I'm being evaluated today. Eeek!

I'm kind of an old pro at teaching evaluations because I'm not permanent, so every position I do that is at least 4 months in length I am evaluated. It's good because I (hopefully) get a positive evaluation to put in my portfolio, and then I am also able to use that administrator as a reference. And principals talk so if I impress them I know that words gets around.

But there is always a little bit of nerves before somebody watches you teach so if you can throw me some positive energy that would be awesome!

My lesson is a mock trial (I'm teaching grade 10 English) so they read To Kill a Mockingbird and this is a trial brought about by the widow of the man convicted in the novel. And now I have to run to another teacher's room because he has an actual GAVEL I can borrow. Selfie will be forthcoming...

I did a mock trial with my 5th graders after one of our novels and they loved it.

I think it went well! The VP who was evaluating me got called out to deal with a serious matter so she missed the closing statements and verdict, but she seemed to enjoy the lesson.

I didn't even go to the bathroom on my prep period because I was getting things ready for this lesson. I'm so glad it is over!! I think I need a nap.

I haven't seen the VP since she got called away. I think there was a major situation going on (I saw a cop car in front of the school). I'm sure we will probably chat tomorrow. I will get a copy of the evaluation and a debrief so fingers crossed!!
