I think that by interviewing one of our school counselors I will gain a better understanding of the offerings of the guidance office. As a teacher I see e-mails, flyers and hear announcements but I seldom understand what prompts these messages. I also hope to gain a better understanding of the testing available that is done through the counseling office. Then, how can I assist my students with deciding to take the test, or understanding the results of the test.
We have advisement weekly at the CA, but the time is often wasted. I would like to get some ideas from my counselor to use during advisement such as leadership, personal qualities, employability. Yes, I know much of this, but what I know is healthcare specific and I would like to expland my advisor portfolio to encompass activities that meet all of my students needs.
And last, I am interested in learning how the counseling office works. How is scheduling done, and what must occur to make changes in sheduling. With this knowledge I can better assist all fo my students in their decision making.
I am sure that you will receive all the answers you are seeking. If you are unable to get answers on testing, you may want to check with your AP. We have an AP that is assigned to testing and he explained the testing to me.
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you are looking for ideas on leadership, there are some great games. You can find ideas in your NTI notebook under bell ringers. I use that for my advisement class and they love it!! Good luck!
