Shirin was a pleasure to have in the classroom, She created a very positive relationship with
both the students inthe classroom as well as with other teachers, Shirin actively partcipated in
student learning by culating the classroom to provide support and working one-on-one with
students
‘When given the opportunity to teach poetry, Shri readily accepted. She introduced the key
concepts and provided several examples of poems that were appropriate for their age and abilly,
‘Shirin gave them lots of opportunity to write poems and read them aloud tothe class,
| was impressed that Shirin created a website to present the information and images for her
portfolio. The layout and organization of her work was well one and demonstrated 21st century
learning which will benefit her as a future teacher
‘While reviewing her portfolio, we examined the limitations that Covid had on bringing members
‘of the community into the school (e.. members ofthe Black community) We also discussed how
teachers are able to use technology to bring community into the classroom (e.g. Mississauga Fire
Department ive presentation and Q&A, Nav Bhatia live interactive talk and Q&A)
‘Within her portfolio, she collected los of evidence of student leering and we discussed how
pictures can be used to help support student assessment, achievement. as well as how they ean
be used to support communication with parents and quardians,
Extra-curicuiar activities within the school were limited, however, she took intiatve to play
language games with students during nutrtion breaks to help improve their vocabulary and,
literacy. Students were excited and actively participated. We discussed ways that language
‘centered games can be used inthe class to help encourage and help students learn new subject
specific vocabulary (e.9, new science and math words)
| wish her al the best towards achieving her goals of becoming a teacher.
