A teacher engages in career-long professional learning and ongoing critical reflection to improve teaching and learning, and completes professional learning on the code of professional conduct for teachers and teacher leaders.
Reflection - Budgeting Time
Early on in my practicum I struggled to find a pace that best worked for me and the students, as will as watching the clock to ensure that I left enough time for consolidation of learning at the end. My teaching associate and I discussed many different strategies to try, and my personal favourite was having a digital timer up on the board. Not only could I see how much time was left, so could the students. Reflecting back on my lessons I will continue to work on this aspect of my teaching!
Over the course of the practicum, Kaelyn showed noticeable improvement in lesson timing and pacing. She also demonstrated excellent knowledge and effective use of technology to enhance instruction and student engagement.
