Blanton Elementary School, my second field experience. There I observed a low-functioning third grade reading class, and was impressed by the control the teacher had over her classroom. She was very organized, and made sure that every single student stayed on task. This could not have been easy, because many of her students were special needs. She had a particularly good method for keeping track of students’ homework assignments. She had folders for each of her students and each folder had a chart attached to it. When a student completed their homework on time, the teacher would sign off on their chart. Students seemed to react well to this, perhaps because it was a visual representation of their accomplishments. There seemed to be a healthy competition between the students to see who could get all their signatures on their homework charts. I really liked this strategy. It was interesting to me, because I plan to teach special needs or low-functioning students, and I think that this could help to become more responsible and …show more content…

When I do need to correct a student, I will attempt to discipline with humor and understanding in a more private way.

The teacher seemed to have crushed the student spirits, and I think that what you say to a student can sometimes hurt

While I was completing my field experience, I was working in the afterschool room every other Tuesday and Thursday. The grades of the twenty-six students ranged from first grade to fourth grade and there were more females than males in this class. My two mentors, Kelly and Brooke, were awesome, showing me how to keep up with these older children while also keeping peace within the chaotic classroom. While these children were from Watkinsville, they really were not from a low SES background, but there were many instances that the children would get into arguments and bring up someone else’s family

It is not the job of the teacher to butt heads with the students. The teacher needs to control their sarcasm and use “positive psychology”. Positive psychology acknowledges a student’s negative skill and creates something positive out of it. For example: if a student is a class clown, the teacher would admire the student by complementing them.

In the classroom there’s a list of words the students will learn throughout the year, every night they would get new words and at the end of the week, they would get quizzed on a set of words.

This helps the students understand the reading much better and this also helps the teacher know the students need help with. There were many students who wouldn’t listen and would just be laughing, getting up without asking and disrupted the class during the lesson they would lose their recess,
