How
did
you
spend
your
time
this
week?
What
responsibilities
did
you
have?
This
week,
all
of
the
English
classes
(Gen.
Ed
and
Sped.)
began
to
wrap
up
the
unit.
The
students
were
finishing
writing
their
research
papers
and
turning
them
in.
The
students
also
finished
Night
and
completed
the
CFA
for
the
district
on
the
topics
of:
Claim/thesis,
reasoning
and
evidence.
There
were
many
times
this
week
where
we
pulled
the
special
ed.
students
out
into
a
different
room.
For
their
papers,
we
took
those
students
to
a
conference
room
in
the
library
where
it
was
quieter
and
helped
them
finish
their
papers.
They
were
able
to
get
a
lot
more
done
than
usual
with
fewer
distractions.
We
also
pulled
them
into
our
classroom
during
the
CFA.
We
read
the
assessment
out
loud
to
the
students
and
they
had
extended
time
to
work
on
it
as
well.
I
In
the
self-contained
English
class,
the
students
finished
Night
and
continued
to
work
on
their
research
papers.
I'm
still
teaching
bell
to
bell,
which
is
going
very
well!
Lastly,
we
had
conferences
this
week.
Not
many
parents
showed
up,
which
didn't
really
surprise
me...but
the
parents
that
did
show
up
came
to
talk
with
my
mentor
teacher
and
I.
I
let
my
mentor
teacher
do
most
of
the
talking
but
I
did
introduce
myself
and
add
in
a
few
comments
during
each
conversation.
I
learned
how
to
check
students
grades
online
and
how
the
process
of
conferences
works.
What
were
your
most
satisfying
experiences?
What
were
your
most
challenging
experiences?
My
most
satisfying
experiences
this
week
involved
the
students
completing
their
research
papers.
It
has
been
such
a
huge
project
for
these
students
and
a
challenge
for
all
of
us.
I
had
a
few
moments
with
students
as
they
were
writing
their
papers
that
impressed
me.
I
tried
to
talk
with
students
as
they
were
writing
their
papers
and
help
them
to
avoid
plagiarism.
Getting
them
to
put
ideas
in
their
own
words
was
hard
but
there
were
a
few
students
that
were
very
successful.
Talking
aloud
about
what
they
wanted
to
write
helped
them
to
form
clear
statements
before
they
put
them
down
on
paper.
The
biggest
challenge
this
week
was
with
my
self
contained
English
class.
Behavior
has
been
the
biggest
issue
lately.
A
few
of
the
students
haven't
been
listening
or
respectful
of
me
or
the
other
students.
There
were
a
few
times
when
I
had
students
stand
up
in
the
middle
of
class
and
yell
across
the
room
during
instruction.
My
mentor
teacher
pulled
them
out
of
the
room
immediately
and
had
a
discussion
with
them
about
their
behavior.
Some
days
were
better
than
others
after
these
incidents.
What
are
your
plans
for
the
upcoming
week?
Next
week
will
be
a
short
week
due
to
Spring
break.
Our
plans
are
to
make
sure
each
student
is
done
with
their
research
paper.
The
students
in
gen.
ed.
English
will
be
watching
The
Boy
in
The
Striped
Pajamas
to
end
the
Holocaust/genocide
unit.
If
there
are
students
who
have
not
finished
their
papers,
they
will
not
be
allowed
to
watch
the
movie
and
we
will
pull
them
out
to
help
them
finish.
With
the
self-contained
English
class,
you
will
observe
a
lesson
next
week.
I
am
going
to
have
the
students
do
some
journaling
as
well
as
a
gallery
walk
about
the
Holocaust.
These
students
will
also
be
completing
a
final
assessment,
but
a
different
one
than
the
gen
ed.CFA.
They
are
going
to
respond
to
a
writing
prompt/scenario
about
the
Holocaust.
If
the
students
get
those
things
done
and
there
is
extra
time,
I
have
a
Holocaust
jeopardy
game
planned
for
the
day
before
break.
This
will
serve
as
their
"reward"
for
working
so
hard
in
the
unit!
Supervisor
Feedback:
I
always
enjoy
your
logs.
They
show
you
think
like
a
teacher!
You
celebrate
when
students
are
successful
and
know
when
things
aren't
just
like
you
want
them
to
be.
I'm
impressed.

How
did
you
spend
your
time
this
week?
What
responsibilities
did
you
have?
This
week
the
students
started
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird
in
the
general
ed.
classes
and
the
self-contained
class.
In
the
self-contained
class
I
had
my
students
do
a
few
mini-lessons
to
build
their
knowledge
on
the
historical
context
of
the
time
period.
The
students
learned
about
Emmett
Till,
racial
disparity
and
the
issues
of
prejudice
and
discrimination.
I
had
my
students
watch
a
video
on
Emmett
Till
and
they
seemed
to
be
very
interested
in
the
story,
as
Emmett
Till
was
14
years
old,
close
in
age
to
my
students.
The
self-contained
class
started
a
KWL
activity
as
well.
I
read
a
one-page
teaser
to
the
book
and
had
the
students
write
down
facts
(What
they
know)
and
write
down
questions
(What
they
want
to
know)
I
was
amazed
how
well
this
activity
went!
I
also
had
my
students
do
some
vocabulary
work
for
chapter
1
of
the
book.
This
week
our
data
team
also
began
to
use
the
IB
(International
Baccalaureate)
format
for
unit
planning
as
we
planned
out
our
activities
for
this
unit.
In
the
co-taught
class
I
have
been
taking
on
more
responsibilities
as
well.
I
have
lead
activities
and
facilitated
in
class
readings.
What
were
your
most
satisfying
experiences?
What
were
your
most
challenging?
My
most
satisfying
experiences
were
seeing
my
students
connect
to
this
unit
already
and
seeing
their
genuine
interest.
The
themes
of
prejudice,
discrimination
and
racial
disparity
hit
close
to
home
for
many
of
my
students
at
Hoover
and
I
think
that
discussing
these
issues
are
so
important.
I
can
see
that
students
have
knowledge
on
these
issues
already
and
I
want
to
keep
building
on
that
with
them.
The
most
challenging
continues
to
be
behavior
and
classroom
management
but
I
work
on
it
everyday
and
some
days
are
better
than
others!
What
are
your
plans
for
next
week?
Next
week
we
will
get
further
into
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird.
I
have
plans
to
finish
up
a
KWL
activity
I
had
my
students
start
last
week.
We
will
be
reading
chapters
2
and
3
of
the
book,
and
doing
a
characterization
chart.
I
will
be
sending
you
a
plan
for
Monday
as
well
for
when
you
come
to
observe.
Supervisor Feedback:
I
am
really
impressed
by
your
backgrounding
of
the
students
into
the
time
period
and
the
social
setting.
That's
excellent
thinking,
and
very
necessary!
When
you
interview
and
they
ask,
"What
examples
of
how
you
help
students
be
successful?",
that's
one
you
can
use.
I
enjoyed
reading
it.
