Unfortunately, everything has to come to an end. This will be my last math blog for now. We will be looking at my development and the math topic probability.
Development:
What I love about this course is that it gave me the opportunity to grow as a student and as a future educator. Firstly, the student-driven presentation allowed me to develop a mathematical lesson that showed my peers some cool and unique ways to approach a topic. It also allowed me to listen to others constructive criticism and other approaches I may want to look at. It also allowed me to be on the other side of the spectrum- by this I mean I was able to evaluate and give criticism to my peers.
The EQAO assignment allowed me to see how I myself can approach a problem and how other's view a mathematical problem. This assignment exposed me to the mathematical process expectations. The co-development of the lesson plan helped me understand the development of a lesson plan more deeply. This class has allowed me to start my journey to becoming a mathematical educator.
Probability:
Cole had a wonderful presentation that demonstrated probability and how to teach it in a unique way. He started off his presentation by developing a probability line on the whiteboard, as seen below.
Cole then provided us with scenarios that each pod discussed the likely hood of it happening. Here are the scenarios that he created:
I honestly will probably would like to do this kind of lesson with my students in the future. It was a fun way to look at how probability is defined.
I will embed a video illustrating probability:
I had a great time in this class and with my placement just around the corner, I believe that this class has taken any fear away from teaching math. I am know excited to try some of peers lessons in my own classroom and hope all them the best going forward!
