Professional Disposition Recordings and Student Work Sample

Digital literacy means learning how to use computers, tablets, and other technology in a smart and safe way. In our class, it includes knowing how to use devices for learning, following along with videos, and making good choices when using technology. In this math lesson, students used digital literacy while watching an educational video that taught numeral recognition, counting, and quantifying numbers 1–3. They practiced listening, participating, and interacting appropriately with the digital tool. After the video, students showed what they learned during a large group discussion and individual responses. To extend their learning, they created their own character inspired by the video, connecting technology with hands-on play while reinforcing their math skills.

Lesson Summary and Reflection

The children were highly engaged throughout the lesson. They were excited to participate, eager to respond during group discussions, and motivated during the hands-on activity. Many students showed confidence in recognizing and counting numbers, and they enjoyed connecting the digital content to their own creations.

Reflecting on the lesson, I was pleased with the level of engagement and participation. However, I would like to make numeral recognition more challenging in future lessons. While many students were successful with the numbers presented, increasing the difficulty—such as introducing higher numbers, mixed number recognition, or incorporating more problem-solving opportunities—would better meet the needs of all learners. Moving forward, I plan to differentiate the activity to provide both support and extension, ensuring all students continue to grow in their understanding of numbers.
