You will watch this over and over. It just says it all. Unfortunately reassessment, summative assessments, formative assessments, and all of that is about to invade many nearby school districts (It's too late for my own!).
An acquaintance is on the county grading reform committee, and it appears they are basically adoping most of my county's policies. Don't let this video be the future of education!!
Is this REALLY where education is headed???
As a public educator, I aim to share my story with those interested about what really happens inside today's classroom. I hope my stories inspire, educate, and entertain you, as the calling of teaching is never neat or predictable. Please note that my blog content does not necessarily reflect the viewpoints or beliefs of my school district or colleagues.
Super Teacher's Job is Never Done!
Teaching is the profession that teaches all the other professions. ~ Author Unknown
My goal is to reveal one teacher's humble journey of self-reflection, critical analysis, and endless questioning about my craft of teaching and learning alongside my middle school students.
"The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called 'truth'." ~ Dan Rather
