4th Grade Self Reflection

Decent Essays
I selected this piece as evidence because I have a strong knowledge of the important concepts of 4th grade. I have studied the CCSS and strands in depth as one of the building leaders/trainers for Expeditionary Learning, balanced literacy and Thinking Maps. I have become an expert in the concepts and disciplines of those concepts, this knowledge was evident when I help write the 4th grade report card. It also is reflected in my plans and practice as I am able to anticipate students misconceptions.
