I had butterflies in my stomach and I felt like one big ball of sweat as the feel of dread run through my body. This is the feeling I would always get in grade school when teachers would assign book reports. Well, others may have enjoyed read variety of books and then presenting what they read in a variety of creative ways I on the other hand did not. For me, this was a long and hard process to even get through what people would consider an easy book. Not only did I struggle with reading longer words

Instruction Concurrent with improvement and enhancements to the Region 16 written curriculum, I will work collaboratively with building leaders to ensure that teachers implement the written curriculum with fidelity through the application of high-quality instruction. If appointed the next Region 16 Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment, I will prioritize direct observations of instruction districtwide. As part of my observations, I will investigate the following: • The alignment between

As I have before, I want to open this reflection by commenting on how much quality, worthwhile experience I am getting through my time in the middle school classroom. I have observed many different times, and at many different grade levels, but never have I spent as much time as I have this semester with one single teacher and class. I have been able to make genuine connections with the students, and I have witnessed valuable instruction and classroom management from the teacher. Having spent so

I previously stated a general idea of my assessment for my future classroom in a previous assignment. But in this assignment, I will breakdown the specifics and values of each assessment and go into detail about assessments that I did not address for the complete breakdown of my classroom learning. As a math teacher, I know that math is a pretty ridged subject in comparison to other subjects and the summative assessments come fast and numerous. I have had some math teachers who I feel are my mentors

Homework is defined as “tasks assigned to students by school teachers that are intended to be carried out during nonschool hours” (Voorhees).

We went to play a soccer tournament when I was in class nine. It was organized by PABSON (a school union of our district). It was the

At the beginning of this class, I had very little confidence in my ability to convey my ideas through writing. Now that I have reached the end of this course, I have learned many techniques and skills that have helped me with my various writing projects throughout the semester as well as my final research project. The first course outcome that I really worked toward throughout the semester is being able to engage with texts critically and to incorporate the ideas from those texts into my own work

The HPL checking student understanding during and at the conclusion of the lesson was a bit more challenging than I had anticipated. To begin with, I know that I did not do the “check for understanding” pieces that I had incorporated into my lesson. Before reading the book, I was going to have students give me a thumbs up if they could describe to me what a problem was in a story and a thumbs down if they didn’t know how to describe what a problem in the story is. I still asked students to explain

Last, I will discuss how I will incorporate this knowledge in my future training endeavors. Blood pressure is defined as the force exerted by the blood against the inner walls of
