Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

Holly ----- Original Message ----- From: Shighley@aol.com To: middle-lit@interversity.org Sent: Saturday, July 22, 2006 5:32 PM Subject: Re: [middle-lit] Interview questions 1. What YA books have you read over the summer? Many teachers are able to encourage kids to read by sharing books they have read in a variety of genres. 2. What would a typical classroom period look like in your class? 3. What questions do you have for us? (A good candidate will have done some research on your school, and should ask lots of questions about various aspects of the curriculum.) 4. What would you do with students who are reading below grade level? 5. What writing process do you favor? Reading-writing workshop? Spelling? Vocab? 6. What do you consider your greatest strength as a teacher? Weakness? 7. How do you envision utilizing the media center? (I just had to throw that in.) 8. Be sure to ask about classroom management. Many are dependent on your particular school. Do you have teaming? integrated units? Just some thoughts... Good luck! Susie shighley@aol.com Creston Middle School Media Specialist
