It has been an honor working with you during these first exciting, overwhelming, beautiful months of your teaching career. I learn more about teaching and learning each time I visit with you and your students, and am inspired by all that I see.
Thank you to those of you who sent me things to share!
Things that are WORKING for YOU!
* I collect data on the students on a name chart that I have on a clipboard. I try to only use initials. This helps me to remember or note any problems or good things I saw the students doing. If I need to I use a mini post it to add more to a person's square. I take a whole week's note on it, so I often notate the day of the week it happened when writing down.
* Our school has classroom websites that are password protected (http://manoaschool2-27.weebly.com/) and I also send emails to my parents informing them of what is happening,
* In our student planner, we have a weekly goal/reflection section. Students set their own goals on Monday's, and on Friday's they reflect if they met their goal. We just started filling this section out on our chart.
* This past week we focused on our writing and my students wrote letters and drew pictures to their parents/guardians about what they have learned so far in second grade.
I was proud of the letters they wrote, and how excited they are about writing letters. I look forward to giving the letters to their parents at PTC. :)

These are my students' progressfolios. Each progressfolio has all of their tests and quizzes in them.
