Planning and Preparation
First Year
During my first year of teaching, I will
improve my content knowledge by
attending online courses at the
community college, reading the
textbook, and researching. Passing the
online courses and being able to help my
students with detailed questions without
having to look up the answers on the
internet or text book will measure my
content knowledge.
5 Years
In my 5th year of teaching, I will have
improved every lesson and activity to
where all students are fully engaged by
attending professional development
courses and researching engagement
strategies. This will be measured by
students work samples and principal
observations.
Classroom Environment
First Year
During my first year of teaching, I will
improve the organization of physical
space within the classroom. I will
improve this aspect by making sure my
classroom space is safe and assessable
for all students. By reading classroom
management books I will be able to learn
the most efficient ways of setting up a
classroom. This will be measured by the
students behavior.
5 Years
In my 5th year of teaching, I will improve
the establishing of a culture for learning
in my classroom. By attending courses
and seminars I will be learning way to
improve the importance of content and
students having pride in their work. This
will be measured by peer review,
students reviews and students projects.
 Instruction
First Year
During this school year I will improve in
using questioning and discussion
techniques by observing master
teachers, researching how to form open
questions, and continuing further
education. I will use strategies to create
fun and relevant group discussions. This
will be measured by students
participation and in class discussions,
assessments and self-reflection.
5 Years
In my 5th year of teaching I will improve
in using assessment in instruction. I will
create my lessons and activities based on
their assessments to ensure the students
acquire the specific information. I will do
this by meeting with my department
chair, planning elaborate lesson plans
and student feedback. This will be
measured by student reviews, and both
pre and post assessments.
Professional Responsibilities
First Year
In my first year of teaching I would like
to improve on reflecting on my teaching.
In this first year I want to be able to
reflect on all lessons and be able to apply
it to my future classes. I want to be able
to think on my feet and edit my lesson
plans before the start of the next period.
By principal reviews and online courses
about learning strategies I will be able to
reflect on my teaching. Student work,
exit tickets, and assessments will
measure this.
5 Years
In my 5th year of teaching I will hope to
improve mu participation in the
professional community. I plan to be
moving into the administrative field in
year 5 of my career. By getting my
masters degree in education I will learn
the proper knowledge and pedagogical
skills. This will be measured by what
position I will hold within the school and
how I have participated in the school
community.
