Area of Weakness

New teachers will be evaluated by TEAM (click link to see home page along with a short video). This evaluation involves identify areas of weakness by choosing a CCT indicator in each of the domains and working to improve.

For this thread, choose an area in which you feel you need the most improvement. Identify the indicator from the CCT, explain how this is your area of weakness and explain possible ways to improve.

Because we have spring break, this post is not due until Sunday, April 17 at midnight.
