Read the directions on the paper aloud.
Then model the first question and ask X to do the next 2.
Read the ruler postulate aloud to the student. Ask if they have any questions on this postulate. If
so, answer them.
Model the first question on the next set of problems.
Have the student follow suit and solve the next problem.
Use this last problem as a formative assessment before moving on. If done correctly, go on, if not
go back and correct issues.
Reflection:
I liked this lesson overall. I think it went fairly smoothly as well. If I were to change something, I
would change the lengthiness of it. This was a review skill and I think I spent to much time in explicit
instruction and could have spent more time on the student and her process. I also would have had this
lesson more related to the other two so that they all were from the same class. Overall, I think the
student did well with this lesson and her summative assessment scores seemed to prove the same.
