Mastery Projects

So in my aim to reach teaching mastery, these are the skills I am going to focus on first:

Being organised

• electronically - having an up to date bank of resources and schemes of work
• paper - having some kind of filing system
• mentally - having a mental map of what is happening

Being intellectually curious both in teaching and in science

• read New Scientist every week
• Browse teaching blogs
• Do something new at least every fortnight

Electronic organisation

1. Scan all paper documents into PDF's
2. File scanned documents into folders on the Sharepoint site
3. Add links to google doc versions to the schemes of work

Paper organisation

1. Examine paper on desk, separate into sections
2. Use available space to create a filing system
3. Change anything that can be electronic into electronic 

Mentally

1. Plan the order of teaching for the new syllabus
2. Compare with school dates when available
3. Think about links between subjects
