During this period, the end of course testing for mathematics was implemented and I attended many of the meetings addressing the implementation.
Used a variety of teaching methods such as lectures, discussions and demonstrations and first use of a tandy laptop with overhead data screen.
Participated in regular training courses to keep up-to-date with new teaching methods and developments in the field - a lot of computer training.
Established positive relationships with students, parents, colleagues and administrators. We had a math/science building and worked as a team during parent-teacher meetings.
Taught 5 math classes. One of the classes was called basic math and I created the curriculum for that course. There were only 2 math teachers and we worked together to create a computer lab using apple computers. Myself and another teacher helped the senior class to raise money and went to Florida for our class trip.
