Comments on: Spring Break Is Here…What to Do, What to Do… http://www.soyouwanttoteach.com/spring-break-is-herewhat-to-do-what-to-do/ Providing HOPE for educators since 2007 Wed, 13 Apr 2011 17:59:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Joelhttp://www.soyouwanttoteach.com/spring-break-is-herewhat-to-do-what-to-do/#comment-3651 Joel Thu, 19 Mar 2009 14:09:35 +0000 http://www.soyouwanttoteach.com/?p=914#comment-3651 Miss Teacha: I recorded myself during my first two years some and it was harsh when I went back and listened. I would recommend doing that from time to time. I've recorded myself a few times this year (usually I just record the band), and it is sobering as well. But it's good. As far as cooperative teaching, I do that regularly in the band program I'm in. We have two directors at my school and I will warm his band up from time to time, or take sections out, or whatever. When we're working on sight reading, I will do the sight reading and he listens and watches around the room and offers suggestions to the students afterwards. Now the next question, is anyone brave enough to record themselves teaching and put it on their blog? Eek... Mister T: I've already signed up. Looks like we have 20 in the competition. Look out! Tina: I love San Antonio. I went to Chuy's on 281 with a friend Tuesday night. Nothing like good ol' Tex-Mex.

I would love to say that I could do something as hands on, but I will at least be doing something education related. I'll be working on the website for my new education publishing company and writing my first teaching book. I wish I were doing it in San Antonio though. :) I love the idea of using your Spring Break to do something like that.

I've yet to figure out how to do it. Youtube and other video servers can not be seen at school. Every time I load it to teachertube it seems to big. Any suggestions for websites/video players I could do at school? I've invited guest speakers into the classroom and usually they reinforce what I've already taught the children. . . they offer first hand accounts for the lecture or lesson. Another thing I've is co-teach a class, it definitely offers students different perspectives. . . I like the idea of recording my lesson's i might do this one day to test myself and see what I can to improve. Thanks for the suggestion.
