Have I mentioned already that I'm having to submit super detailed lesson plans? Ok, I know I have and I know I probably sound like I'm complaining about them. I'm sure in a few weeks, they won't seem so tedious and I'll get the hang of it.
One of the parts of this new lesson plan template requires me to list the standards that I am covering. As a way to remind myself what we're working on, as well as inform anyone who walks into the room what we're doing, I decided to devote an area of my whiteboard to the standards.
Voila!
So far, I really like it. I have the Common Core Standards we are addressing that week listed, as well as just a short list that helps me focus on what we're doing. I already feel like it's making me a better teacher. Time will tell!

We had to post our standards last year and we also had to post a focus question. They wanted us to have it up there so the kids always knew what they were working on. I am glad you are enjoying having the standards up there :)
Glad you like it.... I'm just confused! you are one of my heroes.
Love,
Mom
