I think teacher evaluations right now should focus on the following questions:
How are you doing?
Are you taking care of yourself?
How is your family?
How can I best support you right now?
If there is one thing we love in education is buzzwords or phrases. Some of the latest are, "the new normal", “unprecedented times”, “we are building as we go", “uncharted waters” & of course the latest "They can deliver wine"! The last one is for all middle grades teachers :-)
To the people who say it’s all about the kids. Just remember the kids learn in an environment created by the teacher. A teacher who is supported, encouraged and appreciated will create a more positive and dynamic learning environment than a teacher who is not supported that way.
Teachers can not be available 24/7 this fall if they’re working remotely. & If school is virtual, please rethink teachers coming to school if that is the plan. Many have their own children at home. If they need adequate internet & computer, please meet their professional needs.
Students need words of affirmation, but this fall teachers, staff, and admin are all going to need them. So, focus on building strong relationships and building each other up. It is going to take a team effort to build a positive school culture.
Wow! “Disappointed at school responses to COVID-19”! Reflect on this: The U.S. Secretary of Education has never taught 1 day in a classroom, has NEVER led 1 school or district, but is the chief of ALL school districts in our country. How would she know what she doesn’t know?
