At this stage, provisional educators are looking forward to the next year with greater knowledge and and capacities for teaching.  As they reflect on the previous two years, they will be able to see their growth and work towards making the next year even better.

Encourage Reflection!!!

• While meeting with your provisional educator, reflect on your own year and share ideas for change you are going to make in the coming year.

• Encourage your provisional educator to reflect and make goals as well.  Help him/her be aware of the growth that has occurred over the past two years.  

• Talk about mentoring and encourage your provisional educator to become a trained mentor during their third provisional year. They will be ready to mentor when they are no longer provisional.
