6713 Final Reflection

My GAME plan is going to be a work in progress all school year. Since we have not begun the year yet, I have not been able to reflect and work on making my students more creative learners. However, I have begun to think of ways to incorporate new ideas into each lesson to make my classroom more inquiry based learning to spark their creativity. We have our first staff meeting in two weeks and I am going to take the time to share my GAME plan with the other teachers in my department and see if maybe they would like to work on the same plan as me. Having a colleague work on the GAME plan as well would be a great way to see where the adjustments need to be.

In regards to the professional development GAME plan I have done about as much as I can do until our first staff meeting. By coming up with an email database of the entire math teachers it has simplified the amount of time it would normally take to locate each and every math teacher in the school. I hope that the other departments in my school will like this idea and maybe do the same. I would love to get an email database of all of my students in my own classrooms this year as well so that I can send grades home electronically and reduce the amount of phone calls that are usually made before the marking period ends.
