Post: Teaching out of certifcation area and kids taking the TEST

Posted by Kelley on 5/16/08

    This was my second year teaching high school and due to an
    unfortunate set of circumstances, I have been teaching out
    of my certificaton area.

    Last year, I taught freshmen history and this year I
    taught sophomores.

    I teach in NYC and we have regents test, where the
    sophomores (most who have had me both years) have to pass
    a hard test with material from both years.

    The problem is, I have been learning it as I go along and
    I have noticed the holes in the kids knowledge.

    Now I feel like I have to re teach two years in two weeks
    to give these kids half a shot at passing the test.

    What do I do? I already feel horrible about this situation.
