Classroom Management PlanI am a strong believer in establishing classroom routines and working with students to create classroom guidelines rather than depending upon discipline to manage a classroom. I also believe in allowing students to experience the natural consequences of their actions, so they may develop good habits that are useful in other elements of their lives. For example, a student may choose not to pick up notes from a day they missed, but by doing so they will recognize the content is more difficult to understand. Below is a document that details my classroom management philosophy, my management plan for the first five days of class, specific routines and guidelines I plan to establish, and other information related to my management style.
This is a sample syllabus that I will provide students so that they understand the expectations for our classroom. I plan to use it as a basic structure and change it to fit specific curriculum and school-wide policies.

Learning Preferences: DifferentiationOne way that I plan to scaffold appropriately for my students is to provide them with a learning preferences inventory at the beginning of the year. This also helps students begin to think metacognitively. Below is a sample learning preference inventory I created that may be adjusted based on the grade level I teach.

I also received training in technology integration, using the TPACK, SAMR, and TIM models. Below is an example of a technology-integrated PBL (project-based learning) lesson plan using the TIM (Technology Integration Matrix) format.

Reading in English ClassIn Reading in the Content Area, we discussed that different subject areas require different types of reading. Below is an overview for two lessons: one lesson is to teach students how to read a grammar textbook and the other is a lesson to teach students how to read a narrative piece from a literature textbook.
