Project Summary:
My AR Project is going pretty well. Last year, I taught
Kindergarten, and therefore, I was studying Kindergarten students for my
project. I did pretty well keeping up with my project. I interviewed three
Kindergarten teachers on their opinions of AM tutoring like my plan outlined. I
tutored struggling Kindergarten students regularly like my plan outlined. And,
I collected data from the beginning, middle, and end of the year on Kindergarten
students like my plan outlined. Then, summer vacation came, and I did nothing.
School is back in session, and I need to get my AR Project
back up and running. This assignment has given me the opportunity to reflect on
the progress I have made thus far on my AR Project. What I have learned from my reflections is that I have done
a good job to this point and now I need to kick it back into gear; I am no
longer on summer vacation. This school year I am teaching a new grade, 4th
grade. I knew this change was coming so I planned for it in my AR plan. As a
result of this grade level change, I will be studying 4th grade
students rather than Kindergarten students. When I was reflecting on my
progress, I realized, last year, I
made a couple of mistakes with my Kindergarten study, I forgot to interview the
students and parents, but that is not going to happen this year. AM tutoring is
about to begin, and I need to start getting ready to begin the study again with
the 4th grade students. This go around, I am going to remember to
interview the students and the parents that are involved in AM tutoring and
prepare this interview questions this week. Also, I need to start interviewing
my fellow 4th grade teachers on their opinions of AM tutoring. This
is going to be a great year! I can feel it.
One more thing to add, after reflecting on my progress, I
have decided that I need to start doing some research on the effects of AM
tutoring as well as entering the data I collected into a PowerPoint. The last
thing I want to do is get behind on my AR Project.
