Two-Part Reflection:

outcomes/instructional objectives, noting signs of difficulty; and (2) changes to enhance student (K-12) learning. The reflection must
address ELLs and ESE factors separately.

PART II: Identify the competencies and skills ( http://www.firn.edu/doe/sas/ftce/ftcecomp.htm) that you used as you implemented
this lesson. What gaps existed? How can I improve my practice and these competencies and skills, through professional development?
