Thoughts After Quarter 1

Well another quarter has come and went in Globaloria.  This quarter I felt I have made some good strides overall in how I am teaching and also as a mentor.  The class right now is ahead of where we were last year at this time and it is only a 45 minutes class versus a 90 minute class last year.  For this to happens shows me that I am getting more comfortable in teaching the class.  I have also made a more conscious effort to have my students blog and also to follow the curriculm more closely this year.  I feel that while I am doing a better job of mastering those concepts, I still have much improvment needed in both areas.

The new aspect of Globaloria this year is being a mentor.  It has helped that my mentees are here at DCHS but also it still has challenges.  They both have the task of incorporating Globaloria into a regular classroom.  This task has shown itself to be more difficult at times than any of us could have thought.  But I do give credit to my mentees because they have continued to fight through it and I believe they are starting to see results from their fight.  I just hope they keep working through the difidculties and see the reults that can happen.  I have faith that they will.

Until next time keep up the fight and keep having a GREAT BULLDOG DAY
