Reflective Practitioner
As a result of my dive into past classes, I am more cognizant of the ways that I have benefitted as a teacher in the ASTL program. The chart below organizes some of my thoughts as I reflect on the changes I have made and can still make.
My main area of concern is and has been curriculum and planning, as I never have enough time or resources to tackle them the way that I truly want to. I have spent countless hours and dollars researching and purchasing material that I think will benefit my students, and I am just now starting to take that back to my department. My plan for my capstone project is to synthesize the materials that I have created and units I have structured in a way that makes sense and provides me with a more concrete plan of action for each school year. I am considering all of the constraints I face as I do this, but most importantly focusing on what is best for my students.

I like the idea of a working detention. Makes sense. It is also very smart to borrow another teachers survey.. sharing is caring!
ReplyDeleteI also have the goal of being nicer to my para, it's a true test of patience.
