Daily Reflections
- Remember to write about your day at the end of each teaching day. This should be a collection of thoughts, “a-ha” moments, and critical thinking regarding your teaching You may include thoughts from other parts of your day not just what happened during your lessons. I also want you to include what you learned each time you assessed your students and the feedback you received and provided.
- Provided is a list of questions to help you generate some ideas of what to be looking for in your day and respond in your writing.
