Lydia Shepley
Responsibilities
Being a lead teacher in a preschool room. My responsibilities included:lesson planning (large and small group activities, toys, and other things the children will do within a week. Creating a newsletter for parents. I observed children and their development and assessed them off of what I observed. I also observed planning for field trips. I interacted with 16 preschoolers. I also learned about the daycare center's accreditation, data collection techniques, teaching styles and classroom/daycare's expectations.
Accomplishments
I assessed the children's alphabet knowledge and then throughout the week did activities pertaining to the alphabet. I later assessed them on their alphabet knowledge and saw improvement from most, if not all, of the children.
