Day Four

Situation: Another substitute teaching assignment

Metacognitive Strategies: Firstly, I managed the environment by turning off the overhead light and opening the blinds. I planned and organized my teaching by reading the lesson plans and notes left by the absent teacher.

Task-Based Strategies: I used yellow highlighter on the written plans. I also rehearsed the lessons before the first student of the day arrived. I had to learn the whereabouts of a student in order to pick him up for ESOL class. I accessed information sources in the form of two teachers on the staff.
