My prayer for you this week: Lord, Bless the tir My prayer for you this week:

Lord,

Bless the tired teachers who give their hearts to this profession. Who work tirelessly to meet the needs of the students that they teach. Thank you for the special gift of service that you have given them; may they use it to show grace and compassion. May they have strength and endurance to overcome the many challenges that they will face this week.

Lord, bless them.

Carry them.

Give them rest for their weary minds.

And most importantly, allow them to feel the deep gratitude that the world has for the work that they do and the impact that they have on those that they teach.

Amen.
My first experience in teaching was in middle scho My first experience in teaching was in middle school math 🥴. I had an AMAZINGLY organized mentor teacher (shoutout to @liz.c.dykes) that taught me so much about the importance of an organized classroom.

15 years later, I am still utilizing one of her tips: KEEP STUDENTS’ GRADED PAPERS IN FOLDERS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE YEAR!

That time my computer deleted all of my 4th period grades for an ENTIRE 9 weeks.....😳..... yep, that happened...... and I was thankful for this system.

This folder system has come in handy throughout the years and the students appreciate having a “place” for all of their graded assignments.

Blood evidence is the topic for the next few weeks. I will be sharing my curriculum map and some of the activities that I do with my forensics students to teach BlOOD EVIDENCE. I will share to my highlights in the Forensics tab. 😀
Its that time of year- progress checkpoints! Benc Its that time of year- progress checkpoints!

Benchmark exams (or progress checkpoints) are KEY for any grade level or content area. It’s so important to measure growth throughout the year!

I give a quick progress checkpoint at the end of each unit. These benchmarks take less than 20 minutes and feedback is immediate (I use Google Forms).

After taking the benchmark exam, students immediately record their own personal data and analyze that data (see picture). They keep up with this data the entire year and use it to plan their personalized remediation plan at the end of the year.

As my students are measuring their individual data, I am collecting class data that is displayed on the “GOAL-DIGGERS” board in my classroom.

It’s a way for both my students and myself  to measure growth and execute a plan for remediation. It’s the most effective strategy that I have for preparing my students for state exams.

Do you give benchmarks? I’d love to hear your thoughts on progress checkpoints and how (or if) you use them in your classroom.

You’re tired! You’re overwhelmed! You’re w You’re tired!

You’re overwhelmed!

You’re weary!

The tasks are impossible.

If you are feeling this way, it’s very likely that your students share your burdens. Let’s remember... GRACE over GRADES...COMPASSION over CONTENT... PATIENCE over PEDAGOGY
