Science lesson
I had a science class with year 3, the activities were differentiated and hands-on. I enjoyed explaining the content and the students work looked beautiful. In addition, they were able to understand the concept and answered my questions.
The lesson plan:
The students work from the lesson
(Low ability students) The students had resources that helped to create a plate of the flower cycle.
(Middle ability students) The students had to cut the pictures of plant life cycle, glue it in order and they have to write the steps on the second plant cycle foldable worksheet.
(High ability students) the students had sunflower seeds + an A3 paper. Students glued the seeds on their A3 paper and create a poster showing the life cycle of the seed

Math lesson
I had a Math lesson with grade 5 girls, I wanted to have more interaction with the students. The lesson was about collecting data, I divided the class into two groups then allowed them to ask 'what is your favorite ice-cream flavor'. The students were moving around, and the class was a little noisy but it was an effective noise.

Science lesson
It was my first co-teaching lesson, I had all the support that I wanted from my MST. The lesson was excited to teach, as the students were allowed to explore a real flower in order to understand the concept. I felt the students enjoyed the lesson, as they asked me to come and they showed the parts that they discover.

Math lesson
Making 3D shapes skeleton using straws and modeling clay (cube, square based pyramid, triangle prism, pentagonal prism). There are 4 groups, in each group students will work in pairs, and each pair in their groups will be making different shapes. The shapes that each pair made, was based on their level\ability.
