Forms for the Practicum

For every lesson you formally teach (4 for each of the 5 weeks)

  • Lesson Plans
    For every lesson that you teach, you need to have a lesson plan written. Use the outlines below (the early childhood lesson plans) to help you determine the content of your lesson ("guide to writing LP's" or "inquiry LP's"). Use the sped lesson plan outline to guide the structure of the information. I've included a copy of the lesson plan evaluation rubric that we will be using in special education to evaluate your lesson plan.

At the end of each of the 5-week sessions

  • Time sheet - to be signed by mentor - on p. 6 of your handbook.
  • Mentor teacher feedback - ask your mentor teacher to use the "Teacher Candidate Observation Instrument" (p. 10 of the handbook) to formally evaluate one of your lessons for each of the two sessions. That is, you should have one of these completed at the end of the first 5-week session and one at the end of the second 5-week session.
  • Teacher Candidate Self-Evaluation of Dispositions - p. 14 of handbook.
  • Mentor Teacher Evaluation of Dispositions - p. 16 of handbook.

At end of 10-week session

  • Final Evaluation of Practicum Student by the Mentor Teacher - p. 20 of handbook
  • Self-Assessment of Video - use the "Teacher Candidate Observation Form" (p. 10 of the handbook) and type a self-analysis of your lesson.
  • Peer Assessment of Video: Have a peer watch your video and use the form to evaluate your teaching - click for Word doc
