on twitter i followed three people that were doing student teachig. i followed
Marissa Alcorn‏ @MarissaAlcorn,
 Ashley Lindsey ‏@ashleylindsey26,

all three of them find education a good experience. i found them by searching for student teaching and read some of their tweets. Tanner Nix posted on twitter "Children are proof that unsaved people are often the sweetest. #studentteaching ". i followed Marissa Alcorn because she is currently a teacher and she teaches 8th grade, she enjoys her students and having to teach them new things. she quotes on twitter "So excited to see my 8th graders again! #StudentTeaching ".

Observation: Bloom's Taxonomy in a classroom .

yesterday we did an observation on classes we choose. we had to look what types of Blooms Taxonomy where the classes used. i had observed a kindergarden class of Ms.Guerrero. her class only had seven students present but a total of twelve students in her class. although her class was a small class she still manages to make her class look colorfull and a learning place.

 when i walked in to observe they were going over their sight words. the students used the method og knowledge and application. as a class they reviewed their sight words. they all had a chance to go up to the board and read the sight words out loud to the class. the recited the spelling of each sight words and could identify wjat the words are on their own.

some of the students were not focus but the teacher had managed for all of them to pay attention to when it came to their turn to read each sight words out loud. after they were all done reciting and reading each sight word they used pictures to add their sight words together. i think that was a good way for the students to remember and understand the word and its spelling.

our next observation will be us reading to the students a book their teacher has choosen. we are to create an activity after reading the book and would have the teacher's evaluation on how we had did.

who, what, where, when is the article about ? Bloom's Taxonomy

the article is about Benjamin Bloom, where he identifies the three domains of learning.

• Cognitive: mental skills (knowledge)
• Affective: growth in feelings or emotional areas (attitude)
• Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (skills)

domains can be thought in categories such as KSA ( knowledge, skills, attitude). these behaviors are also thought as "the goals of the learning process" after the learner has acquired new skills, knowledge, and attitudes. then the three domains are divided into subdivisions, from the smallest behvior to the harder behaviors. Bloom's explanation of the three domain is the most understood and applied work use today.

the cognitive domain involves knowledge and the development of intelectual skills. they include recognition of specific facts, procedural patterns, and deelopment of intellectual abilities and skills.

• knowledge: recall data or information
• comprehension: understand the meaning and translation of instructions and problems.
• application: apply what is learn in the classroom into life and your surroundings.
• analysis: understand the difference between facts and inferences
• synthesis: builds a structure or pattern from different elements
• evaluation: judgments made about value of ideas or materials

Affective Domain
include manners in which we deal with things emotionally. such as feelings, values, appreciation, enthusiasms, motivations, and attitude.

• recieving phenomena: awareness, willingness to hear, or selected attention
• responding to phenomena: attends and reacts to a particular phenomena
• valuing: the worth or value a person attaches to a particular object or behavior
• organization: organize values into priorities by contrasting values, resolving conflicts, and creating unique value system.
• internalizing values: has a value system that controls their behavior

Psychomotor Domain
include physical movement, coordination, and use of motor skills in areas. these skills require practice and is measured in terms of speed, precision, distance, procedures, or techniques in execution.

• perception: ability to use sensory cues to guide motor activity
• set: readiness to act
• guided responses: stage where you learn complex skills that include imitation and trial and error
• mechanism: learned skills become habits and the movements can be performed with confidence and proficiency
• complex overt responses: skillful performances of motor acts that involve complex movement patterns
• adaption: skills are well developed and the individual can modify movement patterns to fit special requierments
• origination: creating new movement patterns to fit a particular situation or specific problem

Bloom's Revised Taxonomy

• remembering: recall previous learned information
• understanding: understand the meaning and translation of insturctions and problems
• applying: apply what you have learn into classrooms and situations in the work place
• analyzing: seperate material and concepts into component parts so it is organized and understood
• evaluating: make decisions about the value of ideas or matrials
• creating: put parts together to form a whole with creating a new meaning or structure

in my english class we have journal writing time and them we share after. i think doing journal sharing is an affective domain, becuase we share our values and our feelings and thoughts with eachother. but mostly because my fellow classmates take the time to listen to people read their journals and become an affective domain learner.
