I am a Montessori teacher at Community Montessori Poway. I teach grades 1-3 and this is my third year as lead Educational Facilitator (teacher) in my own classroom. Through out this academic year I have been enrolled in High Tech High’s Graduate School of Education. Through this program I was given the opportunity to learn about and participate in Lesson Study. Some of my key takeaways from participating in Lesson Study are: there is always more to learn and research, the ability to work in a team is an integral part of being a good teacher, and that student understanding and learning is what should truly guide teaching.
