Observations:
This week there was a half- day so I got to see how the teachers spent their days with out kids. When I arrived the second teachers were having a meeting about the curriculum for next year and what they have to do to finish out for the end of the year. It was a good chance to see what goes on behind the scenes. I learned that there is a lot of planning that has to be done well ahead of time for the whole grade level to be on the same page.
Learning Experiences:
I learned how the teachers plan for the next year, each of them take a subject and report to the others about improvements from last year and discuss what to do for next year. I also learned about how the teachers use data to compare how well their students did on a test with the other kids in their grade. There was one question that was widely missed in every class so they decided on how they would reteach it if necessary or if it was a wording error.
Reflections:
Being in the school so much it brings up my memories from when I was there and how much everything has changed. The kids are learning all the skills and information at a much younger age which I find very fascinating.
Stories to Share:
I'm really looking forward to my full day experience this Friday! I can't wait to see what really goes on in the classroom all day long.
