Each packet at Goddard must include:
cover letter to your advisor, explaining how your semester is going, how this work reflects what you said in your study plan you were going to do and what you may have changed, and anything else you feel is relevant.
2 book annotations
1 annotated bibliography entry
at least 1 piece of evidence. some examples might include:
a critical paper
a reflective essay
a Prezi
a video
a podcast
an interview
your cover letter must include how this piece of evidence proves your knowledge of either a competency you are trying to meet and/or a goal you have set in your study plan. For licensure students, these explanations of evidence can be copied and pasted into your competency intro letters. The connections should be made as explicit as possible. See examples of intro letters in the Student Work section.
Here are examples of annotated bibliography entries (you can find examples of the other pieces of evidence in the Examples of Student Work section of this website)
Teaching Tolerance (Project), & Southern Poverty Law Center. (1997). Starting small : Teaching tolerance in preschool and the early grades. Montgomery, Ala: Teaching Tolerance.
This small but powerful book, put together by the famed Southern Poverty Law Center, is a great resource. It discusses several very innovative programs and their approaches to, as the title would suggest, teaching tolerance. As a teacher, one constantly risks having ideas and projects turn stale, and one is constantly up against a wider world that has not learned how to practice tolerance or peaceful conflict resolution. Sometimes the best thing a teacher can do is to examine other places in which this is being done. This book offers a wealth of ideas; a careful teacher can pick and choose which to bring to her own classroom.
