I taught bowling in my 434 class last Friday, and within this lesson plan I had to have an assessment. My partner and I split the class in two groups and she took one group over to do "Blindfold bowling", which by the way is a really fun activity, and I took one group over to complete our assessment. After what should have been 5-7 minutes we were suppose to switch. Now our assessment took a little longer then we planned and we almost ran out of time but thankfully we fit everyone in to be assessed. This lesson taught me that I need to be more cautious when it comes to my time management. Our assessment was a rubric that would score the students on a one through four vs. how many pins the student knocked down with one roll of the ball. The assessment seemed to work out fine, our other two group members go in another week and hopefully our time management skills are a little better. I think that the time we put on our lesson plans doesn't always work out the way we plan when we move into a classroom setting.
