Cedar Ridge

I feel like I got a lot more out of this clinical visit than last time. I observed Mr. Miles' class and as soon as we got there he let everyone go outside to learn about Phonemic Awareness. I was so intrigued by some of the activities he was doing relating to rhyming, alliterations, etc and even found myself participating and being sort of stumped with some of the words! I liked the way that he cued the class to clap to get them involved. His classroom was set up in a fun yet organized manner and even his classroom management skills were pretty effective from the short time that I was there.

  1. That sounds like a fun experience. I think its always a good idea to take kids outside whenever possible. It helps them get a lot of energy out and also sometimes helps to step out of the classroom to learn something the best. I am surprised that his classroom management skills can be so effective even when taking his students outside- but that's even better!
