Reflection: During this observation, the students had to go over questions and go over test taking strategies. They had
to go through these questions because the students were getting ready to complete the FSA. The students were not as
engaged as when we first started these strategies. I ask the students what can I do to make this assignments fun. One
of the students said Just not to do it. Im tired of doing these tests and they are not fun at all. The students completed
the assignment in a good time frame. From the feedback and my supervisor notes, I notice I need to include every
student, and this includes asking different students every time and also pulling sticks randomly.
