Week 6

Week of September 28, 2009
This week was a short week because there was an ISE day on Friday. During the ISE day, teachers learned about the acuity testing that we are to perform in the near future. Also, we had a faculty meeting where we were told of all the important events and dates that are upcoming in the near future. The teachers discussed topics of concern, as well. It was during this time that I realized how important these kinds of days are for teachers. During a normal work day, teachers are generally too busy to get together and talk about these things. It's nice that they set aside a specific day for these activities. My host teacher also used this day as a housekeeping day because we caught up on lesson planning, grading, and posting grades.
