Only two weeks left with students! Where did the time go? I had plans to do so many things, was I successful or not? Think it is time to do some reflection on the year; what things I did, what I didn't, and how did those decisions impact student learning.
This would be a good time to finish my annual report (must start it to finish it, though!) Guess that is a good place to start, and I can use the report to guide my plans for next school year. Stay tuned as I start this process; compiling my report and analyzing my results, and then making new plans.
I know there are things I am happy about; my Battle of the Books event, and new this year, a traveling BOB team. The work I did with a special class for at risk students (it is a Read 180 class, Scholastic, if you know that) to make them more authentic readers and the work with my ELL classes because of the grant we received.
I added new databases and some eBooks to the collection, as well as lots of fiction recommended by students, and put print magazines out as well; not sure that is curation, but it is collection development.
Areas I still need work are building a collaborative atmosphere with my content area teachers; Science and Social Studies are challenging; next year?
Looking over this rambling I realize I have a lot to do in the next two weeks! Yikes - I will continue to share what I am doing and hope you tell me how you are handling some of these things.
Bring on Summer!!
