General Comments:
Audrey has performed exceptionally well during her professional semester. She has implemented suggestions for
improvement always showing a willingness to develop and improve. She has gained the trust and respect of her
students and understands how to relate in a positive way to middle school students. Her lessons are well planned and
delivered, student focused with active engagement throughout. She has a bright future as a math teacher.
Conference Held:
Audrey directed the students through a modeling activity developing skills in working with fractions. Excellent job of
questioning students, utilizing wait time, and allowing students to participate in problem modeling on the smart board.
Active engagement maintained throughout the lesson. Student interaction enhanced with group discussion of problem
solving. Recommend viewing other teachers and grade levels within the school to gain exposure to different teaching
styles and curriculum as the semester comes to completion.
