The following items are a summary of what we discussed in class yesterday, Friday, Sept. 30:
- Kilreen and Jen - You will start doing your weekly reflections this next week. I will send you a separate email about the specific requirements.
- Margaret, Angela, Marlene, Monique & Dakota - You will not be required to submit a weekly reflection yet because you have not started teaching lessons. I'm going to visit with your methods teachers (Leah, Lezlie, Brenda, Theresa and Sheridan) on Wednesday. If they require you to journal, I won't require the emails, only the reflection piece of your lesson plan. The only reason we emailed reflections last semester is because some of you were not in methods courses. You are all in methods this semester.
- A reminder again to schedule your Praxis tests. So far Dakota and Marlene have theirs scheduled. As discussed, and posted on the CEDAR blog, you must TAKE these tests before applying for spring semester and you must PASS these tests before applying for student teaching in February, 2017. Except for Kilreen and Jen, the rest of you will be student teaching fall 2017 if you stay on plan.
- Remember we are not meeting next Friday, Oct. 7 at 10 am. We discussed in class on Friday that we didn't have a need to meet as a group, however, you are always able to meet with me individually during the week.
- If you were not in class this past Friday, you are required to create a list of the planning requirements for each one of your classes. Identify the total number of units and lessons you are required to write for each one of your classes and put them all together on one document (list or table). This is a good way for you to look at the "big picture" planning for the semester so you don't gt overwhelmed. Leah wants copies of this assignment from each one of you so I will share them with her.
