As I focus in on the year's goals, I am learning a lot about my students and their needs related to success.
Last week many found the homework exercises difficult. The class, in general, clearly needs more teaching in the topic which I'll provide today. Then I'll give students time to catch-up on practice expectations with teacher support. I'll also review the home study routines with all students. I like this intense focus on practice because it is helping me to focus in on each student and develop my ability to coach each child forward. This is good.
With regard to the environmental education goal, I'll work with colleagues this week to prepare for our naturalist coach visit, update student science journals, share a video that teaches the related standards with depth, and support student learning with a related writing assignment.
This is a good week to focus in on my professional goals related to practice and our environmental education program.
