She selected those students setting properly to do the activity. Good.
At the beginning most students were engaged and paying attention during the matching pair game. However, when the game took longer time, most students were
disengaged.
She reminded students to set properly.
She picked four students and asked them to go to the yellow table, a few more students to go to the green table.
She went to explain the first activity for one group, while a few students were still setting in the circle.

She brought a real basket. She should students the cover page of the story and asked students questions about the story.
She read the story for the students from the book. She should introduce the fruits in the basket first.
When reading the story, she focused on the fruits each animal took. She missed the whole story (e.g., Handa did not know about the missing fruits, she was going to see her
friend, etc.)
Excellent way to show both orange and tangerine so students can differentiate between both.
After reading the story, she asked a student to come and pick a card, say the name of the fruit and try to find the matching pair.
She introduced each activity separately in the learning centers.
In the closing, she asked students to share their drawing with the whole class by naming the fruits they drew. (Different than what is written in the lesson plan)
