Roles and Responsibilities
When working with my mentee I will need to make sure that I create the time to sit down and talk as well as listen to her. We are all so busy with our own teaching responsibilities that it can be challenging to think of our fellow teachers. I also feel that it will be important to make sure that I encourage the new teacher that I am working with, frequently. As we discussed in our last meeting, new teachers just need to know that there is someone ther to listen to them and offer them some support. The new text we received will also be a great resource to shar with our new teachers. There is a section dedicated to the beginning of the school year that I think would be especially helpful. I look forward to working with my mentee as well as all the memebers of our TSS class this school year!
