I. My teaching journals

I have found it helpful to read other people’s teaching journals. It’s a great way to reflect on my own teaching practice. Over the years, I’ve sporadically kept journals of my teaching. Thinking that there are religious education teachers who might want to read another religious education teacher’s journal, I’ve collected some entries from my journal on this webpage. Included are entries from teaching graded classes, a summer camp/conference, and a small (fewer than 10 children) mixed age class.
