Month three of my summer discussions with Mrs. Rippole focused on instructional planning. The questions that guided my discussion can be found in this Prezi presentation.
My biggest takeaway from talking with Mrs. Rippole was the importance of being flexible. She mentioned to me how the planning portion of instructional planning is the easiest part, but the hardest part is the unforeseen events the pop-up and prevent you from executing your plan. She explained to me that fire drills, assemblies, and snow days are just a few examples of ways your plan can be interrupted. This reminded me of a similar activity we did in AEE 100 where we colored in a calendar how many days of actual instruction take place in a school year, which is less than the 180 days students attend school.
Next month, my last summer discussion topic with Mrs. Rippole, will be about supervised agricultural experiences (SAEs).
