I am Ineffective because...

I flunked 'Standards-Based Classroom' because:


I didn't put up a Word Wall. Oh, wait, it was right there if you turned your head to the right.


I didn't have the Marzano strategies posted.


I didn't make up a set of rules for my classroom in addition to the school rules.


I don't have an agenda on the board.


I didn't rush to put up student work examples.


There were only a couple of content posters up. My administrator didn't recognize the tectonic plates.


The mission statement wasn't on the wall, and I don't have the anti=bullying poster either.


I had not posted random curriculum standards.


The date wasn't on the board.


Oh, did I mention this is the room where I spend just an hour every day?
