A little about me!

Hello! My name is Paige Petty. I am 21 years old. I just recently got engaged and I am getting married May 28, 2011. My hobbies include fishing, shopping, spending time with my mom and family, and watching movies and football. I am a Senior at the University of South Alabama and will I graduate May 14, 2011. I am going to school for Elementary Education. I graduated from J. U. Blacksher in Monroe County and then went to Faulkner State Community College for two years. I graduated from Faulkner in the Spring of 2009 with honors. I was a member of Phi Theta Kappa. That Summer I worked as a youth counselor at Poarch. That was definately an experience. It showed me that I wanted to be a teacher. In the Fall of 2009, I started my first year at the University of South Alabama. I moved from Uriah, AL, which is in Monroe County, to Spanish Fort, AL to be closer to school. In the Spring of 2009, I was at Daphne Elementary School in 2nd grade for pre-sequence. This was a great semester. I learned so much from my cooperating teacher. For sequence, I am at Delta Elementary School in 5th grade. The school, staff, and children are great. This school is small and reminds me so much of the school I went to.

Below I have summarized some of the lesson plans I have written, but I have also included the whole lesson plan. If you look on the right hand side under my profile, there is a section called "Pages" which will include all of the lesson plans. Hope you enjoy my blog!

Guided Reading and Small Group


Working with a small group.
 Effective reading teachers are excellent classroom managers and know how to adapt instruction to meet the needs of learners with special needs. In my classroom, I will have thirty minutes for whole group instruction and sixty minutes for small group instruction. While some students are in small groups, the remaining students will work in reading centers. Whole group instruction is used to introduce new information. Small group instruction is used to reinforce and review skills. It is provided based on the student’s needs. The reading centers will reinforce the new skills they learned during whole group instruction. I plan to have good traffic flow and round table to support book discussions. Everything will have a purpose and a place.
