Part 1: Documenting collaboration
The photos above represent collaboration because these two students from different grades are working together to read a book. The littler girl is a preschooler from one of the classes I worked in, and the older one is a second grader in one of the classes I am working in now. They pair up every week to read.
Part 2: Writing about collaboration
-In the course of one typical workday, how many different people do you directly work with?
In one typical workday I directly work with multiple different people from different departments. At the beginning I only worked with two different teachers, all their students, and my mentor, but now I work with a new pair of teachers, their students, my mentor, the admissions/community relations employee, and the advertising employee.
-How many people are indirectly affected by your work?
I would say that a great amount of indirect people are also affected by my work, like the Warren-Walker alumni, maybe the parents of the students, or even other teachers
-Describe your direct collaboration with others—how does it go & how does it influence the work?
I collaborate with the teachers I work for, and their students the most. I collaborate with the teachers when I help teach lessons because I do not know the expectations they have for their students, or how they are regularly taught a certain concept. In order to teach lessons to the students, and plan when I can teach my own lessons, I have to collaborate with both the teachers and students. I collaborated with the other employees I work for a lot too, when planning the party, Mrs. Fisk and I would put our heads together to come up with great ideas like what music and if there should be bands. This influenced the brainstorming because I would have never thought to actually get real bands from past years at Warren-Walker, and I think it's a cool idea. I hope my ideas influence the work a lot too because I know the age group and what they would want for a party.
Describe your indirect impact on others through your work—there are probably many people you never actually see who are affected by your work. How does this happen? How does this influence your work?

My indurect impact on other would be with planning the teen party, everyone that participates in that event with be affected by my hard party planning. Also, other teachers and maybe even parents of the children I work with will be affected by my work too, because when I teach the lesson on Wednesday they will learn a new way of learning. It will be hands-on learning and hopefully they will learn a little more than before. This could happen if everyone sees the scores improve after learning a lesson NOT from a textbook, they coud start to take on the project based learning experience. This influences my work because I want to do a really great job on Wednesday and prove that project based learning can teach a lot, and hopefully even more.
