Introduction. In This Paper, I Will Cover My Field Experience

Introduction In this paper, I will cover my field experience and what I observed in the classroom. It will go in depth about different philosophies and ideas used in the classroom, and also focus on the motivation and classroom management within the classroom.

For the mathematically inclined classes (7th: Pre-Algebra; 8th: Algebra I), Mrs. Dillard taught using PowerPoint’s.
