This wiki was originally created to keep track of my learning and work as a special education teacher focusing on literacy in all content areas. As I began to focus my learning on being a literacy coach, this has become a space where I can organize resources to share with teachers.

Domain 1: Planning and Preparation - Evidence can best be seen in any of the pages (links on the right) that focus on reading and writing. It should be clear with the documents and explanations that I am focused on continuous professional development for myself and others. I use evidence from students and teachers in Looking at Student Work to plan my learning and design professional development based on student and teacher need.

Domain 2: The Environment - Evidence can best be seen in the page titled Room 215. Other evidence to suggest that I have created an environment of trust and respect can be seen in the list of teachers and departments that I have worked with over the last two years. Teachers are often emailing me or just stopping in my room to ask for resources, brainstorm and plan lessons, and assess student work.

Domain 3: Delivery of Service - Evidence can best be seen in the pages (to the right) that focus on reading and writing and the lessons, SMARTboard lessons, units, tools, and strategies that I have shared, planned, demonstrated, and co-taught with teachers. The monthly newsletters that are emailed to all teachers also demonstrates my attempts to share expertise with teachers, engage teachers in new learning, and provide resources to help further literacy in all content areas. Finally, the professional development and review of units of study can be seen in the Units page.
