Micro-teaching reflection - Greek Alphabet

I really enjoyed doing this micro-teaching.  I wanted to communicate to students a bit of my knowledge of Greek and particularly of the Greek alphabet.  Math students see Greek letters all the time in their classes, but usually do not get to learn about what these letters mean exactly.  As far as the lesson was concerned, the main thing I noticed was how quickly time went by.  I did not have the time to do everything that I wanted to do.  In fact, I didn't even come close.  The activity which I had planned to give students, which would involve them writing out the Greek letters on paper, did not materialize.  I found that the most efficient thing was just to write all the letters on the board.  Thus, in order to save time, I had to make the lesson less interactive.  If I were to do it again, I would try to focus on less content, and make it more interactive by providing enough time for an activity.  Most of the comments I received from my peers had to do we these two things: time management, and lack of interactive activity.  However, I did manage during my microteaching to ask lots of questions, which is usually what I do when I teach.  I love asking questions and probing students for answers.  I like using the blackboard a lot, and I think that for this micro-teaching, this proved beneficial.  I also trying to make the lesson interesting by giving a lot of practical knowledge to students - how to pronounce certain words and letters in Greek, and informing them that their former training was often incorrect (math teachers often don't know how to pronounce Greek!).  This made it possible for students to connect with my lesson and to draw applications for the future.
