Peer observation is critical for professional development and self-reflective practices. Observation and reflection allow educators to understand what instructional practices are used to modify curriculum and best support student learning. As a curriculum expert, you will work with colleagues in assisting them in differentiating lessons for whole groups and small groups.

Allocate at least 3 hours in the field to support this field experience.

Using the “COE 3-Day Unit Plan Template,” assist your mentor teacher in creating a 3-day remediation plan for the group of students identified in Topic 2. If a student in the group is not in need of remediation, the differentiation should focus on enrichment. Use the information gathered from the learning style inventory and your observations in Topic 3 to assist your mentor in making instructional decisions. If possible, observe your mentor teacher implementing one of the remediation lessons and provide the teacher with feedback.

Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.

Consider the following:

• How were the lessons differentiated for multiple types of students, readiness, and interest?
• What strategies were used to present materials? How did these strategies engage diverse students?
• What formal and informal assessment tools and techniques were implemented?
• How can the assessment results be used to modify future instruction?
• How did the learning style inventory and observations drive your instructional decisions?
