5. What does this artifact demonstrate about you as a teacher? Link what you found to the
NBPTS Core Propositions?
Proposition 1: Teachers are Committed to Students and Their Learning
Rapsterpiece Theatre is an assignment that I feel steps outside of the box
for learning. It takes something that the student loves, rap music, and
fuses it with my goal of proper English.
Proposition 3: Teachers are Responsible for Managing and Monitoring Student Learning.
This project is all about monitoring and managing. Due to the nature of
the assignment, it is very important that students stay appropriate. After
reflecting on this assignment, I also think this project will be best
performed in groups.
