Recommended: Describe why effective communication is important in the classroom

Standard # 1: Learner Development As a teacher, it is important to help guide students through learning in order for them to feel secure in the classroom and around their classmates. I believe it is very critical for students to feel secure in their classroom environment to achieve successful learning development. For example, if there are a few students in the classroom who require different teaching methods, they will not engage during the lesson if they feel that they are not as smart as everyone else. It is the teacher's responsibility to recognize these students and carter to their needs as a learner; those needs, in my opinion, are centering each lesson around and for kinesthetic, auditory, visual learners, including social-emotional …show more content…

When I say a lot I mean planning for things that you expect to happen during the lesson. For example, having an activity planned in case the students do not understand the textbook work or providing a visual for students who need to see how the lesson can be done.
Standard # 8: Instructional Strategies
Strategies stem from trial and error. If the students do not understand the math lesson without a calculator, try to make a fun activity where there can create their own calculator or act as calculators to make the lesson fun. Having multiple ways to teach the students is key, passing those strategies to the students and teaching them how to help themselves will benefit the teacher and most importantly the student.
Standard # 9: Professional Learning and Ethical Practice This is something I want to continue to practice throughout my entire time as a teacher. From my experience, many teachers have the idea that there is nothing left to learn after they receive certification and a degree. Evaluating your growth and taking in beneficial advice for teaching strategies and personal growth as a teacher, is just as important as helping your students be

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

3). Her twelve principles of needs assessment; safety; sound relationships; sequence and reinforcement; praxis; respect for learners as decision makers; ideas, feelings, and actions; immediacy; clear roles and role development; teamwork and small groups; engagement; and accountability are based on theory that encourages transformative learning. They create a framework for a learning environment that is safe, respectful, empowering, and responsive to maximize learning. These principles, in tandem, engages the learner and makes the educational design comprehensive. They “begin, maintain, and nurture the dialogue” (Vella, 2002, p.

Humans learn by examples more than what they learn by mandate. If our students or apprentices can observe best practices, they will have a guide to incorporate to their own by staying truth to themselves, but copying what they know to be helpful. For that reason, they will be able to self-evaluate their work, and analyze their weaknesses using their results by reflecting on their learning to adapt and try again. Additionally, as Ms. Stewart suggested and I used during my first years of teaching, when the teachers are new to the process of educating students, one method of organizing and helping themselves is to write a script of what they want to say. Consequently, with this method they will track their objectives and come back to re-teach or adapt their strategy after self-evaluating their actions and the

I also think it is important to communicate to children and young people efficiently so that they understand what you are saying to them. Also you should be available to a child or young person when they want to talk to you and should take interest. Asking questions in the classroom is a good way in which to get all the pupils involved and this way when pupils are involved and no one is left out then this will get everyone together and will start to form stronger relationships with one another. Also when you praise a student for their good work then this will make them feel good and will make them want achieve more. Furthermore it is important not to make comparisons between each student because then this will make the child feel like they are less and this will start to cause problems.

I would constantly refer to both the mnemonic device and guided examples as I verbalized the task. Sixth, I would also use modelling and practice to help my student understand the patterns in solving long division, and support his or her confidence in his or he ability to perform and complete the individual steps of long

This standard includes the ability to plan and design instruction, use proper teaching strategies and resources for all students, and create a positive learning environment. Being able to effectively design lessons and follow through on delivery can be the difference in whether concepts are grasped by the classroom. This significantly impacts student learning outcomes and requires the teacher to be skilled in differentiating instruction to meet the needs of each of their students. Without having the ability to properly design and deliver instruction, a teacher will be significantly hindered in their ability to educate all the students in their room and will be unable to properly perform the main function of their job, which is to educate. An educator can follow all the other INTASC standards, be professional and know their content area, but if they cannot properly plan and give instruction to their students, they will essentially be coming into the classroom each day with one hand tied behind their back.

If I see a strategy not working very well, I will look back on it and see if there is a way I can modify it or if I need to find a whole new strategy to include in my classroom to help my students learn. By looking at my classroom management plan, I will make sure to follow it and reflect on it after each month. I will see what part of my plan is working well and what part seems to be struggling. If one area is really struggling, I will have to modify my plan so I can create the best learning environment where students are motivated to learn and enjoy learning. Many classes and students work differently, which is why I will most likely have to modify or change my plan and use different strategies in my classroom as what I use for one class may not work for another class.

Due to the vast array of diversities and cultures in the classroom, I had to maintain an open mind and heart to all students in the 2nd grade classroom. A specific example would be during Black History Month when, though I had little knowledge of many of the subjects being talked about, I acutely listened to each student tell me about their project on their African American role model for the month. Because I did not know a lot of the people they were talking about, each student opened my eyes to a new culture. Each student possessed a unique combination of skills and experiences, which I used to my benefit when helping them with homework one on one. Ohio Standards for the Teaching Profession: Standard 5 2.

Another principle is fostering engagement where instructors encourage students to identify things they are passionate about learning. The next principle is the importance of self-evaluation where educators minimize the implementation of tests and grades and instead allow students to self-evaluate so that they can determine their own progress. The importance of feelings and knowledge is also a key principle as lessons in class should focus on both cognitive and affective factors of students. Finally, a safe learning environment as students need to feel safe mentally, physically, and emotionally to be able to focus on their

Classroom standards, academic language, and classroom discourse would be in my classroom according to my teaching philosophy of all students having an equal learning opportunity. Characteristics in the videos watched that I would like to emulate would be keeping classroom discourse on an academic level. Using appropriate language will help the students and teachers show and have respect for each other. Having clear goals set for each class academically will help lesson planning stay directed to the student’s success. In a video, students gave a speech and then the class did a reflection on how that student did on their speech is something I would like to incorporate into my classroom to help students gain self-confidence and provide classroom discourse.

I am an artist, an athlete, and my best subject is math, so it doesn’t surprise me that my top three multiple intelligence categories are visual spatial, logical mathematical, and interpersonal. I have always learned best in an environment where I can physically see and create a picture or formula that represents the information I am given. These basic inventory quizzes represent my learning style very well. When the quiz said I was a 92% visual spatial learner, it was a very good representation of my learning and artistic style. Being a visual learner, I tend to take a question and turn it into a picture in my head to help my comprehend and recollect the skills that I am being or previously have been taught.

For example, think about when going to get a job. The person needing a job will be taught by being shown what to do, how to react, and how things work (http://tecfa.unige.ch/tecfa/research/CMC/andrea95/node4.html). The people getting a new job dont learn by reading text then answering questions; they learn by hands-on expierence (some places should offer IQ tests but unfortunately they dont). Also heighly effective teaching and learning environments should make the students feel safe and welcome.

After completing the assessment, I was not too surprised. I think the results are right on and describe my learning habits. I seem to be more of a visual. I have always been a visual learner, as I seem to recall something that I visually saw versus something I heard. As when reading chapters I can usually recall where I read it, as my memory tends to be pretty decent for now.

It is my goal to make sure students are not just memorizing facts, but are actually understanding. They should be able to take the lesson and apply it to other areas of their lives. I believe students need to be assessed frequently and routinely. The students need accurate and effective feedback, so they can make any necessary adjustments.
