-words of Wisdom(ish) from the Mentor
Every teacher, no matter how amazing they may be have had complete disasters in the classroom. New and Veteran alike will have struggles in the classroom and will have days they walk out frustrated. Sometimes we can pinpoint the issue, sometimes we can't. The video below is an honest and open look at a highly accomplished teacher struggling. I hope you find the video to be useful and an area to learn from.
SCHEDULE YOUR SESSIONS!!!
As fouth quarter is beginning I really want to encourage each of you to get your mentoring sessions scheduled. For you to complete mentoring and come back for year two you MUST complete the mentoring work. Get it on the calender. My schedule is listed out to May so schedule all of your sessions if you want to..

ETM's - don't neglect them
There are three types of ETMs and numerous titles from which to choose. ETMs can be completed online or in face-to-face sessions.
As a note..unless currently scheduled, there will be no more PEER observation ETM. The funding availability has dried up.
A full listing of the ETMs available can be found at http://www.bluevalleyk12.org/etm.
