Presentation Day 3

The last two presentations were really interesting.  Both of the groups were well prepared, had a lot of valuable information to give, and there activities were fun and engaging. The first groups activity was the one with the reverse poem.  This activity really captured my interest because it was like a give and take.  I learned from it and now I can practice this activity in my future class.  I believe that a lot of the peers were amazed when they discovered that the poem was double meaning.  Sometime noticing the little things can completely change your perspective.  Over all this group did a very good job.

The second group was very organized as well, and a lot of valuable information was discussed.  They showed that the book has important content that is beneficial to us as future teachers.  One aspect of the ignite talk they could have changed a bit, would be to have another group member speaking as well. Going back and forth between two speakers got a little dull.  On the other hand this groups activity part was simple but engaging.  The KWL chart is something very useful even to us as college students.  This activity could be used in the classroom as a foundation for a research project.  I know that I have used this chart in the past and I know I will use this in the future as well.
