Objectives in the classroom: March 11

Yesterday in First Grade I was looking for what objectives the teacher was assigning for the class. When I first got there the teacher asked three specific students to pick out books and they took turns reading to the class, so the teacher and the class could evaluate their reading skills and their progress. After the students read their book their classmates complimented them but they also told them what they need to work on. This activity tests the student's skills in reading. Another objective they had was to work in their math stations. In their stations they have different activities, depending of their level of math they are currently on. While kids were in the their stations the teacher would pull them out one at a time to test them on the certain level they were on to see if they could move up to the next level. This lets the students work at their own pace and also lets the teacher see how productive they are in their stations. The lessons done in class were mostly to help the teacher see the progress the students are making in class by testing them in their different subjects.
