Monday Meeting

This afternoon was our student teaching meeting on campus from 1:00-5:30.


This morning did not go as smoothly as planned. Last week was super crazy and many changed schedules. I had planned on trying to video tape a lesson for my peer video analysis, but I never enough of a regular schedule. This morning I had my chance to video tape. I combined my two reading groups, even though they are at different levels. At least my group 2 would still be receiving instruction, even if it was not about their own specific book they were reading. The combined group actually did quite well. I pushed them to work a little longer in my group than usual. We covered a lot of information and that helped to get a good foundation for the week. The library transfered my video from the small video tape to a regular tape and it didn't work. None of the technology in the school seemed to be working. The computers were being slow, the online grade book wasn't working, and the video transfer wasn't working. But, as a teacher I have learned to be flexible. I will just pick up my video tomorrow because there is nothing more that I can do today that will help the situation.
