How did my professional knowledge and skills grow and develop over the course of the semester?

What I learned most from this class was about the P.E.Ts we did and the discussions surrounding them. I felt like through talking about these different types of teaching demos I was able to more clearly understand how I could apply these lessons to my music classroom. It really helped me to hear the ideas from my classmates on how they would apply the concepts. By learning about these different plans I felt more aware and professional when I was at Garry. By having a foundation of what good lessons and structured teaching should look like I was able to pick up on more learning moments in both my AVID and content area class. As cheesy as it sounds, this semester I feel a lot more like a teacher. Through discussing in class about what makes a good lesson I feel much more confident about going in to a classroom in the future. It's like I know how to be a teacher after this class- this is in reference to learning how to create an effective lesson plan.
