If all members of the school community are using the same principles and techniques when managing behaviour, it is much more likely that the children will respond in a positive way. The children will know the range of rewards and dispensations, and the order in which they will be used, no matter who is speaking to them about their behaviour. Workforce re-modelling has had an impact on a number of different professionals who are now working in schools. Support staff and midday supervisors, as well as those running extended school provision, should know the importance and impact of consistent methods. It is also important that support staff are given status within the school so that they are respected in the same way as fully qualified teaching
However, before that, parents should be educated first because parents buy the children’s bible and books, have meal together everyday, and have a conversation with their children. Children are heard and learned what their parents do. The children also have the
The power of education beings with a great foundation. I believe that we are all born with an innate drive to learn and every child should have the opportunity to experience the power of education in a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment. For this environment to be successful, I will provide students with the space to express themselves, opportunities to explore their curiosity, and ¬experiences in which they are able to grow as individuals. It is my goal, as an educator, to help students discover and foster their ability to learn and build upon their foundation of knowledge. To achieve these goals, it is important that I first understand the role schools within society, the role of students, my role as an educator, the design of my curriculum/classroom management strategies, and the role of parents within my classroom.
I want students to be able to learn and appreciate the complexity which is our nervous system. I want to foster a passion for all things neuroscience. I want students to conduct research in neuroscience so they can focus on one area and have top universities see their research. Research that they were able to accomplish at a high school without high tech labs or vast resources. I want students to get to places that I could never imagine.
This past year as student-intern I have learned so many new things that will help me become the teacher that I hope to become one day. Not only have I learned things that relate to myself but such things that relate to how my students learn and what might need to be done to help accommodate them and their individual needs. Adolescents are going through an extremely important stage during their lives and as educators we need to provide them with the correct information in order to help succeed. They experience many changes physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. All middle level students are going through the developmental process and they need to have a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere where they can grow intellectually, physically, socially, emotionally, and morally.
Since I have become an Education Major at McNeese State University, I have become very familiar with the Burton College of Education’s Conceptual Framework. Such principles include professionalism, diversity, collaboration, and reflection. As teacher candidates and representatives of McNeese State University, we have always been encouraged to uphold such high standards as these in the field and wherever else we may find ourselves. As I look back to the beginning of my time in the Education program I can see that each one of these principles has made me the future teacher that I will one day be. My goal is to strive in excellence wherever I go and continue to be the lifelong learner using these four components in my own classroom.
The textbook for this course, Infants, Toddlers, and Caregivers, is based on ten principles for child care that are outlined by researcher Magda Gerber in the 1970’s. The ten principles are based on a philosophy of respect. In addition to the ten principles, a caregiver should know the “Three-R’s” for interaction. The Three R’s are respectful, responsive and reciprocal.
Education and volunteerism have always been important to me. My grandmother made it clear that not going to college was not an option. I am a first-generation college graduate in my family. I am grateful for my grandmother because she pushed and installed the importance of having an education. She also pushed me to volunteer as a youth.
I believe it is my job as an educator to not only teach the core curriculum but to teach students to become productive members of our society. The teaching style seen in my classroom will closely resemble the way I am raising my own children. Every moment is a teaching opportunity and every child has the potential to accomplish great things. My goal is for my students to know that they are capable - capable of doing many amazing things I want my students to learn how to think for themselves.
I believe that every child has the potential to be great, although “greatness” can mean many different things to many different people. Nevertheless, I also believe that every student is deserving of an education that gives them the basic tools to achieve their full potential, thus achieving “greatness”. Education as a whole should be both focused on providing individual students with a chance to succeed, as well as being the primary means of preparing the next generation, both academically and socially. For example, encouraging autonomy in the classroom enables students to flourish in situations even beyond school boundaries (Brighouse, part one). In essence, education exists for the purpose of empowering students to be good citizens that
As a future teacher, understanding how a child’s background may influence their capability of learning and how they interact in society was important to me and lead my critical thinking of how to teach and interact with children in a new perspective. Many of the conclusions made by the authors were not really related to actual happenings at the time rather actual happenings played a role in the researchers wanting
Philosophy of Education (a) Identify one idea that you associate with Dewey’s philosophy of education, which you feel can be illustrated by drawing on your own experience of teaching and learning, e.g., the idea of the school as a community, the idea that young children have the trait of plasticity, etc. Explain Dewey’s idea as clearly as you can, using quotes and references to commentators as appropriate. Then give a concrete example of that idea in practice (it should be something that you have observed in a school or college setting); The idea that young children have the trait of plasticity is an idea of Dewey’s that I feel can be illustrated by drawing on my own personal experience of teaching and learning. When talking about plasticity
Lack of parental involvement has an effect with children in early childhood As an educator for young children in the field of early childhood, I’ve always tried to do my best for them. I have given thought as to how I could help make a difference in a child’s education and how could I improve my methods and strategies as a teacher. One of the most difficult challenges as an early childhood educator is figuring out how to better engage parents in their child’s learning. I want to follow and understand how, “lack of parent involvement that has an effect on children in early childhood”. Parental involvement is a critical element of high-quality early care and education (Snow, n.d).
As a teacher, it is my responsibility to share information on the development of the child and have a clear and constant flow of dialogue with the family. This will enable both parties to deal with any issues that may arise within the family, school or community. It also my belief that parents should have an active part in their child’s learning and be able to lend a hand whenever necessary, and having open communication with them will allow this transparency and connection between home and school. The community is vital in ensuring that the facilities around the community and school is appropriate for the different children and families to live in and grow. A very good example of this successful collaboration is the Reggio Emilia approach in Italy.
EFFECTS OF PARENTS AND TEACHERS INTRACTION ON DELOPMENT OF EARLY CHILDHOOD STUDENTS IN MIANWALI 1.1 Introduction: The importance of good parent-teacher relationships has been well documented. Research has shown that parent involvement in education benefits not only the child but also the parents and teachers (Eldridge, 2001). The function of a good parent-teacher relationship is much more than just like a vehicle for status reports from teacher to parents on a child’s performance.
