TA Week #2 Madison

Last weeks focus in Mrs. Debbie's listening class was on music. The students had several assignments related to music including two quizzes. First off, the students had to listen to two interviews about musicians and take notes on both. The students were quizzed on both interviews, but were able to use their notes in both. Then the students listened to a Weird Al song called 'Beat It' and completed a dictation with it by filling in the correct song lyrics. I was actually able to grade one of the quizzes that the students took. Grading their work is a lot more difficult than I expected because there are a lot of exceptions that can be made while grading. I feel that is one thing I will struggle with as a teacher. Mrs. Debbie told me I'd probably be teaching this week, so I created a lesson plan and e-mailed it to her. It's about American football. I am excited and have already told a few of the students that I will be teaching!:)
