To Whom It May Concern:
Brettani Barry has been a student teacher in my first grade
class for sixteen weeks. I teach a gener-
al education class of twenty-four first grade students. The
class includes 50% ESL as well as three
students with special needs. Brettani has been responsible for
teaching Language Arts, Math, So-cial Studies and Science. She has
also worked in a leveled reading program with second and third
graders who read on a first grade level.
Ms. Barry has had the experience of teaching four units of math
during her time in my class. Dur-
ing this time she has planned and implemented the daily work,
reinforced the concepts taught with
games and activities and administered graded, and analyzed unit
tests. Brettani has successfully
demonstrated her awareness of different learning styles and has
adequately adjusted assignments tomeet the varied needs of
students. Her units were thoroughly prepared and implemented. She
was
successful in monitoring and adjusting to various schedule
changes in order to complete it during
her time of teaching.
Brettanis experience in Language Arts included teaching six,
two-week, units. This involved
teaching spelling, vocabulary, shared reading, guided reading,
creative writing and responsive writ-
ing. She was involved in daily journal activities, teaching
mechanics of writing as well as sentencestructure. She completed
these activities using the text book series and developing her own
activi-
ties to reinforce the concepts being taught.
Brettani possesses a positive and enthusiastic personality. She
has a great rapport with the students
she has worked with. She is well dressed, articulate, and always
ready with a smile and a kind
word. I have found that other team members have accepted her as
a strong working member of our
team and she has had a positive working relationship with each
one of them, as well as with otherstaff members.
I am confident that Ms. Barry will be an asset to any staff that
she works with. She is confident,
knowledgeable, and has the skills of a seasoned teacher. I
believe that she will continue to growand become even more
effective as a teacher with further opportunities. Please feel free
