Goal #2: Develop and implement instructional strategies and activities that motivate
and interest students
Rationale: It is essential to ensure that students are motivated, and interested in the
material that is being taught. I am a firm believer in having several variations of
instructional strategies and activities in order to enhance student learning. However, I
want to find ways to utilize more instructional strategies when teaching. I have found that
I am the most comfortable lecturing, and realize I need to become more comfortable with
other strategies. I want to make sure that all my students are engaged during the learning
process. In order to accomplish this task, I will include various teaching strategies and
activities including: lecture, video, group work, discussion, projects, etc.
KSA linkage: there are many approaches to teaching and learning. They know a broad
range of instructional strategies appropriate to their area of specialization and the develop
and implement their own professional development activities (i)
Goal #3: Build positive and meaningful relationships with the grade 6 team as well
as the other staff at Wilson Middle School.
Rationale: I want to establish a close relationship with all the grade 6 teachers. I believe
that this will generate a closer relationship to my colleagues as well. I believe that team
teaching is a positive and necessary. In addition, this will help me establish a
collaborative classroom environment. I have never had the opportunity to team teach
before, and I believe that it will be a very beneficial one.
KSA linkage: The importance of contributing, independently and collegially, to the
quality of their school. They know the strategies whereby they can, independently and
collegially, enhance and maintain the quality of their schools to the benefit of students,
parents, community and colleagues (n)
B. Strategies (How will I go about achieving my goals?)
Strategies for addressing Goal #1:
i. I will seek advice from other staff members on how they assess students, and
what seems to work best for them. I would also like to watch other teachers
assess students as I believe this would be most effective for me.
ii. I will further research ways in which to effectively establish, create, and
implement assessment practices. This will be done using online resources.
iii. I will ask for feedback from my TA, School Admin, and University Consultant
with regards to my assessment practices.
