Man, this year was a tough one for me. I had to focus all my time and energy on my tough class, but I thankfully had very supportive admin to help me out.
I wrapped up the school year in June. The next week I helped our district for a week looking at our math curriculum and assessments and making sure everything was aligned with our prioritized standards etc.
My Oma from Germany has been here for 4 weeks and has one more left before she leaves, so I've been spending time with her and my parents these last few weeks.
At the end of July, I'm getting trained to be a trainer for constructing meaning, tied with Systematic ELD.
In other exciting news, I've been placed with a student teacher. She'll be in my room from our work week in August, through April.
Also, I'm an ambassador for Creative Teaching Press this year! I think that's the update for now and I can't wait to get back to blogging and sharing ideas!
I've had tough classes, and I'm sure you're so glad to be on summer vacation. Sounds like you have a lot to look forward to with having a student teacher and being a brand ambassador - good for you!
