Reply To: Lesson 6-7 Question

[Heather Alden]

My biggest takeaway (although I had many) from the course is the importance of knowing where students are coming from and where they are going. I am starting a new role in grades that I have never taught before (K-2). I need to learn pre-k through 3rd grade standards really well in order to anticipate effectively in my lessons. I will be spending a lot of time before the school year starts studying these standards so that I am able to best support the students I will be working with this year and be able to plan effectively for intervention as well as spiralling skills.
