Welcome to Student Teaching!

Being a reflective practitioner is a signature characteristic of effective teachers. This semester, you'll hone your reflective skills by writing about your teaching life each day via a blog post, right here on Red Hot Teaching '12.

Happy teaching! Happy writing!

Day 4

Day 4 had a very smooth start. Word has gotten around that I am the person who put ms Perez' email addresses in so that they show both the parent and child's names, so I spent my morning going from room to room showing the other teachers in the building.  I also have become really close with the nurses, you could call me a "regular" and they had me talk to the janitor about the best arrangement for the room.  So as far as knowing the other professionals in the building I have been doing quite well.

I've been taking the time to get to know the children while doing their math assessments.  I asked them who they had played with at recess and if they were having a good time. It was nice to make this connection with them.

As a whole, my week has gone very well. I have completely taken over hallway transitions and I will take over morning meeting on Monday.  I plan to use the smart board for the meeting for the first time with the students.
