As I was reading this, I had to think about a lot of things that I had done nine years ago. I am heading back into the classroom and these questions are excellent for reviewing procedures.

Coincidentally, my supervisor provided me the same set of questions during my student teaching;however, it is always good know that the site we are looking at is current.
