Conversation with the mentor teacher

While your mentor teacher is working with the rest of the class, engage with the small group of students that was identified in Topic 3 on an engineering or STEM lesson or activity. Use your differentiated and engagement strategies where you see fit. After the engineering or STEM lesson or activity, in 250-500 words, summarize and reflect upon your experiences being sure to: • Describe your initial conversation with the mentor teacher, including how the small group was chosen. • Describe each differentiation and engagement strategy you planned, explaining your choices in relation to the needs of students within the small group. • Reflect upon your experience using the identified strategies with the small group during the science lesson or activity. • Discuss how the lesson incorporated engineering into the main content area. What field of engineering did the lesson support? • Discuss how the mentor teacher may have integrated engineering with math and science together. If there was no integration, how would you integrate these three subject areas? • Explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice
