Class 2 Reflection

I really enjoyed tonight's class! First off. I would like to say how much I appreciated the packet full of tools to use in the classroom. They all got me thinking about how many different and exciting teaching methods I can use in my classroom. Also a lot of the methods we discussed tonight were of particular interest to me because I bring home the bacon in a preschool classroom. In our classroom the different levels of the students are so evident that sometimes I find myself shocked at what some students know and how some others have absolutely no roll. For example some of our students can create verbally their label and accept bunco common words. On the other hand some could not change surface begin to tell me what letter their label begins with. Therefore the techniques and methods I learned in today's categorise ordain definately be something I apply to our classroom. Also you mentioned that children hit the books their begining literacy at home with whomever they are close with and It is our jobs as teachers to create on what they have learned/are learning at domiciliate. I teach in a low-income educate govern. Usually low income goes hand in hand with little education. I notice all of the time that the parents of my students are not very literate. They create verbally notes with many simple grammar errors they communicate in slang and do not set a proper example for their children. It is a shame because the parents aren't purposely setting a bad example its just the way they were taught and the environment in which they grew up. As a prove I think my job is more important than ever because most of my students parents are not involved or are not properly educated to back up their children. I am very excited to see the progress my students will alter this year when I use many of the methods I learned in tonight's class!On a align note. I thought the article one of my classmates presented on "Are we failing our geniuses?" was a good article. But. I be with it very much. I evaluate that a genius is a genius no matter what. No one thought Albert Einstein would amount to anything when he was a 'mute' but he did create by mental act the theory of relativity. But without extra help -many special education students will most likely amount to nothing. Also. I would like to know more about the statistical research about displace out rates for geniuses and kids with low IQ.. just because a student has a high IQ doesn't mean they apply themselves or do their homework or enjoy going to educate and learning. I just think their needs to be further research into the drop out rates and the reasons these students dropped out. [ADVERTHERE]Related article:
