Last week on Thursday, I sat in with JD’s class. The week before, his classroom watched and
finished the movie Super Size Me and
this week the students were to have an in-class discussion whether what people
eat should be restricted or not. The
point of the exercise was
Style is a variety of things: A teaching technique, a motivator, an experiment, and most importantly it's Personality.

Memo #3
Over the past few weeks I've had the opportunity to observe
my friend, James David Salisbury, in his middle school classroom at the Nathanael
Greene Middle School. He is an English
teacher that spans 6th grade to 8th grade, and also has
the opportunity to teach an accelerated 8th grade class. Before observing his class I had a number of
questions that I wanted to ask him about how
he taught.
What do you to present your writing assignments to the
class?
When you are trying to learn the class a new writing
technique or integrating the 5-paragraph essay into their academics, what steps
do you take?
How do you keep control of your class?
What makes your students take note of your lessons? (How do
you make yourself memorable?)
With 45 minutes to 1 hour, how do you teach everything you
need to teach them?
