=**Step 1: For standard two, select the indicator that is your strongest suit for the standard and give two examples (artifacts) of why you selected it as your strongest suit.**= Indicator selected: a- design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity

Artifact 1: Students created their own poster using the program Pages depicting their meaning of the Character Counts Pillar, "Respect".

Artifact 2: Using Pages, the students created a brochure after studying a Science unit called "Forces that Shape Earth's Surface". They needed to answer the following question. "What causes the Earth's surface to change?" Students found pictures and gave facts to create the brochure.

=**Step 2: For standard two, select the indicator that is your "least strongest" suit for the standard and write a professional goal of how you are going to increase your competency with the goal this year.**= Indicator selected: c- customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources

Goal: I need to plan an activity that will allow the students to choose how they are going to show me their knowledge about a particular book.

=Step 3: On the final TCL day, reflect on each standard and goal you set for yourself. How did you do and why?=

Reflection: Each month my students are required to read at least 2 independent reading books. During the month of May I plan to have them choose a project to do over one of the books they've read in April. I'm hoping all of our other big Technology projects are done by then. I think they would get side tracked if they had more than one project going on at once. I also think this would be a fun way to end the year and share about one of the books they've read.
