Vanguard - The Beginnings

As I am in my first year of Vanguard, I ponder how I want to change my teaching and help my students go to the next level in the their learning. What risks will I take? 

This year, I have started to mentor a few of my students to learn the process of mentoring through Itslearning. I am taking it slow, so that I can learn the ins and outs of the process. Looking forward to next year, I would like to be able to mentor all of my students and help them to become more aware of their strengths and weaknesses. Every child deserves a mentor who can help them to grow. 

I also believe that every child can learn, but may need other resources/choices to help with the learning. I would like to create choice in my classroom and allow the students to use different tools to show their learning. This year, I have been using itslearning more to give some choice in their learning. I have dabbled with flipgrid as a tool for my students to share their learning and to connect with classes in other states. 

In the past, I have attempted to have a class blog and it has not been very successful. I would love to attempt to have my student blog about their learning and have a authentic audience for them to receive feedback from. I feel that blogging would be away for the students to have a voice and help them become more aware of their learning and growth. 


Let the journey begin!
