I had the wonderful opportunity to observe our students learn the intricate details of acids and bases in chemistry.  The class was full of cooperative and hands-on scientific learning.  The challenging material was made comprehensible through the use of visuals and activities that allowed students to draw upon the resources provided through scaffolded instruction and cooperative grouping. Stephanie’s rapport with the students and emphasis on language learning was excellent.

Stephanie is incredibly calm in her class!  Her students are respectful and attentive.  She does a fantastic time asking a lot of questions and involving all of her students (sometimes with the use of Penelope's translation).
The material in Stephanie's class is easy to read, and she uses diagrams, text emphasis, and translations to help her students understand.
Stephanie uses the document camera to show students examples and what to do, rather than relying on them to just read or listen.  Her physical demonstrations make it much easier for her kids to follow!
Stephanie builds into her students by reminding them of past successes in her class!
Stephanie makes sure to check in with each lab group as they are working...her students are responsible and respectful of the class materials/equipment!
Stephanie maintains an even-keeled and approachable attitude no matter how frustrating some of the students can be!

Mich does an INCREDIBLE JOB of differentiating activities for her World Studies students!  The thoughtfulness and effort that goes into her lessons is amazing!  She obviously cares about each student's learning of the material, and she holds each student accountable.  Even more, she pushes them to challenge themselves.  Great job, Mich!

It was great to see Jennifer’s El students get actively engaged in discussions about amendment rights. The learning environment of a democratic, free speaking classroom comes across in her thoughtful teaching and the comfort level her students have in expressing themselves.  It was nice to witness the students have fun in a Quizlet Live activity which helped bring their learning together.  I learned a lot.  Thanks!

I was so impressed with Stephanie's Chemistry Class. She obviously has a great relationship with the students, and is able to maintain a positive and productive environment. I was especially impressed with her patience in responding to questions and redirecting students when necessary, good sense of humor, and efforts to provide well thought out science activities that were clearly directed to also encourage the development of English reading, writing and vocabulary skills! It was fun to watch many of my own students in a completely different class, and I definitely have ideas to take back- thanks for letting me visit!

This class means business! Kevin's passion for helping ALL of the students in this packed classroom is evident. Amazing job getting all students were actively trying to learn and practice the language with you. I will definitely take back some of these language practices back to my room to help my students with the language with the content. Thank you for the opportunity to watch!

I observed Matt's 8th period math class and was so impressed by his ability to remain calm and responsive to the variety of skills and needs of the students in his class.  He is a great teacher and this is enhanced by his ability to know and to connect with his students.  What a great experience to share a class of his!

Allison has such a great relationship with the students in her resource. It's obvious that they like and respect her and she balances her English and Spanish speaking so seamlessly. Thanks for letting me visit!

Veena's Biology class definitely has a relaxed-yet structured vibe that makes the kids feel comfortable but also makes them aware of the work they are expected to finish in class. I was super impressed at how Veena was able to balance these two different needs. Great job!
