reflecting on teaching and assessing

Teachers must acquire the skill to reflect upon their teaching. It is imperative to identify strengths and areas for growth in order to continue to develop as a professional.

– After implementing your mini-lesson, reflect and evaluate the effectiveness of the lesson and assessments.

In 250-500 words, discuss:

  1. The pre- and post-assessment results
  2. The effectiveness of the lesson and assessments for the students’ outcomes
  3. One future academic goal for the students, based on their performance
  4. Individual teaching abilities, highlighting a strength and an area for growth


– IN ADDITION, create a 100-250 word handout for one of the students’ families, explaining their student’s current literacy skills and abilities, and 1-2 ways families can support their student’s literacy development at home.
