HELP!!!
Elementary student teacher desperately needs job interview/portfolio advice before next Wednesday.
I'm graduating in June with my MAT, student teaching in 4th grade. My actual solo teaching time doesn't start for three more weeks, but I have an interview on Wednesday evening. It's with a new Waldorf-inspired charter school in the district where I would really love to work. Although I'm wary of new charter schools, I love the idea of working for a Waldorf school, and teaching jobs are really, really hard to come by in Portland, so this may be my only chance!
Anyway -- I did not think I'd be getting an interview this soon, and I haven't solo taught yet, so I don't have a lot of material to put into my portfolio. However, I'd really like to impress them in my interview.
If you were throwing together a portfolio over the weekend, what would you put in it? What different sections would you have? How would you display photos of your students?
If you were an interviewer at a Waldorf school, what might you ask?
Thanks in advance!
