Ashley is thoughtful in how she reflects on her observations and experiences. As Ashley has already decided that she would
like to become a teacher, she often thinks ahead to how she might approach situations in her own classroom. lt was evident
that Ashley wants to see each of the students as an individual and get to know them. Her reflections show that she has begun
to see the many different abilities of students in a classroom and how much she wants her classroom to be a place where she
meets all of those needs. She recognizes that a classroom is a place that requires structure but also must have flexibility.

Although this is Ashley's first education course, she has a wonderful sense about the needs of students and how to approach
learning. She has been ready to help out in any way and eagerly approached each opportunity to try her hand at a variety of
aspects of the classroom. Her smile and positive attitude were evident in how she gave the students feedback verbally and in
written form. Ashley was eager to plan and deliver some lessons and came up with an Art activity that she organized, directed,
and graded. The students were thrilled with the results, as was Ashley. Ashley took on some ongoing activities as well
requiring her to interact regularly with students one on one. She enjoyed seeing their progress and enthusiasm about their

Ashley enjoys being creative and brings this to her ideas about learning. She was able to observe and then follow the
classroom procedures. She is learning how she can use both verbal and non-verbal cues to help with the management of a
classroom. Ashley would often bring her own ideas of how something could be approached to keep it engaging for the
students. When Ashley directed an activity she was orderly and prepared.

Comments:
Ashley's enthusiasm and positive attitude shine through. Not only was she punctual and dependable, but went the extra mile
to arrive early each day and even volunteered her time to come in some extra days. The students were happy to see her each
day she was ihere. Ashley has wonderful background knowledge about dealing with children, evident in her actions and
thoughts about learning and teaching. She acted in a professional manner and willingly participated in many tasks that go into
the day-to-day life of a teacher in their classroom.
When I first met Ashley, she said that she had always wanted to be a teacher. I can see that this is still true for her today. I
have said to her many times that she has such a nice way with the students. Her creativity and enthusiasm will be an asset to
her classroom when she has one. Both students and staff at the school were drawn to Ashley and enjoyed her presence in the
building. Ashley went over and above the expectations of this practicum in order to learn all that she could during her time at
our school.
On the basis of her performance during this practicum, I would highly recommend Ashley be admitted to the Faculty of
Education. I look forward to hearing about her successes in the future.
