recommendations for hosting a student teacher

Recommendations for hosting a student teacher:

1. Thoroughly read the Field Placement information provided in the mail packet, know all dates, evaluation forms and focus on their biography
2. Introduce your student teacher at the first possible staff meeting to all staff
3. Inform your student teacher of any “problem” students or parents, medical conditions or special needs students
4. Go over your grading system and gradebook
5. Have your Tech person or office staff get the student teacher a log on ID if you use a network system to take roll, post grades or accept assignments
6. If possible, provide a class roster with names and photos so the student teacher can quickly learn the names of all the students
7.If possible, provide the student teacher with their own work area or desk
