The aspects of the week I found to be most valuable was planning and creating lessons for the three days I will be absent this next week. It’s even more work than planning for school when I will be there. Making sure your lessons are perfect for the substitute or whoever is covering your class knows, so they know exactly what to do. Going through each class lesson by lesson making sure the students are prepared for your absence. I hope that when I get back the students will be on task and up to date with the information for the class.
If I could change one thing about this past week it would be to teach the introduction lesson to access slower than the manner in which I taught it. Access is something students are not familiar with and most have no idea what a database is, as a result when the students received their quiz grade they were disappointed. I blame myself for their poor quiz grade because they are the first class to get each lesson in access, as I teach it more and more the lesson becomes much better. My forth period class did terrible on their quizzes but 5th and 10th did excellent. I create a new quiz add more material and allow them to retake it and allow them to choose the better score.
