To Whom It May Concern:
It gives me great pleasure to write a letter of reference for Madison Slater. | was
assigned (o supervise Madison in her Early Childhood student teaching placement
during the spring semester of 2018. Madison's placement was in the preschool/pre-k
classroom at Rice Elementary in Wellington, Colorado.
Being placed in my Early Childhood classroom, | was able to observe Madison in
different settings. She was aware of the needs of the children as a whole and as unique
individuals. Her activities were developed around the understandings of three to five
year old children and she used a variety of teaching strategies.
| observed improvement in Madison's classroom management throughout the semester.
Her growth in this area came from her own reflections and through sharing my
observations with her. Madison was able to critique her own teaching along with being
open to listening to my suggestions
Madison is a thoughtful, prepared, conscientious young teacher who works hard and
connects positively with children, families and other staff.
Sincerely,
Ataxy aze-
