D. Professional Growth Reflection and Growth Plan

  D.1 My Growth As A Teacher I used to believe that being a math teacher involved showing others how to solve math problems and perhaps pointing out connections that I’ve discovered that connect math concepts. Through my teaching experiences and training at Western Governors University, I’ve come to learn that there is a lot more involved to help students master new mathematics skills. Not only must I have a firm grasp on my content, I must be able to accommodate and adjust according to the ever-varying needs of all students. As a teacher, I have found that the majority of students need much more support than simply listening to a lecture in order to master mathematics concepts. They need practice, feedback, then more practice. After a weekend or long break, reminders!  Before our trigonometry unit, the Secondary Math III teachers in our department gave a pre-assessment. We later met and considered what questions the students answered correctly and what questions the stude...

Educational technology that facilitates student learning

Choosing educational technology that facilitates student learning can be a daunting task for a new teacher. There are many software programs available, and one may not know where to start. I recommend speaking with your team to find out about the programs that are well known in your school. Your students may already be familiar with some software programs, and it may be a good starting place for you.  For example, when I started at my first teaching job, all the students were already experts at using Kahoot. As I tried to find my way through the new-to-me program, my students were able to help guide me and show me what they liked about the program, and bring me up to speed with the program's capabilities. Since then, I have learned that Kahoot can be used for many different aspects of the student learning experience - such as practice, assessment, even creative projects.  As a next step, I would like to offer three resources that can be used to research educational technology ...

E. Evidence and Commentary of Classroom Practices

Image
E.1 Academic Language I created this list to print and display in my classroom. Each box represents a standard size printed page: There are lots of terms that we use in math class that we don’t hear anywhere else, such as x-intercept. There are other terms that we use in math class that have a different meaning than if you were to hear them outside of math class, such as domain. Students that have never learned the mathematical context of these vocabulary words will need instruction to help them understand the meanings and start to incorporate them in their own communication. In order to aid in the instruction of academic language, I print the new vocabulary and display it in the classroom. This helps student learning of academic language because they can see the new word in addition to hearing the word . With practice students will be able to use the new vocabulary themselves, in verbal and written form.  In the future I might include less vocabulary terms . Students are sup...
