Week 15 Reflection

What a crazy last week this was! My host teacher was out of town for the week and so I got to teach the entire day's classes. This isn't much different than a normal school day for me, just the addition of AP Biology and credit recovery at the end of the day. It was a great learning experience because I had to deal with every little detail throughout the day. I also didn't have anyone to ask questions or gain approval from when I had to make an important decision.
In anatomy the students took an exam on Tue. and on Wed. we went over the answers. I decided to review some of the questions and allow students who really struggled to correct their answers for some additional points. I wasn't sure of this decision at first and would have liked to have my host teacher's opinion, but I am glad now that I did it. Only about 3/4 of the students took advantage of this opportunity. The ones who did deserved the extra points.
In forensics we finished up the projects and I talked to the librarian about getting them a display in the library. I know a lot of the students are very proud of their work and I wanted them to get the recognition that they deserve! I am working on finishing up a lot right now but I am sad to wrap up the semester! What a great experience this has been...
