Parkway School District Summer, 2009

Outcomes Why Mentor? Phases of New Teacher Development Roles of the Mentor Teacher Responsibilities and Expectations of the Mentor Teacher Ongoing support for Mentors Anything else?

Check-in and Introductions Who’s here? Have you mentored previously? Why are you mentoring again?

Your Mental Model of Mentor? What is your current understanding of what a mentor does? Think- Who mentors you? What do they do? What do they say? What do they NOT say? What have you done as a mentor? Write your thoughts. Pair- Talk with a partner about yours thoughts Share- Be prepared to share some of your partner’s thoughts

Mentor- from Greek Mythology Mentor was a friend of Odysseus. When Odysseus went on long journeys, he entrusted his son, Telemachus, to Mentor. Mentor’s role was to provide advice, guidance, and support to Telemachus in his father’s absence.

Why Mentoring? The growth and development of children is vitally linked to the growth and development of adults in and beyond schools. A successful mentoring program can help teachers respond intentionally with effective strategies to the needs of a diverse population of learners. The early years of teaching are a critical part of a continuum of learning – a link between pre- service preparation and ongoing professional development.

Mentoring Behavior Continuum

Mentor Responsibilities Offer Support Create Challenge Facilitate Professional Vision

Offering Support Emotional Sometimes humor, sometimes tears Physical Room arrangement, moving books Technical Guidelines for applying procedures, or advice on certain processes Informational Content area resources, practical professional suggestions

How do I offer support? Maintain confidentiality Communicate that you are not evaluative Visit regularly with your mentee Your Lead Mentor has sample reflection guides too Provide feedback

Creating Challenge Goal-driven Goal-driven conversations ensure productive use of time Set goals for “next” meeting Data-focused Look at student work together Thought-provoking Encourage problem solving and decision making Build connections between theory and classroom practice

How do I create challenge? Encourage your mentee to use the mentor/mentee release day. Plan this day together. Invite your mentee into your classroom to observe something specific. Observe your mentee when he/she is ready – encourage him/her to ask for specific feedback.

Facilitating Professional Vision High expectations for self and students Refer to Parkway Teaching Standards Support the new teacher’s PGP Lifelong learning “We don’t learn to teach, we learn from our learning.” Professional identity As mentors, we need to model this on a daily basis.

How do I facilitate professional vision? Assist mentee in writing PGP. Serve as a resource to foster professional growth (share articles, information about current research) Keep track of the mentor/mentee logmentor/mentee log

Charting your work Mentor Responsibilities Sample form to guide your time with mentee 30 hours – what counts? What doesn’t? Sample monthly log
