I really like your id...This comment is for Denise.<br /><br />I really like your ideas of the centers and the color coded assignments. I also like the programs you want to use. Have you ever thought about writing a grant for the things you need. It seems like you have all of the components of proposal... What is the project? Who will use it? How will it be implemented? You have shown the percentage of your school; your school results. Check your school and your district and find out about writing grants. I think you may have some luck there.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872786113736080450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6983887408506966042.post-55113135574364266512010-09-15T14:51:14.175-07:002010-09-15T14:51:14.175-07:00My experience is to not ask an open-ended question...My experience is to not ask an open-ended question. Set up parameters, such as - which is better for you, morning or afternoon? When is your prep period? I'd like to schedule a meeting during your prep period.<br /><br />For observation, which day this week would be best for you? Are you giving any exams this week? Which is your favorite class? Which class do you feel most confident about? Which class has the most attentive students? Etc. It's always best to see them in a situation where they feel most successful or enjoy the most.<br /><br />Marnie Schwartz, MATMarnie S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06712436495494737489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6983887408506966042.post-50253536070820202412010-09-15T14:09:49.833-07:002010-09-15T14:09:49.833-07:00I need to find a way to approach teachers without ...I need to find a way to approach teachers without appearing to step on their toes so to speak. It has been suggested that I just walk into classes unannounced. I do not feel comfortable with that one since I feel it doesn't show respect for the teacher. I am continuing to debated creating a blog site that is private so that teachers need not fear that an administrator or another teacher might read it. Maybe I could take suggestions from them on how they would like it set up though I don't believe any of them blog. A blog could serve as a sounding board for their concerns, suggestions, ideas, etc. as well as a central location where they could access any materials I find that I feel they might be interested in viewing. Has anyone out there ever used a blog with colleagues? If so, how did it go? Any suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks.<br /><br />Denise<br />www.ellteacherpros.comDenise Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06839471209132611813noreply@blogger.com
