Last week, students practiced writing introduction and body paragraphs using evidence from a DBQ packet! After fall break, I’ll be working with students to practice more with DBQs about the Byzantine Empire!📓✏️

I got to teach my first lesson of CEPT II last week! We put a timeline of the Middle Ages in order and then analyzed each of the events! 🤺✨��

@MsSnoddy03 and I got see our two football teams play one another tonight! It started to rain at halftime, but the Purples were up 20-0 against South Warren! 💜🏈

Today in 7th grade we discussed the design elements of cathedrals and how influential the Roman Catholic Church was on daily life in medieval Europe! 🏰👑 Looking forward to my first lesson with this group soon! ✨💜

Happy first week of clinicals!! This semester with 7th grade social studies is going to be a good one at Bowling Green Junior High! 📚✨ @WKUCEBS

Today also marked my last day at @DrakesCreekMS! I’ve had such a blast this semester getting to know all my Gators and have learned so much from my mentor teacher, Mrs. Gary. I’m going to miss being back in 8th grade ELA!! 🐊🤍✨

I taught my second lesson today! We talked about color symbolism, watched a clip from “Inside Out”, and did a Jigsaw strategy to learn about the different colors and what they represent! It was a great day! 🌈✨

All students learn in different ways; one way to ensure all students are successful is through explicit instruction! This can be having a warm up and introduction, followed by the “I do, We do, You do” method and a review! This allows for constant monitoring of understanding! 👩🏼‍🏫

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

This week I’m focusing on diversity in the classroom! In the future, I want to incorporate this book into instruction somehow! It’s a great example of how students and teachers should treat one another; because everyone deserves to feel included and appreciated at school! 💛

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

As I plan for my next lesson, I want students to work together using a cooperative learning strategy, like the jigsaw activity! Students will become “experts” on different aspects of symbolism and share what they learn with their classmates in their home groups! ✏️📚

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

One dream I’ve always had in becoming a teacher has been to teach in the district I grew up in. Through applying for this scholarship in my home district, I am hopeful I will make connections to help make that dream come true! ✨👩🏼‍🏫

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

Taught my first lesson today! We had a great time learning about figurative language and I received a lot of great feedback to prepare for lesson #2! 📖✏️

Great day at Drakes Creek today! Ms. G and I ran the grammar warm up, students finished watching Romeo and Juliet, and we ended class with a close read on one of the scenes in the written version of the play! 🥀❤️✨ @DrMargarella @WKUCEBS @WKUSTE @CEPTatWKU @wku @DrakesCreekMS

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

After leading a grammar warm up, Ms. G and I helped students with their counterclaim and rebuttal paragraphs for their argumentative essays about Frankenstein! 🧟‍♂️🤍 @DrMargarella @WKUCEBS @WKUSTE @CEPTatWKU @wku @DrakesCreekMS

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

I had an amazing first day in CEPT I at Drakes Creek today! Super excited to further my knowledge and form relationships with my ELA students! 🐊✨ @DrakesCreekMS @WKUCEBS @CEPTatWKU @wku @WKUSTE @DrMargarella

When in doubt say standards ;) @RebeccaStobaugh @WKUSTE

[Emma Klocke @MissEmmaKlocke]

The use of a thumbs up formative assessment will be used as a quick gauge of how my students feel about the content in my class!
