What kind of imagery comes to mind when the word savage its said aloud? What kind of connotation does you think drives this word? Primitive, barbarian, negligent? Because if so, it’s a perfect word that depicts what author Jonathan Kozol, in his book Savage Inequalities: Children in America’s School, is trying to portray about the United States School System. His book opens the eyes of the reader to the worse and best of what schooling in the U.S is.
The teacher should make sure that each student is involved in the lesson, ask process questions, open-ended questions, be patient when waiting for answers to these questions, and ultimately never say anything a kid can say. This method is something that I would like to implement in my future classroom. I know that it will take practice and perseverance, but it is something that I know I can
This makes it the job of the teacher and assistant of each class to make sure that the children
My teacher always assigns difficult homework and quiz each day of class. There were students who do successfully well and there were those who do not. The one who are unsuccessful always cause trouble for the
In every school there are set policies and procedures so that all people working within the school are aware and stick to the same rules. Consistency is imperative. All adults working in the school would be : teaching staff, support staff, lunchtime supervisors, kitchen staff, governors, after school staff and temporary staff. There are many policies in schools that children and staff should be aware of.
The author discusses how letter or number grading affects the students and how it makes them question how well they are doing or what they need to do to improve. This causes stress to the student. The author discusses how students now are obsessed with their grades and not their
I observed at Carl Albert Middle first as my urban placement. Carl Albert Middle School is located in Midwest City, Oklahoma. I observed in Mrs. Moss’s 8th grade English Language Arts classes. The second site I observed at was Guthrie High School in Guthrie, Oklahoma for my rural placement. There I observed in Mrs. Lucas junior and senior English classes.
It was a ferociously gloomy day in the heart of Center City. The time of the observation was from 11:43 am to 12:43pm. Sandwiched between 15th street and John F. Kennedy Boulevard is the Philadelphia 's Municipal Services Building and within the plaza of the building lies Board Game Park. Even in the rain, the park was festive. Upon arriving, it began to drizzle.
This intervention was effective, none of the students wanted to have to be held after the bell so they were started telling each other to be quiet. The teacher continued giving the students the instructions. Just a few minutes in, a student started to whisper to the student next to him. The teacher continued with the instruction, but gave the student “the look.”
Let the grade be whether or not they get everything in on time, in real life you either do it or you don’t, it’s a zero or 100, that’s it. By not giving grades and making students aware of their own deadlines creates that sense of
I observed a 4 years old boy named J.k. who was at the playground during the morning (Monday September 27 at 10:00 a.m.). His class went to the playground to pick some loose leaves from the floor. The teacher gave the instruction to the children “pick up some leaves of different colors and then you can go play”. J.K pretended that he was picking leaves and went close to the slide.
I started doing my field Experience in Lime Kiln Elementary school where I shadowed Mr. Mikalov, a fifth grade teacher, When I first walked into his classroom it was so colorful and full of artworks, student works and inspirational quotes I felt happy walking into his classroom so I would imagine what a fifth grader would feel like. Mr.Mikalov was very generous in showing me around the classroom where they have their group work, reading area on the rug. He showed me the schedule they follow every week, they do math every day from 12:13 to 12:55 and have lunch every day at 11:26- 12:08 and off course I took a picture of it to know when and what they are doing that time. Mr.Mikalov introduced me to the principal who is very nice and welcomed
The teacher reacts with the children to keep them interested and moving. Some of the time the children just likes to sit in the teacher 's lap and not get involved with the other children. One day, Mrs. Lauren sat on the rug during sensory play and two of the children wanted to sit in her lap while the other children wanted to play. Sometimes the children seem to get out of control. Mrs. Lauren always makes sure that she handles the children with love and care.
The classroom that I will be observing is a Preschool classroom at KinderCare Learning Center in Bartlett, Illinois. The teacher I will be observing over the next period of time is Laura Sturgulewski. She has worked at KinderCare for 8 years, mostly in the 2 year-old room until fall of 2013, when she took the lead teaching position of the Preschool classroom. Her classroom mainly has 3 year-olds, but on occasion has a mix of 4 year-olds and transitioning 2 year-olds. The number of students in her class depends on the day, because they are a child care center some students have a part time schedule, unlike an elementary school where children attend every day.
The teacher is also open to listen when the student is questioning his or her idea. All these happening, the students are still able to obey and follow the class rules with appropriate punishments if one breaks it. This type of discipline is the ideal one because it isn’t too strict that the student gets scared
