Experience
Student Teacher, Shady Grove Elementary and Skipwith Elementary, Richmond, VA
January 2018—May 2018
I have been immersed in all of the daily responsibilities of a full-time teacher, such as lesson plans for all
content areas, classroom management, assessment data collection and interpretation, and parent relations
through student teaching. I have received positive, constructive feedback from my university supervisor during
in-class observations.
Related Experience
2017 – I completed teacher inquiry and research on the effects of incorporating social-emotional learning to see
how it would affect the behavior of my fifth-grade students. During this research, I collaborated with another
practicum student, who was in a third-grade class, to determine similarities and differences of the students.
2015 – I completed observations and research on a single, kindergarten student to accurately assess the physical,
cognitive, social-emotional, and linguistic development of that student.
