Winter caught up and I was booked off for 3 days with a serious ear and throat infection.
The classes I did have however was almost normal by now. The accounting and EMS classes are a breeze, but I'm struggling even more with the math lit classes. According to the teacher, I'm not really putting myself into the lesson, bur rather am drawing on her method of teaching. I'vethus triwd to do my own thing but it is simply not working. I'm spending way too much time reviewing yesterday's homework answers than doing the new work and I'm afraid of falling behind. I have now realised why the teacher hadspent time on going throuhg the homework prior to the learners doing the questions, as it cuts down on redoing the answers the following day and is therefore a valuable time management tool. My concern doing it this way was that I felt the learners then just do what you say and they do not engage with the material. Itis however what they have been doing since taking Math Lit, so I'm going to gi e it a try and will revert back.
I'm going to ask the teacher if I may observe the grade 11's going forward so as to be able to see what she's doing different than me. It is the more difficult class by far.
