Reflection on Errors.

The errors were very interesting to do in class. I learned a lot because I have never thought about looking at students work before and trying to figure out a pattern in what they are doing wrong. This was the first class in my college career that has done that and I think that it should be done in other classes as well. It's important to see where your students are missing something or not doing something right. It is a teachers job to help their students learn new concepts first you have to look at the problem in their shoes to see what they are seeing and how they are looking at the problem I liked doing these in class it was very helpful to look at the different mistakes that students were making. There were some errors that I could not figure out and my group members had to help me and talk me through it. Sometimes I might need to ask other teachers to look at a students work when I am a teacher if I cannot figure out the pattern of the work that a student has. I think analyzing student work is very important and doing it in this class really helped me.

The errors also went along with the presentations that we did in class where we had to figure out how to grade the students work. This was really hard and frustrating but I feel that my group and I decided on the right way to classify their answer. It still took a lot of analyzation on all of the students work that they were doing, which is why I think that this activity also went along with the errors. Analyzing students work is vital to being a teacher and I think both of these activities were extremely helpful in preparing us to do that.
