  1. Looks good. How many other teachers teach what you are doing? Maybe they can help you out or provide support instead of you carrying the load. Good luck!!

  2. Your plan is looking good and well planned. I agree with John's comment about looking into having some other teachers help carry the load. Also, is the Midterm or the EOC your final evaluation? I wasn't sure if you needed to include more about your end results or if you were still working on your plan. Keep up the great work.

  3. thanks for the advice. I will post my updated one. And yes, there will be two other teachers teaching, but I am only focusing on my own students. One teacher has the same training that I will be using, and the other teacher hasn't been hired yet. So... he/she may not have it. BUT, they will be included in my PLC, so they will inevitably be doing something similar.
