Today was a nice session of observation micro teaching.

Perfume analysing, hand crafted cats and t shirts proofing.  With a  valuable lesson of how to problem solve moving an expensive heavy object and the right ways to lift. It probably helped that it was a group that I’ve met before but when you’re in the hot seat all eyes on you.

Today I learnt that there are 3 parts to perfumes and colognes Base, heart and top there is also 4 categories of scents amber, florals and compositions. Also, no two perfumes smell the same

Hand crafter Cat, giving feedback to a child what is the best way? 50% 50%, sandwich feedback marking criteria, self-reflection from the student. Just so you don’t misinterpret what they wanted to achieve you could ask them what were they looking for to produce in a result. A suggestion from a peer be honest, if its crap it just is. But you can do better next time. What do you plan on doing next time. This way it allows them to manage the truth and society in the future they won’t always feel like they are the best as they won’t always will be. Being told no and its nots good enough can work towards making you stronger or aiming higher.

My take away nuggets, Note to self.

I could have brought in some examples of fonts like chocolate bars, magazines and newspapers. I could have explained more about the font styles serif and sans serif.
