Reflection: Throughout Term 1 and Term 2, I have strictly adhered to my PDP and have done the best I can in areas that were beyond my control. I am very reflective in my practice and on a daily basis, I make adjustments in my teaching to better suit student learning. I keep regular lesson plans. I record data regularly. I submit the data to administration and I also try to keep in contact with parents. It is also important for students to have an awareness of their status in my class, and this is something that I regularly share with them through progress reports.

Reflection of Standard 2:
I have always maintained the belief that it was important to intricately plan my daily, weekly, and monthly lessons as well as document student achievement on a regular basis. I have committed to this practice at Al Rehab as well. Additionally, I also believe that it is important to collect formative data on my students that helps to aid decisions I make about instruction. For this reason, I regularly conduct assessments that allow me to make decisions about my student's learning. Each lesson that I design is designed with differentiated instruction embedded within it. Differentiation can exist in many different ways. Teachers can explicitly or implicitly integrate the techniques of DI into their daily lessons, and it doesn't always look the same. I integrate lessons that appeal to different learning styles. I utilize cooperative and independent learning opportunities for my students as well. I also always plan with the lower achievers in mind. In addition, I take anecdotal notes on my student's achievement and their needs. These are all included in the summative binder that is submitted at the end of the term.

Cooperative Learning Critical Thinking Peer-Support
Students were involved in rule creation. Behavior is monitored using the star charts. This reinforces a positive atmosphere. Students hold jobs in the classroom to maintain a positive atmosphere and positive peer pressure.
In my classroom, the theme for the term is highlighted with a teacher-made display. I also post exemplars based on the NSM for students to reference. I use rubrics based on the learning outcomes, and I comment on student work as a regular practice.
