    Reflection

    1) One thing I felt good about when teaching my lesson was that I was confident in teaching
    the blues scale and doing the call-and-response portion. I made sure that I was really
    secure in the intervals and patterns before the lesson, and I think that this made the first
    part of the lesson go smoothly. I also liked that the transition into groups went smoothly.
    I was planning on having the students count off and divide into groups that way, but a
    student suggested that they divide into groups based on their assigned seats in class. This
    helped cut transition time.
    2) I want to be more comfortable giving the students feedback for the next lesson.
    Sometimes the students wouldn’t sing the patterns correctly, or wouldn’t sing at all, but I
    would just continue with my lesson without correcting them. I think that giving feedback
    will get easier with time, but I want to feel secure enough in the lesson and my teaching
    to take time to offer comments and suggestions.
