I think this district has most people teach a lesson as part of their interview process. I think it's a good idea, myself. I've often just wanted to invite people into my classroom to watch me teach instead of sitting around a table talking about teaching. It makes sense to me.

To: "Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group" <mosaic@literacyworkshop.org> Date: Friday, June 27, 2008, 7:41 AM Today I am interviewing for a job at a school who has embraced the concept of a balanced literacy program and the ideas presented in Mosaic of Thought!!! The principal with whom I will be interviewing was a literacy strategist before she became a principal. She is bringing in a group of kids and has asked me to teach a comprehension lesson. I AM IN HEAVEN!!!!! I am really excited for this opportunity! When I resigned from my teaching job at the end of this school year (without having another job), I knew I was taking a big risk, but I wanted to teach in a school that really embraces what I value in education. This opportunity has come about in less than a week! My hubby met someone in a grad class who teaches in this district, and she encouraged me to apply. So, last Thursday, I applied online. By Tuesday, I had this interview lined up. It almost seems too good to be true, but I'm going in with confidence, a positive attitude, and lots of prayer!
