Observations

Please write a quick summary of who you visited and what you saw or a copy of the thank you note you sent to the teacher you visited.

Final Reflections

Before you write this please take the time to read through all of the blogs written by you and your classmates. This is an opportunity to think about how your thinking has changed in terms of teaching and how your thinking impacts what you do in the classroom. What do you think that you didn't think before? What are you more aware of in your teaching when working with struggling students All of your students? How does content play into this thinking?

These are just a few questions to get you started in your reflection. You do not need to answer every question. You just need to reflect on your practices and define them in writing. We will also be reading these at our last class. Remember, the sky is the limit. You can write this ANY way that makes sense to you!! (poetry, songs, drama, letters etc.) Let me know if you have any questions!

Free Choice

Take some time to write and reflect on anything you are thinking about in the area of literacy. Perhaps we can even get a conversation going on line here as you might decide to respond to what someone else wrote as well. I am curious as to what you are thinking about and why!

One Thing...

What is one thing you know and believe about teaching and learning? What is that one thing that you would fight for? What do you know about this one thing and how does it impact your decisions each day?
