Classroom Interactions Between Teachers And Students

Teacher/Student Interactions Through the course of my observations, I was able to see and analyze the classroom interactions between the teachers and students. Throughout all the visits I made to Mrs. C and Mrs. P class, the students seemed to be engaged with the material and participated in class discussions and activities. There were a few students who would go off topic when working on group projects. Nevertheless, both teachers made sure the students stayed focused and continued to work on their assignments.

The use of technology like this is something I did not have or was exposed to when I was in high sch ool.
