Report
Ms Fuller was involved in the planning, implementation and monitoring of students undertaking Project Based
Learning. While teaching and mentoring students during these lessons, she developed a good rapport through
her care and patience. Ms Fuller engaged with the students and made every effort to help and support those
that she was working with.
Ms Fuller was extremely flexible during her experience, a quality that is extremely important when teaching
and working within the Project Based Learning world. Not only did she teach, mentor and help students, she
worked well with the Year 7 Team, providing assistance as required.
Ms Fuller/s resource planning and preparation was of the highest quality. All of the resources she produced
were critiqued and given feedback by the team. Ms Fuller was always open to feedback and used this to
improve upon aspects of her resources, when needed. The resources that Ms Fuller did create were utilised
and taught by members of the Year 7 PBL Team in all year 7 classes.
Away from the classroom, Ms Fuller engaged in professional dialogue with the Year 7 PBL team and performed
additional duties within the faculty.
During her Professional Practice 1, Ms Fuller proved herself to be an important memberof the faculty. We
have seen her grow in confidence and ability. We wish Ms Fuller all the very best as she pursues her teaching
career.
