Well, It has been a rough week. We had thought that Katrina was doing well at work, but I guess she has still been struggling with math instruction. It's not that she can't do the math because she can. It's just that the way she has been teaching the students isn't working. She's going to observe another how another teacher teaches math. She's also going to a training next week that should give her some math lesson ideas. Additionally, they are trying to get her mentor similar to a first year teacher so that she can kind of teacher re-hab.
She loves teaching so much and it's hard to see her struggle with this after she has made so much progress. I just hope that she continues to progress.
I'm sorry Scott. That's rough. She is an amazing teacher, and I know she can get through this. Wish they had someone like my mom at her school. My mom goes in and helps teach math with the 6th graders and many different grades. I hope having a mentor will help her. She can do it! Here's to a better week.
