The ABC's High School Teachers Really Need to Know
This podcast was developed to help high school teachers better reach students, as well as gain more self-fulfillment by doing just that. We will discuss essential strategies and stories to help new, experienced, burned-out, and/or growth-focused teachers find their way in a world of confusing, endless, and oftentimes overwhelming resources for educators. Hopefully, you will find these both tangible and applicable in your own professional journey. This podcast is definitely not about “polish” and “pretty”. Instead, it’s about REAL strategies that have proven results in REAL classrooms. Thank you for taking the time to get better for your students. Most of all, thank you for being a teacher.

Episode #5: Don't Forget to Document
Effective and professional teachers document early and often. They document the good and the bad. They document how effective lessons are in meeting their goals. They document patterns in student performance and behavior. They then use this data to improve student outcomes. It's not about paranoia or simply documenting for the major disruptions/issues in class (though that's important too). It's about effectively meeting the needs of those we serve.
