My First Sick Day - VE Amended Task for 4/23/14

In the two and a half years I've been at Northwest, I've never taken a sick day.  Sure, I've been out for professional development or personal days, but I've been lucky enough not to miss a day due to being under the weather.  However, after burning the candle at both ends these past few days, I've come down with a pretty rough sore throat.  Currently, I am unable to speak and I am far from 100%.  Consequently, on Wednesday, April 23, 2014, I will take my first sick day as a teacher.  Worry not, I plan on being back to school on Thursday.

In my absence, we will skip ahead to one of your assignments meant to be completed after your employee evaluations.  Today, you will each complete a facilitator evaluation.  That's right, you get to evaluate me on how well I've done in helping you grow as a student and as an individual.

In order for you to complete your assignment, you will need two things.  First, you will need your performance evaluation you completed to use as a reference.  If you don't have it, I've shared it with you in PDF format on Google+.  Second, you'll need to open Microsoft Word to type your answers and save them to your student folder. 

Once you have both items, you will assess me on all 8 factors using one of the four performance rating factors (O - Outsanding, E - Exceeds Expectations, M - Meets Expectations, I - Needs Improvement).  For each factor, you must substantiate your rating by providing a specific example and a comment that supports your decision.  I expect your substantiation to be at least 30 words (about two sentences) so that you can back up your opinion.

After completing this assignment, you will either share your document with me in Google Drive (preferred) or attach your document and email it to mattspinella@gmail.com.  Please be honest, realistic and thorough with your answers.  We will have a good time reading these in class on Thursday. 

Have a great Wednesday.  I will see you tomorrow!
