Writing a Reflection                                                             Name: Khuloud Ali
Select
In this lesson, I was trying to teach math and science in one lesson. I was trying to teach Hot and Cold. One of my scientific activities was to 
let the students draw the numbers by the ice. They explored  the experiment, but  the students didn't know what they are studying, it was hard for the teacher and students to know the outcome.
This picture shows the students' drawing, they are trying to draw their five senses. 


Describe
At Al-Dewan  Kg, I had to have a training in KG1 class. I had to teach Math and Science. The students were confused if they were having math or science. Sometimes I was asking them about the hot and cold, and then I asked about the numbers. I showed them at the beginning a number song and then I showed them a hot and cold pictures. The students were engaged and they were learning something, but they didn't know what the outcome was.

Analyze

I think that occurred because I didn't tell them about the outcome at the beginning, I didn't explain what they are going to learn. Which is very important for the students to be involved and know what they should learn about.


Appraise
The students need to know what they are learning and what the outcome is, that  will help the students to have a life long educational process. Also, that will help me to be a constructivist teacher. A teacher who gives the students an opportunity to develop their critical thinking. (Based on constructivism method)
Transform
In the next lesson, I say the Outcome in a kid way. For example, "Today we will learn about cold and hot things and we will count them". I will try to the activities together and bring things together. For example, I will use a technology that shows ice and sun or cold places and hot places, such as a picture of Australia in winter and dessert. After that, will let them to count for me, how many things they can see over the pictures.

                                       
To Sum up, I was very happy of my lesson, because the students were very engaged. The students loved the ice experiments. I really like having a  science and math together. My language gets better and The students' behavior has improved.
