It’s that time of year again…exciting, crazy, and overwhelming. Too much to do in too little time, but somehow we always seem to get it done by the time school is over.
Here in Manatee County we are down to our last two weeks!
And, with final exams, award ceremonies, textbook collection etc. it may seem difficult to find the time to do something that I think is very important for every teacher to do.
What is it?
Well, if you’ve been reading my blog posts for a while now then you know that every year around this time I stress the importance of letting the students evaluate their teachers.
This is a GREAT way to better prepare yourself for next year. Yes…I know…right now the last thing you want to think about is next school year, but by taking the time to let your students evaluate your teaching, you will easily be able to determine what worked and what didn’t work from the perspective of your students…and who better to let you know.
Here is the evaluation form I will be using this year: http://www.TeachingTipsMachine.com/TeacherEvaluationForm.pdf
