I cannot believe that our fieldwork experience is almost over. I feel like we just embarked on this journey and were all so anxious to teach. I feel like all of the fieldwork groups have done an AMAZING job teaching the fourth grade students. Fieldwork group four prepared an inquiry prediction lesson for the companies. I liked how the companies had to predict because being able to predict is a skill the students will use and need for the rest of their lives. The students predicted which movie would profit the most and who would want to see each movie. Unfortunately, nobody wanted to see our movie but after they see it, I am sure they will love it. One way group four could have improved their lesson would have been to make sure the companies were really following the inquiry process. The question asked of the companies was difficult for them to investigate because they did not know much about the other companies. Group four did make sure to introduce the lesson, present a question to the companies, an opportunity to discuss their results, and provided feedback.
Our students were a little more focused today when we were working on the movie. All of them wanted to type the scripts for the movie and add details into the storyline. I am very proud of the movie our fourth grade company was able to create. One thing I would change in the future is to have every company use the same movie making strategy and procedure. I know our company was sad that they did not get to go outside to film their movie or actually be in their movie.
I am looking forward to the next fieldwork session for our grammy party. I am sure the fourth grade companies are beyond excited to see their hard work paid off.
