Blogging with Mr. Oldham

This is a forum that will allow me to ask questions and reflect on students, parents, community, and my own thoughts. The goal of this conversation is to hopefully improve instruction, assessment, and school climate through reflection.

The First Day of School

November 1st, 2007 · No Comments

July is coming to an end and I find myself begining to work towards September. A new year is about to begin and with that comes the excitement of a new class. Every year I go over my expectations of student behavior during the first period of the first day. Below is a list of my expectations.

Students should:

- Do their best
- Take risks academically
- Reflect on their learning
- Respect themselves, classmates, and school staff
- Participate
- Help others

I started to wonder what the students expectations were for me? What are parent and community expectations?

If you find yourself reading this post, think back to a lesson or project that you enjoyed. Think about your favorite teacher, what made them your favorite teacher? What did they do? What are you interested in? What would you like to learn about. What are your expectations for me?

I look forward to reading your list of expectations.
