*Being Active and Engaging in the Classroom*

Professional development last week was very active and engaging. I get a lot out of talking with other first year teachers, and reflecting on what has worked for me, and what hasn't worked so well. I enjoy learning from my peers, and it's comforting talking to others experiencing the same things.

I enjoy making my classroom activities active and engaging. I believe that students learn best when they are moving around, and working with others. When working in groups, I encourage students to help each other, and learn from each other.

I also liked the videos that were shown last week during the professional development session. They were helpful videos showing different prospectives on classroom management.
