What was a highlight during the first week of school? What was your biggest shock? What would you do differently next year during the first week of school? What made you feel supported during the first week of school?
My Reflection: During the first few weeks of school I was so excited to be starting my career and eager to know all of my students. I had this amazing plan, that I could learn a little bit about every single student, which I did! However, I forgot everything by the next time I saw them. I didn't realize how overwhelming it is to get to know and remember every single student. I called one student the wrong name for weeks because he never corrected me. Now we are able to joke about it, so in the long run it helped build our teacher-student relationship!
