Reflection 3

A constructivist lesson plan consists of six key elements. These six fundamentals are created to incite teacher scheduling and reflection concerning the course of student erudition. The first segment of a constructivist lesson plan is situation. In the situation of the lesson, the teacher must decide what scenario they are going to come up with for the students to make clear. The situation must include a title. It must also give a description of the steps it took to resolve problems, respond to inquiries, wrap up, or create aspirations. It has to also incorporate what you would like the students to accomplish and how they will formulate individual implications.

The second segment of a constructivist lesson plan is groupings. In grouping, there are two groups. In group A, the teacher must decide in which way he will assemble the students; whether they will be taught as a class, in groups of twos, by rows and columns, or even individually. The teacher must also decide what he will use to consider who will go in what group; will the students be grouped based on last names, first names, or even sex? In group B, the teacher decides how they will assemble the supplies the students are supposed to use. It is also in group B where the teacher figures out how many items will be used by group.

The third segment of a constructivist lesson plan is the bridge. The bridge is the preliminary activity that creates a bridge between what the students recognize and what they may come to learn by responding to the inquiry in the situation.

The fourth segment of a constructivist lesson plan is questions. You can make inquiries during any portion of the lesson plan. The purpose of asking questions is to help entice the students and to help aid them in thinking critically. Not only should the teacher ask questions, he must also be ready to answer any questions the students may have.

The fifth and sixth segments of a constructivist lesson plan are exhibit and reflection. In the exhibit portion, the students show their classmates what they have done to be able to answer the inquiry in the situation. Some ways to show this can be through oral presentations, charts and graphs, and even pictures. In the final segment of a constructivist lesson plan, reflections, the students are to think back to the beginning of the assignment and think about what tools they used to come up with an answer to the situation.
