Week 5 - Meredith

This past week was a fairly normal week for me. I've been excited about my math lessons this week because the students really seem to be understanding the connection between decimals and fractions. I used the curriculum as a basis for what I taught and made sure to go over in my own words the concepts being taught so make sure the students really understood. The students also had many chances to work in groups to figure out the problems and I was able to observe some great group work occurring. Overall, I am feeling much more confident about teaching math than I was originally. It's been fun to see my own teaching ability grow over the past few weeks and it makes me excited to see how I'm going to continue to grow as a teacher.
