    This document outlines a Year 10 English lesson plan focused on introducing William Shakespeare and his play Macbeth. The learning intentions were to familiarize students with Shakespeare's language and social context. Students participated in a think-pair-share activity to brainstorm what they knew about theatre, Shakespeare, and 16th century England. They then watched a humorous rap video about Shakespeare to engage them in the topic. The teacher reflected that an intention was not logically achievable and the strategies of think-pair-share and choosing their own groups worked well to engage students. Areas for improvement were minor noise issues that were addressed.

    Preservice Teacher Reflection

    Mentor Teacher Feedback

    `
    Did students achieve the Learning Intentions?
    Success Criteria
    What were the successful strategies?
    How did you the teacher get them to the end result?
    Where to from here? Whats next?
    Very engaging class. Students were enthusiastic and all got
    involved (bar 1 or 2) in the Shakespearean insults. I think I
    presented the content in an exciting and fresh way.
    Students did not achieve the learning intention but I think it
    was the way I wrote the intention as it was not logically
    achievable in this lesson.
    The successful strategies was the think, pair, share before
    doing the brainstorm and all students seemed to be engaged
    and contributed.
    Telling the students to pick their own groups was a risk so it
    will be interesting to see how they work in these groups
    tomorrow.

    Strengths / Areas for Improvement


    How will we work to improve them?
    Strengths

    Start of the class was very well run.


    Students read silently and you checke
    that they were all on task.

    The video and meme were funny and


    were a good way to engage students
    the topic of Shakespeare.

    The lesson had a variety of activities


    that catered for all different learning
    types. There was writing, reading,
    speaking and moving out of their sea
    Areas for Improvement.

    Not really. At times students became


    bit noisy but this is to be expected
    given the nature of the activities in th
    lesson. You spoke to the students and
    got them to focus on the task.
