Today I was observed by the principal himself. No clues about my evaluation from his poker face. He's good.
The kids leave me no reason to worry. They had insights during the lesson. Most of them payed attention to me and to one another. I liked the story we read and I had participation from everyone whom I called on. I tried to make it fun and keep us moving and nobody fell asleep like yesterday.
I have been stressed. Oh man, it's easy to feel sloppy when you realize your zipper has busted. Cheap pants? Or steady diet of energy drinks and lounge dessert snacks? Teach on, teacher! Even with broken pants I calmed kids down, engaged them, and hopefully taught them. We'll see tomorrow. Tonight, I shop for food!

Can't read his... can't read his... poker face.
ReplyDeleteThanks for gettin' that stuck in mah head. :P
LOL I am obsessed with watching Lady Gaga music video covers. The eval. went well, btw. My princiPAL told me my instruction was strong but my transitions were trouble spots and there was consistently talking going on. I already knew that, but it was good to hear it from a supervisor.
