No matter what document I am currently working with/on, i am always taking notes on it for future improvements. This is an example from a test. 

After almost every lesson, my mentor teacher and i debrief about how the lesson went. Most of the time there are then changes that get made to the powerpoint slides. 

I was incredibly proactive creating, distributing, collecting, and cataloging student video slips. They were all returned to me before semar even started. 

This was a trip that some of my students went on. 

This was a trip that the department chair took her students on, and I helped chaperone. In the middle of the trip, my old supervisor at PWD came to the site and gave my students a brief talk about the ecology of the pond and how it was constructed. 

I joined my Mentor Teacher in the Halloween Costume Contest where I was asked to be on the judges panel. 

Joined the Philadelphia Regional Noyce Scholar Program to learn about sustainability and cultural responsibility. 

Stayed after school and gave up lunch periods to work with students who asked for extra help at least two times a week. 

Seminar writing assignment #1; Leson Analysis

Infinite Campus, the District's gradebook software, is kept up to date. Occasionally, I will go in and create or grade assignments and surprise my Mentor Teacher at how prompt I was. 

Not only was I present for parent-teacher conferences, I lead some of them. I used that opportunity to ask that the parents or guardians of higher-performing students become peer tutors in the science department's tutoring program. Unprompted, I exported sets of student names for each period and made space for notes for before and after conferences were held. This demonstrated to parents how seriously I took meeting with them, as well as created a record of things to follow up anout for me later on. 

I joined my Mentor Teacher as he lead his students on several D&D adventures

I took and passed the praxis with a score of 159, 19 points higher than required for certification. 

Not only were the other teachers supportive professionally, but i would call them my friends. We genuinely enjoyed each other's company. This photo was taken after we completed an escape room after a staff PD in September. 

Successfully navigated two lockdowns (one real and one drill), 3 fire drills, and adhered to the rest of the school handbook and safety policies. Notes take on school handbook before starting on day one. 

I participated in the Science Department's Peer Observation program. I invited the other physics teacher we share a room with, as well as the Science Department Chair. They were both impressed with my progress. I received many compliments from them and other staff. On one occasion, one peer said "you are one of the better ones", which was high praise coming from them.
