Reflection

Students lost engagement in the lesson and a lot of students were misbehaving. When students are misbehaving I need to remember to
stop and slow my lesson down to ensure everyone is engaged in the lesson and is not distract or distracting others. I believe the students
lost engagement because the lesson was quit similar to other lesson therefore I need to ensure the lessons are differentiated. If I did this
lesson again I would incorporate a game into the lesson to regain student focus.
