I like how your first lesson is setting the tone / building the foundation of understanding cultural appreciation vs. appropriation. I wonder if you can include examples of pop culture within the first lesson to ground it within a text/painting/music etc.

I think you need to be ready to deal with students or parents who might think this lesson is imposing values on the students. These are sensitive topics and not every person will think these are worth a discussion within a classroom.

Very impressed with the thorough-ness of the unit -- I really like how you have a 3-step plan: practice, solidify, apply. I feel like you could even break those three ideas down into multiple days, if you had a bigger unit. I feel like I could even use this type of concept in a different discipline.

I like the combinations of different types of teaching along with different modalities for students to understand the concept. The online, in person, video, whiteboards etc... really solidify students skills! Great job!

I love the interactive activities I think they’re super engaging, especially since students sometimes find geometry boring/predictable, to make the applications clear

I like your application project. I know for me math is hard without a real world connection and you did a good job with that.

How will they know how to calculate the speeds for travel distances? Are you giving them the mph for train/plane/car etc?

I appreacite the hands on apporaches to learning. Very interactive.

I like the idea of using costumes to get students more involved in the assignment, but please consider that some kids might be too embarrassed or shy to co-operate with this aspect of the assignment. How will you encourage students to have less shame/motivate students to participate in this situation? Something to consider.

I like the inquiry based approach to dramatizations of the math problems to engage students, and think you should look into including mathematicians from different cultures as well as ancient Chinese culture.

I liked how you had an emphasis on using simplier language to teach more complex math concepts while making learning fun. It would be interesting to see how the ideas your lesson can be applied to ESL and ML's taking higher level course such as calculus or physics(I have seen this).

I like how adaptable your lesson is -- you can either make it into a mini unit or extend it into a longer unit. I like how you emphasize the practice of writing. Maybe with a longer unit, you could focus on reading comprehension / analysis with the text.

I really like how you reflected on both your experience student teaching and your experience as a high school student. As we go into our future classrooms it's really important to work from both of those perspectives to ensure that our lesson plans are effective and engaging.

I like how you scaffolded out Lesson 2 with the prompting questions. Writer's workshop is such a great way for multilingual learners to practice their written and oral language development!

I liked what you mentioned about peer feedback. I believe that peer-reviews help students get another set of eyes on for the paper while also works as an opportunity students to learn how to give out proper feedback and learn the importance of good and constructive feedback.

This is great, but be careful when choosing a YouTube video because sometimes they speak very quickly, could be disengaging, etc. Sometimes in the end, I have to scrap a video part of the lesson because I struggle to find one that could be effective.

Would students be reading the entire play individually or during class time, or would they just be reading excerpts? If they're reading the play themselves, how would you scaffold/provide translations for the entire unit? Would you consider letting them watch a movie adaptation with English/Spanish subtitles?

I love the moodboard. I will take this. Amazing and simple way to introduce reading(which can sometimes feel like a drag to students).

It's awesome that you focused in on vocabulary, and noted that the lingo in the novel could be challenging for any student. The character tracker is also an awesome idea for scaffolding!

I like the idea of reading/watching simultaneously! I think that is a great way to link names to faces.

I like how relevant this is to students' identities. I like the moodboard and the character organizer with actual pictures because it always helps to visualize the character. Were you going to focus on other characters or just Ponyboy? I think their identities coincide with Ponyboy so focusing on how they connect could relate to other students' identities if they might not relate to Ponyboy.

I like that there is an aspect of discovery/exploration with the padlet. Great way to bring in primary sources/analysis with interaction and group work. I took so many history classes that were just notes and history channel videos, so nice work with the engagement piece.

# data[].attributes.body
I like that you brought in physical objects that students could look at. I'm a visual learner and it seems like a very hands-on approach that students will remember!

I like the idea of speed dating. I think it encourages fast thinking and decision-making. But I also think it's a fun way for students to engage with a person of interest.
