Group- Teach Experience

I think that the group teach experience went very well. We had five group members, and we were all responsible for certain aspects and teachings of Sylvia Plath's, The Bell Jar. Having such a large group in such a small class allowed for us to cover a lot of information by using different teaching methods and topics. Everyone presented important information to the class and overall we received a good reaction. I know that some teachers frown on knowing about the author's life, however, I felt that Plath's life is so interesting and necessary to know about in order to receive a solid understanding of her semi-autobiographical novel. Rather than teaching all together, we taught in different sections. This provided variety and an ability for our teacher personalities to show and the students to personalities as well.
