CRITICAL INCIDENT

My Critical Incident and its impact. 
One critical incident in my Practicum class that grasped my attention was the manner in which lesson planning was undertaken by my lecturer.  I soon realized after the first two or three sessions of class that lesson plans are not to be taken lightly.  It became clear that lesson plans are like road maps that clearly and precisely state what the students need to know and how it will be done effectively and efficiently during the stipulated time.  My lecturer continuously reminded and urged the students of my class to take time, be diligent and always understand the abilities and goals of the children you have to teach.  Having the lecturer always being persistent and not settling for anything less than what was expected gave me full confidence when I had to present my lesson plan with my colleague to the entire Practicum class.  I was not only confident but I felt successful and accomplished at the end of the entire Practicum III course.  I am certain more than ever now that I can plan effectively for any lesson in the future because I have had high standards instilled in me.
