During my 75 hour clinical, I had the opportunity to interview two students in my class at Monongah Elementary. The first was ________ a high funcioning student who is one of the first to raise her hand with answers and scores high on all assessments. The following is a list of questions I asked and the students responses:
What did you enjoy about this project? I liked that I got to choose what I wanted to do.
Why? It was fun.
What was your story about? My dot went on a trip and got lost but then found its way back home.
What do you like about school? My friends, Mrs. Sabo, and reading.
The following are the responses of a lower level student. The student has difficulty completing assignments on time without teacher assistance.
What did you enjoy about this project? being able to color ir the way I wanted it
Why? you didn't tell us what was wrong or right
What was your story about? My dot was a baseball that got to play in a game that was on tv.
What do you like about school? Art and music and going outside
This interview was after the lesson I taught when I had the students create an alternative ending to the story we read that week. All of the students were very engaged in this lesson and everyone came up with some wonderful ideas and were able to be creative and imaginative. The lower functioning student scored just as high as the higher functioning student did on this assignment.
