ReflectionThe days lesson involved our third trip to the bowling alley and the first day of our singles tournament. We had previously spent time
on scoring, the three step approach, and two days bowling independently at the bowling alley before this lesson. My content
knowledge was appropriate for this lesson as I, along with the students, applied the knowledge from previous lessons on scoring and
technique. I demonstrated my content knowledge as I engaged with the students on an individual basis regarding their scores as well
as their technique. If I were to teach this lesson again I would reinforce the expectations at the beginning of the lesson more clearly
and use another form of assessment at the end of the class period. Other than that, due to the nature of this lesson, I dont have
anything else to change at this point.
