I create a safe, respectful, and caring online classroom environment. This vision required weeks of actively enforcing online etiquette, developing a consistent class structure with a Do Now, Teacher Model, and Exit Ticket, and constant parent contact both for student praise and behavior alerts. Distance learning lessened the burden of behavior management considerably, and allowed me to further develop pure pedagogical skills.

In my role I lead three cohorts of 30 8th graders on topics in number theory, pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry. It required constructing two-level differentiated, physical daily classwork and a rigid class structure: Do Now, I Do, We Do, You Do, and Exit Ticket. It required grit and determination to create and evenly enforce a discipline system inclusive and effective (and not alienating or authoritative) for all students.
