VI Mentor Activities Checklist (DOC) (PDF)
The Activities Checklist was initially created by an advisory committee of VI teachers in Texas that represents cluster groups of the twenty educational service centers.
The activities are to be completed by the mentor/protégé team during the time of the mentor/protégé relationship. This timeframe includes while the protégé is still involved in taking courses that will lead to VI certification and extends through the protégé’s first year of employment as a VI teacher. As soon as the mentor/protégé team assignment is established, the team members should review this activity checklist and determine a plan to complete the activities.
For each subject area, there are essential activities (marked with an “E”) and several optional activities listed. The mentor and protégé should identify those that would be beneficial for the protégé to complete and see that they are covered during the mentor/protégé assignment.
As each activity is completed, the date of completion should be noted in the box next to the activity. Each team can individually decide who is responsible for keeping the checklist up to date. However, at the end of the formal mentor/protégé assignment (i.e., after the protégé has completed all course work and been employed as a VI teacher for one year), both the mentor and protégé should sign each page and submit the completed checklist to the mentor coordinator at the address listed below.
Please call or email me if you have any questions about the Activities Checklist or anything else about the mentor program.
