Time Record Procedures for  Internship II

The teacher intern is required to keep a record of time spent in the schools.  University supervisors sign on the date of each visit. The Mentor Teacher and University supervisor will verify the number of days completed for the experience. The signatures of both the mentor teacher and university supervisor on the time record cover page will authenticate this record. The following activities should be documents on the time record.

1. Observation:  Time when the assistant/intern is watching another person who is in charge of activities for the students.  For example, Observed Math lesson – 45 minutes.
2. Non-instructional time: Time when the assistant/intern is not in charge of activities with students.  For example, lunch running copies, checking papers while in school.  The time is described and time recorded.  For example, Lunch – 30 minutes.
3. Teaching time: Time when the assistant/intern is in charge of the classroom, small groups of students, or tutoring individual students.  For example, Teaching circle time – 20 minutes.

Use a number two pencil to record times on the time sheet pages or use the template available on the department web page to create a typed record. Insert a number for each completed day to aid with determining the total number of full days completed in the experience.

The time record cover sheet is a permanent record of the field experience days completed and must have the required signatures. All signatures should be in blue ink. Attach all completed time sheets to the time record cover sheet for submission to the university supervisor at the end of the experience.
