** Self-correcting materials give the student immediate feedback without the teacher being present. They are especially useful with students with learning problems who have a history of academic failure. When a students makes a mistake with a self-correcting material, it is a private event.

 * Question 1 ** :They talk about recipes and having the students work together on making, venn diagrams, and also starting the class off with a subject that the kids know about very well. The teachers want the students to take what they have taught from the past and relate it to the present and to also help the students remember what they are being taught. Preparation is one thing they said is very importnant!!

**Question 2:** In my classroom, it will all depend on what type of students are in my classroom, do I need to arrange my room to fit a wheel chair or do I have a student that can't see the board from far away? Otherwise, I think I’d be like the teacher in the video where the students are in rows but they know how to quickly move their desk into groups. When arranging the classroom it all depends what type of desk/tables are being used and what sort of seating arrangement can be made with all students being able to see the board.

**Question 3:** The daily schedule is color coded for what book matches what color. The students each have their own box stocked with everything they need in the instructional area. I like the motivater that the teacher uses and since it vibrates the students never know when she has it set and it won’t distract the students. She also has an area in the classroom for the students if something is bothering them or they are upset they can go work in this corner where they are on their own. I noticed that some of the student’s desk had stuff on top while others were cleared off.


 * Question 4: ** I like how the routine is posted right when the students enter the classroom. The students know exactly what is needed to be done before they can go eat breakfast. After greeting everyone the students are pretty quiet and they follow the list and get started on everything they need to do.

**Question 5:**Having the written version of the morning routine easily displayed is very helpful for this classroom. The routine on some steps were very easy to follow where others had multiple things that needed to be completed so then listed was examples. If a student isn’t following the steps the teacher can at least refer back the morning routine chart.
