Stirling School is a K-12 school in a rural southern Alberta setting. Due to the fact that we are 4 ‘small school, student teachers that come through our doors have a wide range of growing opportunities. Karley’s teaching assignment consisted of English 10, Language Arts 9, co-teaching a junior high option and one class period a week with a Language Arts 7 class. She also covered a variety of classes for teachers when they were in meetings. One of many of Ms. Regehr’s strengths was her ability to organize herself on paper and in the classroom Her growth plan was detailed and submitted early. Her PIP project grew out of a need within our Drop Everything And Read period, where she recognized that we had a number of reluctant readers. She Surveyed students and found high interest books for them. She provided them with different reading strategies to help them successfully through their books. The website she created was filled with research-based materials that she will continue to add to and leave behind for our teachers to utilize. A venture that Ms. Regehr experienced while at our school was ‘Flex Fridays’. Because of our school size, option classes are limited. To alleviate this, we instituted Flex Fridays for our junior and senior high school students. Karley offered physical activities as one of her Fridays and creative writing classes for her second Friday. Both were well attended and enjoyed by all who signed up. Karley worked hard on classroom management. She treated students fairly and expected them to be the best that they could be. She grew in her skills throughout her internship and became comfortable with a variety of discipline strategies. Karley was involved in various duties including lunch hour supervision. Ms. Regehr was one of the main grganizers for the Terry Fox assembly and run. She interacted well with students and staff of the Stirling School. Karley's contribution to our school was professional and positive. She has worked hard over the past four months during her intemship and | would not hesitate recommending her for a teaching position Good luck Ms. Regehr.
