Week One Goals:
1. I want to slow myself when I am speaking.
I feel when I am in front of the classroom teaching or giving directions, I am talking faster than normal. This might be because I am not as comfortable in front of all the new students. But I want to focus on slowing my speech so the students will be able to understand what I am saying more clearly.
2. I want to see the student names when I am talking to them.
I have gotten to know a majority of my students' names in all four classes, although I feel I do not use them when I am talking to the students. By using their names I hope to convey a message of comfort. This will help me later on in the semester when I am teaching full time. I want to carry this goal both in the classroom and out in the halls or at extra curricular events.
