In response to mentor teacher feedback regarding how students record lesson observations, I created a Lesson Observation Record sheet. This resource is now located in student resources in the student portal. Please promote within your units.

With Lesson or Learning Plans, we advise students to use the SOL plans, unless the setting asks them to use a specific plan associated with the setting.

However all assessments that require plans need to be submitted using the SOL template.

Please remind students that all Lesson and Learning Plans need to be completed 24 hours prior to teaching and to share this with their mentor teacher.
