Email to gkeller@lrei.org by Tuesday, May 27th. (OR EARLIER!!)

Discuss the work you completed this quarter, in terms of process and product.

Reflect upon your participation in group work and in-class discussions.

Assess your homework in terms of depth, completion, and timeliness.

Look back over the entire year and reflect upon how you and your learning process have changed.

Think about all the work you’ve done in class this year. What strengths emerge from this work? Why do you think that this is the case?

In what ways has your work improved this year? Describe the differences you see between the beginning of the year and now.

What areas still need work? How do you plan to work on them next year?

What ways do you learn best? Select 1 or 2 pieces of work that you did this year of which you are particularly proud—could be a piece of writing, a class comment, a response, a project. What do you think these items show about you as a learner? What have you discovered about yourself as a learner this year?

Think about all the work that you’ve done this year in class. Did you develop any new areas of strength? What are they? What was most helpful to your growth as a learner?

What areas do you still need to work on improving? What strategies will you use next year to do so? How can your teachers and families be helpful? (Do not say, “Work harder”—instead, describe what that looks like for you to be doing it.).

Are you satisfied with your effort this year? Explain.

Comment on the quality and organization of your work.

What will you work on next year to better your experience and performance in class? How can I help?

Are you satisfied with the quality of your homework? Why or why not? What would you change and why?

Think about your note taking and our most recent notebook check. Comment on your organization and thoroughness. (Would your notes be legible, clear, and understandable to other readers? Could an absent student use your notes to get a clear idea of what he/she missed?)

Comment on your class participation (listening, questioning, offering ideas, etc.).

What new skills did you learn? What progress did you make on previously learned skills? Explain.

Choose one project that you felt you did not do your best work. a. Which aspects of this project were not your best? b. Why do you think you did not do as well in this project? c. What could you have done differently to improve your performance in this project?
