September
Year 2
During the month of September you will be working on your self assessment for the second year. This is a great time to reflect on what you learned the prior year and determine which areas you would like to focus on this year. You will also be setting up a time with your mentor to complete and informal observation. This will take place after your first meeting and will be followed by a reflection meeting.You will also complete a Professional Growth Plan developed by you and your mentor. This is based off the Self Assessment and IPDP goals that have been created.
Finally during this time you will begin to collect student data for the class profile. This year the focus will be on student data and it is important to collect it early and often to determine student growth and how it affects the Instructional Cycle. Begin to think about the Instruction Cycle as this will begin towards the end of the month.
