My internship is on a consistent routine working Wednesday and Thursday from 11:30am – 3:30pm each day. I am at 15.5 hours of internship work. I completed an online training unit for bullying prevention called Second Step. This program teaches children how to recognize, respond, and report bullying. This training also provided me with a certificate of completion, which I can add to my personal resume. I have also begun working on an attendance incentive program and the entire school will participate in this program. I have worked with the school administration to learn about State and Federal school attendance policies. I have also researched several attendance incentive programs that other schools use. I will be putting together an article on attendance for the school newsletter and further working with my supervisor to make the finals steps in implementing this program. In addition, I have done some observations on school recess. The school is working towards making recess improvements and my …show more content…
The textbook states that the mission statement generally determines the community served (Kiser, 55). This holds true for Arco Iris, as the community served is the students. The community is the group of students who have the same desire to receive a bilingual education. The school is a state funded charter school. Being a charter school means that families must lottery to get a spot for their child. This unique aspect brings children from all over the city and surrounding areas together into the school community, which is different from just attending the local neighborhood school. The textbook also discusses that at its best, social policy creates a way to prevent human problems (Kiser, p. 62). In the Arco Iris mission statement, this is addressed with the goal of preparing students to be responsible citizens. This goal gives me a better understanding of the schools broader social
The decision as to what the school’s mission statement should be is often defined by the type of school and its outside links. For example, a faith school would more than likely include reference to its church or God. This would be reflected in the school’s practices in the form of daily worship or prayer and visits to its

Understanding a community is essential when planning for instruction. My current placement is at Kofa High School which is a located in an urban community –Yuma, Arizona- with an estimated population of 93,000 people. It is fundamental to recognize that Yuma’s population mostly consists of Hispanic and White people. Although English is mostly spoken in this area, Spanish is commonly heard in the community due to the high Hispanic population.

I am following a family service worker who works with families to reach their individual potential for self-sufficiency.

I believe it is straightforward and direct towards students and faculty members. The school’s mission statement is really an advocate towards students succeeding by with the different objectives. I have been fortunate to have wonderful and understanding professors who care and acknowledge me. I learned multicultural and international perspectives from each of my classes such as values, ethics, and cultural engagement. Overall, CI truly motivate me and challenge me to be vigorous and honest. I understand that the school has dilemmas such as class schedules, and limited parking capacity. However, over the years, I learned that there is no perfect society. Schools will continue to obtain dilemmas, therefore, I strive in taking advantage of the opportunities that the school has to
The school district`s mission statement is: “to fully support all students in their personal development as successful learners and respectful contributors to
In Mark Twain?s novel, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, the main character, Tom, is best friends with Huck. Tom and Huck seem very similar. But of course, everyone has their differences. They both have many freedoms and experiences, which differ. Their friendship means different things to each kid. There is also the factor of experience and intelligence. The boys are similar and different in many ways, but I think that it does not effect their friendship.
Do you ever sit in your seat ever wondering how you don’t have recess in Middle School? I do! I Strongly believe that there should be recess in Middle School because problems can be solved, kids are more focused, and it will reduce stress. Research confirms that recess helps kids solve their own problems and become more social. Additionally kids will be more focus more in school after they have a recess break.
Much has been made of the role of recess at Global Monarch Academy. Yet little has been said about the importance of recess, and why it is needed at Global Monarch Academy. Recess has traditionally been a regular practice in primary school settings, today it is being either reduced or eliminated all together in an effort to provide more instructional time. Research documents that recess affords many physical, cognitive, and social benefits for primary school children. These benefits have a positive effect on classroom behavior and achievement. In the current era of evidence-based practice, it is important to utilize empirical research when making decisions regarding educational policy.
Studies have shown that even though recess is non-instructional time, it serves many important roles in the development of healthy and engaged students. Recess promotes physical activity, problem solving, social interactions, and imagination (Simon
I observed the preschool classroom of Ms. K. Today was a smaller group, as several children are on vacation. This is a new facility and just the host teacher was in there at this time. I came into the classroom at 8:00 and left at 9:00. I spoke with the host teacher before and after the observation for feedback, which I felt was beneficial to both her and me. I observed the children during inside for 20 minutes. I observed the children during outside play for 40 minutes.

The text in the Qur’an and in the Bible share many of the same stories and messages, but they also share many notable differences. In the Qur’an, the prophet Muhammad “received communications directly from God” (858) and every message or story received from God was added to the Qur’an. The messages he received from God were not written down at first, but it was Muhammad’s duty to spread the word received from God verbally to many people. The Qur’an was later put into words during the rule of Abu Bakr. The Bible, however, was written by many different people in many different versions. Like the Qur’an, the Bible depicts many different narratives that are written in third person. The narrator both the Qur’an and in the Bible are God, but spoken
