Sharing a good moment
This
email arrived today and made my day! Especially the part about Patrick
- now words like that from a former teacher really count in my book.
Think we could use things like this for evaluation? I am still
struggling with evaluation but have decided that a rubric of skills
just isn’t the answer.
Anyway, I just had to share my good moment….
Anne-
Thank you for
sharing my baby blog with the National School Boards Association. I must admit
that I freaked out when I read the post from Kelly McCarthy because I had no
clue who this person was & then to see where my blog was posted….yikes!
But think the exposure PE can receive as a result of this will be great.
In fact, I
shared the site with a professor from UGA that organizes the annual Georgia
Physical Educators Workshop so that he could suggest that other PE teachers use
them as well. He was impressed and is sending it to “everyone”.
Thank you so
much for all you do at House. You have an amazing ability to get the students
to dig down deep and pull out things they didn≠t even realize they could
do! I am still floored and amazed by Patrick’s blog on what he was
passionate about. I shared it with Gail Scott yesterday (he was in her 4th
grade class) and she could not believe the dramatic changes in his writing
skills! You have found the magic key to unlock the passion of writing within
him ~ and numerous others no doubt!
Thanks.
