TAFE Plan 2014-2015

Next year for TAFE, I am looking into Lesson Plan and TAFE Moment to compete in. I feel like I would be very successful in both.

Lesson Plan
I have a great site school teacher that allows me to do anything I would like to do and aids me along the way. Math, especially in middle school is a tough subject to learn and understand, so I feel like, having the correct topic, I can create a fantastic hands-on lesson that note only teaches the kids, but shows them the lesson. I have the time commitment and determination necessary to create a good written lesson and presentation of the lesson.

TAFE Moment
Coming into this year, I did not want to be a teacher, I wanted to be a physical therapist. I was going to be partnered with a trainer to learn more about their career, but the scheduling did not work out. I am so thankful that it did not work out because I discovered the job I am designed for. I would love to share my unique story of being placed in not just a math class, but an inclusion math class with the judges. This would be a great event for me because I can share the passion that I have of my future with the judges.

I plan to manage my time wisely. If I plan my time and stay on schedule, I will not be stressed and overwhelmed when the deadlines are approaching. I will keep in contact with Lexi and start early and be creative, thinking of the kids and not myself.

For service project, I want to work with the retired teachers. We would like to expand the already successful tech time class to other places as well, so teaching them technology would be great because we would be directly giving back to people that have shaped our district.

For leadership positions, I would like to be vice-president of competitions. I have competed in region and state and I understand the importance of being involved in those events. I also understand the importance of the deadlines, so I feel like I would be successful in that position.
