When I think of assessment these pictures sum up my thoughts. A goal for me this semester is to learn more about assessment and see what the kids know without stressing them out about standardized tests. I also want to explore classroo management more. It is overwhelming to think about my own classroom but I think educational psych will help with that. I am concerned about the CSEL but I think it will make more sense as the semester moves along.
Hey Lauren! I get stressed out when I think of assessments and want to learn ways to teach my students but not "teach to the test." I've been in schools where all the teachers care about are the end of the year tests because that is what the school judges their teaching ability on. Hopefully we can tackle it when the time comes!
ReplyDeleteI also want to learn more about classroom management and how to handle a class that could be filled with students who aren't strong listeners and who can tend to be on the wild side.
Hopefully it will be a fun semester and we will learn a lot!
