Into The Real Classroom Analysis

It is my sincere hope that every student should look forward to coming into the classroom ready for new adventures and a whole new world of information every day. Education continually brings us new adventures just waiting for us to experience its wonder and possibilities. I believe that students, when presented with a wide variety of interesting lessons, can become interested and motivated in a way that they never have before.

Any student can learn the mere content that is lectured by teachers; however, it takes a truly determined individual- a student who is striving for success- to understand the deeper meaning of the material: the ability to “think critically”. It takes a great level of maturity to apply an education to one’s daily life, which is a characteristic I can truly say that I obtain. To me, balance and discipline are two key factors in life. Whether this is academics, sports, or extracurricular activities, I ensure that I give 100% in everything I do. I know there is a much greater impact on my life when I give every ounce of effort I

So, that exact lesson, not with you or Barry Sanders, but that same BMI lesson is in the Quantway curriculum. So, hopefully, if you do that again, we have a student or two will recognize that and the limitations on that model as well.

As a future educator, I will definitely use tons of technology in my classroom! Technology is growing so rapidly, and it important to make sure students are comfortable using it. For students to be successful outside of school, they need to know how to use technology and communicate effectively online. It is very important to me that I continue to learn more about educational technology tools, so I can incorporate current technologies in my classroom. Continually learning about new technologies is a great way to engage in personal growth. I have learned so much in this class alone about educational technologies from this class alone, and I know there is still so much out there for me to learn about.

My measurements of success are found in each and every student I teach. One of the most rewarding experiences I have had while student teaching, was watching a child’s face light up at the pivotal moment when they grasp a new concept or master a new skill. In fact, those “aha” moments are my motivators which feed my desire to look for better ways to ensure all students experience those same “aha” moments. As an effective teacher, I am determined and dedicatef to the continual process of researching, implementing, collecting and analyzing data to ensure I am improving upon the curriculum, instructional strategies, and assessment used in my classroom. Learning is a never-ending process. The better skilled I become as a teacher, the better the learning experience I can provide for my students. Therefore, the more I actively research, implement, and reflect, the greater the opportunity for giving my students the education they deserve and hopefully, the inspiration to pursue their own lifelong love of learning.

Society expects for students to be able to learn and comprehend any information that is being thrown out. Some students seem naturally enthusiastic about learning, but many need-or expect-their instructors to inspire, challenge, and

To be an outstanding teacher an individual must be well organized. They must plan their lessons and be sure their classroom is organized. Planning out their lessons ahead of time allows them to make adjustments for any setbacks that may occur. A teacher must keep their work organized as well as their classroom. A well organized classroom sets an example for the students. Seeing how neat everything is may encourage them to be organized as well. Imagination is something very important to teaching. It allows a teacher to think outside the box when it comes to lesson planning and teaching. By changing up things it will keep the student engaged in learning and also making teaching more enjoyable. Lastly, a teacher must be dedicated to their work.

Every moment in my life has impacted me and shown me how I should run my classroom. Spending many years struggling in school, no one helping me or trying to figure out what is best for me to get the best education I can showed me what I do not want for my students. This struggle has shown me that every student is different and has a different way of learning. This allows me to learn my students strengths and weaknesses and play on them to help them receive the education they deserve and succeed. Being exposed to so many different people and cultures through travel and attending an international school has allowed me to see how other people live and work and given me insight to other cultures and how to be sensitive to their culture and traditions

There are several factors that influenced my planning and teaching when creating this lesson segment for my fourth grade class. There are several factors that I had to consider about my students by knowing what they are capable of doing and not able to do. In order to consider the academic development of my students I had to take these factors into consideration: out of the 26 students in the class, seven students are English language learners, seven proficient English speakers, and six redesignated English Speakers The majority of these students come from Spanish speaking homes and are reading below grade level. Given the information I have about my students, my choices of instructional strategies, materials, and the sequences of the learning tasks reflect the student’s backgrounds, interests, and needs in various ways. Taking all of these factors

The other major form of communication came from a daily sheet for parents. Each classroom had their own unique daily sheet. The rookie room (where I completed my practicum), had a daily sheet that included what the children had eaten and how much, diapering times and nap time. There was also a space for the teachers to write what the children did that day. A little over halfway through my practicum, I worked with another teacher in jump starting the idea of using a Mobile App for the daily sheets. My last week at the practicum, it was finally being introduced to the last classroom! The parents in my classroom, loved the idea the day it was introduced. They loved the idea of getting updates instantly and even added pictures of their children throughout their workday.

This year I feel like I have done a lot of things well. I have participated in class actively and gave a good contribution to the class. I feel like I have respected my classmates and listened to their opinions. I feel that I am using the skills that I have learned in this class, and using them in my other classes successfully. I use marginal notes in my biology class to help me summarize, or ask questions about what I just read. Now that the year is going on, I am able to comprehend more complex texts. I think that my in-class discussion skills about the texts are what I am really doing well at. When the year first started I struggled with blackboard posts. I didn’t know what to say or what information I was supposed to pull out of the texts.

In education, I have learned that we need to get beneath the surface and create a change in how our curriculum is delivered. We need to provide students an alternate outlook. If we are able to offer more opportunities for students and allow for growth, we can create a stronger system for our learners. Continued growth in this area is needed for student success.

During the course of this class, I have learned a lot about myself and what I need to do to succeed. In my life, I have encountered a few situations that have hindered my success in college, even before I started. After high school I moved quickly to the Houston area to help my mother with my youngest sister. That held back my college start by a few years. Then, I met my future husband, and moved to another state. When we came back home, I went to work to support him with his school. Once he finished, I was finally able to start my college path.
