positive classroom environment, smooth routines in place, high expectations and really meaning business.
Ms. Eagle is highly reflective and participated in discussion of possible upgrades to the lesson. She is curious
to see the results of her SLO and whether students increased by one point or not. She believes this was a fair
and attainable goal (after having an opportunity to analyze the data, the teacher shared that all students
increased by one point). When considering what adjustments she would make for oral presentations next
time, Ms. Eagle shared that a visual piece would be useful and she liked the idea of adding audience
participation by asking a question or two of the presenter after he or she delivers information to the class. She
explained her late work policy, how she took notes during presentations, the research process for this
assignment, and updated the observer on her SST class, application for a Master’s program, and working on
the musical with the music teachers. The goal for professional growth for Ms. Eagle is to continue to
build a repertoire of technology skills and applications to assist in formative assessments.
