Goal: One of the biggest areas of improvement I needed from Practicum I was incorporation of Indigenous teachings. My goal of Practicum II is incorporating diverse cultures into the classroom is my aim, with a focus on First Nations, Metis, and Inuit cultures (TQS 1f, 2e, 5b, 5c).

Goal: My goal for year three practicum at Annie Foote School is to direct behaviour using a unique, overarching vision of my teaching philosophy while highlighting the ways it has evolved through different experiences. I also want to collaborate and support student learning by working with teachers, students, parents/guardians, and the local community (TQS 1c, 1d, 1e).
Strategies: I want to work on this goal by having meaningful conversations with staff and students as well as parents/guardians to make sure students get the best learning experience while teaching.
Reflection: I believe I completed my goal fairly good. I was able to create a safe and welcoming environment for my students. I was also able to create meaningful relationships with staff, students, and parents/guardians. I was able to attend Parent Teacher Conferences which allowed me to meet families and have a conversation with them about the work their child had done in class. I was also able to make Sootsimans with my students, an Indigenous teaching that was passed down to us by Elder Roy. I wanted to include this teaching as a few of my students were Indigenous and I wanted them to feel connected to the teaching.

Goal: My goal, similar to last semester, is to continue to incorporate a variety of different cultures, with an emphasis on First Nations, Metis, and Inuit cultures, into the classroom. During my three connected lessons, I will incorporate a connection with the book The Girl Who Drank the Moon and indigenous literature and teachings. (TQS 1f, 2e, 5b, 5c).
Reflection: Reflection: Throughout the semester I was able to incorporate different cultures, including my own. I was able to teach the students about Ramadan and a bit about Islam and many of the students enjoyed my short lesson about this. With my three connected lessons, the chapter I read was about a council meeting. I emphasized that within Indigenous communities there are also similar councils with a focus on Elders and their teaching and guides, much like the chapter within the story. I am glad to have been able to tackle this goal as in the past I have had a bit of trouble incorporating these points into my teaching.

Goal: My goal is to incorporate a variety of different cultures, with an emphasis on First Nations, Metis, and Inuit cultures, into the classroom. To achieve this goal I will be utilizing various forms of delivery such as class readings and activities(TQS 1f, 2e, 5b, 5c).
Strategies: I will meet this goal by reading as many diverse books as possible. During recess the teachers will read aloud to the students, this is when I am planning to read the books. I will also ask students for suggestions on books from their culture to let them feel heard as well.
Reflection: The Indigenous Children’s Literature Log is a document with books written by various indigenous authors. This is a valuable resource to broaden Indigenous literature and I will be using it whenever I can to introduce this kind of literature into my classroom. I unfortunately could not read as many books as I wanted, however, I do plan on reading much more.

Goal: My goal is to create relationships outside the small circle from last semester, which was mostly staff and students within my pod. I want to be able to create relationships with staff and students in other pods and try for other grades as well.
Strategies: I will meet this goal by visiting the staff room more often and try to engage in conversations with other teachers in the room. I will also try to accomplish this goal by visiting other classes.

Goal: My goal is to be able to create impactful relationships with teachers, staff, and students in a professional manner.
Strategy: I will meet this goal by observing my mentor teacher see how they interact with colleagues and students. Through this, I can try to see what works for me and try to implement that.
