Journal+entry+guidelines

 One of the goals of our program is to raise reflective teachers, and one venue for doing that is writing a journal. It is important that our fellows write them regularly, but we encourage the mentors to do so as well. The goal of this exercise is not to become a burden, but to gather ideas, questions, observations, solutions, etc. These journals are intended to encourage you to reflect on your learning and teaching and will be used in class discussions during which you may be asked to refer to or read from your entries. Journal entries need not be lengthy, but it is expected that you will write often. There are several prompts that you should be keeping in mind as you write, as those are the areas we deem important in our program:
 * 1) mathematical knowledge for teaching
 * 2) equity and accessibility
 * 3) planning and assessment
 * 4) management
