Lesson 7 Reflection

This week was about assessment. I really enjoyed how the reading talked about all the different kinds of assessments. Sometimes I mean like us as teacher forget that there are more than just the formal standard ways of assessing. We need to assess the students learning in more different ways. A big reason more just other ways of testing is because some students of test anxiety which will cause them to close up and do really bad on the test when that students really do know the information that you are testing them on. Also, another reason is that they might not comprehend what they are reading or just don't understand the language that the test is in. I know for me on some test, I had someone read the test to me because I had a hard time comprehend things that I read. That is the only way that I could get through school. I had it mostly in elementary school but I still enjoyed, and I saw a difference on my test scores when I tried taking a test without someone reading me the question. In elementary school, any test that didn't require me to read anything was the best for me. That way I felt like I could really show my teachers what I knew and I felt like I was smart.

This week I did the simulation of the eye patch. It was harder than I thought it was going to be. I typically forget that my left eye is weaker than my right. So when I put the eye patch on my right eye it was difficult to read ...

Lesson 2 Reflection

" Doctrine of Inclusion ," Elder M. Russell Ballard In this talk, Elder Ballard talks about how we need to make everyone feel included. Elder Ballard mention how in the parable that Jesus tells, it talk about a Samaritan  helps a Jew. It is important that Jesus mentions this two different groups because back then they didn't like each other and would never inter mingle. From this parable we can learn that we need to treat everyone with care and love.  " The Moving of the Water ," Elder Boyd K. Packer Elder Packer talks about how we need to serve our neighbors. We need to remember that everyone is our neighbor. No matter how big or how little our act of service is, it can have a big impact on the person that is receiving the service.    " Concern for the One ," Elder Joseph B.
