Analysis of Student Learning

Professional Development Activities

• Parent Teacher Conference (January 26)• In-service Days (January 3 & March 9)• IEP Meeting (March 14)• Grade Level Meeting to Plan Remediation (April 11)• Faculty Meetings (monthly)• Grade Level Meetings with Principal

Professional Organization Memberships

PhilosophyThen Now

• Classroom Management – Students assist with making classroom rules

• Differentiation because I thought I should, but I didn’t fully understand the benefits or goals of differentiation

• Pre-Assessment was a component of my lesson plans

• Centers for students in grades K - 2

• Classroom Management – Develop rules and expectations in advance

• Differentiation because I believe in it and now understand that it does not lower expectations

• Pre-Assess to develop my lesson plans

• Centers are beneficial in any grade level

Always – Create a nurturing and safe learning environment for all

Conclusion - My Plan to Develop as A Professional

Educator• Desire to teach in a K – 5 classroom• If no teaching jobs are available, continue working as a paraprofessional or a certified substitute teacher• Volunteer for After School Tutoring Program• Continue researching and learning about the new Common Core Curriculum• Continue researching different teaching methods and programs through the internet, educational publications, and classroom observations• Possibly pursue a Master’s Degree after at least one full year in my own classroom
