MY OBSERVATION WENT WELL...
so i had my practicum observation with faulkner and i think it went really well. i was really concerned with the students not behaving well, but they were on their best behavior! i couldn't be more happy! my lesson for my observation was mummifying a chicken since we were talking about egypt, and it couldn't have been a more perfect timing because my students had just done a lesson on ramses ii and how he is one of the best mummies preserved and so this tied in real well with my lesson. the students loved getting their hands messy, and the students were more engaged today than i have seen all year. the students being engaged in my lesson and also eager to share information on mummification and stories is what made me so happy because i don't think it could get any better than this!! it also helped when one of the students told me that this was the most fun that they've had in school all year!! so after all the stress of my practicum observation, i couldn't have asked for a better outcome!!

I am happy for you that your lesson went well! Mummifying a chicken is a neat lesson plan - I might steal that idea too. I'm nervous about my lesson, I hope I do ok. Congrats!
