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!

Feedback from Supervisor

I think some helpful feedback I got was to work on your assessment section of the lesson plan right after the objectives have been planned out and written  down. When I write lesson plans now I have certain goals in mind, or objectives that I want students to have learned from my lesson. After I write those, I always think about how I am going to assess whether or not the students have learned what I am trying to teach them. After I have thought about and written the assessment section I can work backwards and write the rest of my lesson plan. This ensures that I am going to be able to tell at the end of each lesson if students got the material needed and that I didn't en up forgetting to check for understanding. Another piece of advice I got was to try and move around the room during lessons. I try to be aware of that now when I am teaching to help monitor students and manage the classroom. I also really appreciate taking time to unpack lessons after I have been observed. I get many pieces of advice and can ask questions when I need to.
