University Supervisor Resources
Thank you for your willingness to supervise our student teachers this semester. We hope that the experience will be rewarding for both you and the student teacher. In order to provide you with some guidance and background, we have made the following materials available:
Cooperating Teacher and University Supervisor's Handbook
The Cooperating Teacher and University Supervisor's Handbook outlines the role and responsibilities for the student teaching semester. This handbook contains information, suggestions, and activities to facilitate the student teacher, cooperating teacher, and university supervisor triad. Please read this handbook and the Student Teacher Handbook in preparation of the student teaching semester.
Student Teacher’s Handbook
The Student Teacher Handbook outlines the student teacher's role and responsibilities for the student teaching semester. This handbook contains information to facilitate the student teacher’s experience and should be read by the student teacher, cooperating teacher, and university supervisor.
Planning Calendar
This calendar contains noteworthy dates to help you keep your student teachers informed about workshops and meetings; a suggested time line for you to follow for observations; and deadlines for the completion of materials.
Observation Records (Required)
Three different formats are available (Form A (.pdf) (.doc), Form B (.pdf) (.doc), Form C (.pdf) (.docx)). These forms must be completed during the classroom observations of your student teacher and submitted to the Office of Student Services immediately after each observation. A Guide has also been included to assist you in understanding and completing these forms.
Quality Urban Classroom Form
The QUC is an alternate program-approved observation protocol that focuses on student and teacher actions/interactions as well as classroom climate. Supervisors who have completed a QUC training session may use this observation tool for student teaching observations.
Student Teaching Standards Verification Form (Required) (.pdf) (.docx)
This form is a place to record progress toward and eventual verification of satisfying Performance-Based Standards for Colorado Teachers. The US is responsible for maintaining the official copy of the Student Teaching Standards Verification Form. At the Mid-Assignment Assessment/Growth Plan Conference, the supervisor, cooperating teacher, and student teacher collaboratively document progress toward satisfying standards and set growth plan goals; following the Mid-Assignment conference, the supervisor makes copies for the CT, ST, and one for the student teacher’s file. At the Final Conference, the supervisor and student teacher ensure all standards have been satisfied, and then the supervisor submits a completed form to the Office of Student Services. This form is retained in the student teacher’s permanent file.
Final Student Teacher Assessment (Required) (.pdf) (.docx)
The final evaluation should be completed on the final evaluation form and may include a letter of recommendation on school letterhead. Please submit to the Office of Student Services by the 3rd Friday in December (Fall semester) or the 3rd Friday in May (Spring semester).
The Teacher Work Sample Outline and Rubric provides detailed information about preparing your work sample. This form is only used by music education students.
Teacher Work Sample Proficiency Verification Form (Required)
This verification form is completed by the university supervisor and cooperating teacher to show that the student teacher has successfully completed each of the Teacher Work Sample elements. This form is only used by music education students.
Unit Organizer - sample outline that may be helpful in planning units of instruction.
Student Teacher’s In-School Schedule (Required)
Student teachers will use this form to provide you with important information about their teaching day. You can use this to plan your visits. Should a deviation from the schedule occur (e.g. an assembly, teacher inservice day, etc.) the student teacher should inform you of the change .
