lesson from developing as you wish
Dont allow children to shout out, right from the beginning of the lesson
Make sure the children stay on their bottoms once one gets up the others try to as well
Rather than getting the children to clap it is much better to give the child who did
something good some extra special positive feedback for eg wonderful, thats amazing, I
love what youve done etc
Dont forget the birds have feelings so less children around them use them to promote
respect and kindness to animals
