T- Teaching Dispositions

Teacher candidates will foster a caring and professional relationship with students that focus on acceptance and their educational needs.


Artifact #1- Referral Letter

This referral letter was written by my mentor teacher during my student teaching in the Fall of 2010. In the letter my mentor refers to my ability to be positive and up beat with the students. My mentor teacher also gave me distinguished ratings as she says in the letter. This artifact, written by someone who has watched me teach many times, shows that I have the disposition to be an excellent teacher.




Artifact #2- Lesson Evaluation

This artifact is a lesson evaluation completed by my supervisor during my student teaching in the Fall of 2010. In the Teaching Dispositions category she rated me 5-Distinguished. This artifact shows that I can maintain a good teaching disposition even in the stressful situation of being evaluated by a supervisor.
