Cultural Group Lesson
In my Culturally Relevant Pedagogy class, one assignment we did was a Cultural Group Lesson. In groups of three, we were each given a different culture. We researched, found videos, interviewed a current teacher about the culture, and then taught all that we learned to our fellow future teachers. My group was assigned the culture of Arab students to teach to our class. We demonstrated Domain 4 in the Danielson Framework. It showed professional responsibility in the research we did and the interview. We also taught our lesson with a PowerPoint and made a guided notes packet for our class. Danielson 4c is Communicating with Families. We learned and taught our peers about how important it is to communicate with Arab families. They value family and it is important for the families to know that you want them to be involved in their children’s education. Danielson 4e is Growing and Developing Professionally. By researching the culture we were assigned to, we were enhancing our knowledge so that we can grow more as future educators. We also taught our class about how in the Arab culture Ramadan has a big impact on their learning. Specifically, during this time, it is important to show grace and respect for what is going on in these students’ lives. That being said we can support them and show that we care, this is demonstrating Danielson 4f, Showing Professionalism. Overall, gathering the information and forming a lesson helped me and my peers to learn more about our professional responsibility as an educator which includes studying different cultures that will improve how we can be there for our students as well as teach them in our future classrooms. |
