Essential Chips Sense

This is proof of what poor observations and prepping for the EdTPA will do to a student teacher. Don’t know what EdTPA is? Apparently Texas is trialing it this semester and I’m one of the lucky ones to get to go first. It’s as high stakes as passing a licensing exam, but much more in depth including video of lessons, commentary and assessments to prove students are improving proficiency. I am literally having nightmares about it the further I get into the nitty gritty of the whole thing. Check on any student teachers you know right now...we are not ok!

On a positive note...I got my cute jeans on and zipped/buttoned up! I look like a busted can of cinnamon rolls, but I’m counting this a win!

It’s Nerd Day at school and if you know me, you know I’m here for all the dress up days! This morning we were all on the struggle bus trying to wake up, but...it’s Friday!
