This lesson demonstrates my development as a teacher not only throughout this semester but also throughout my entire teaching career. This lesson specifically targeted Standard 3: Learning Environments because I had the students working in groups to practice their group work expectations. This ensures a positive, safe…
promote the collaborative process, but continuously support it. Over the course of the past semester, I have observed tremendous amounts of successful collaboration within the school in which I will complete my student teaching experience. Throughout the school day, my cooperating teacher works closely with several other individuals in order to ensure students are successfully supported in learning.…
It is the concern of my group members and I that students from k-12 are not getting the proper support from teachers. The idea that is implemented on teachers is to be supported and to pay attention on each and every student. Teachers are the ones who play a big role on the goals and aspirations every student has for themselves. A teacher’s personality and teaching style can have a deep impact on children’s academic performance and general development. If their teachers demonstrate that their…
First of all I would like to start my paper with detailed information about schools that I had my observation experiences at. I visited three different classrooms in two different schools. First classroom I visited was at Kiser Dayton Public School, preschool classroom with IEP and special education program.

there were a higher interest in being a part of the team I would suggest that we provide an application process for interested teachers. During my teaching experience in Mexico we were asked to join our literacy team as a writing team leader.

All teachers were provided with a clear job description and expectations prior to our application. This allowed for us to reflect and make…

A special education teacher must learn to have various academic goals and instructional methods for students due to the fact that each student was different expectations or outcomes for academic…
And it branches off into two different types of groups, a primary group, and a secondary group. A primary, or task leader, is someone that focuses on accomplishing the groups goals. A primary group is usually a small social group whose members share close, personal, enduring relationships. These groups are marked by members' concern for one another, in shared activities and culture. A secondary, or emotional leader, is someone…
Setting goals are incredibly important if one ever desires to accomplish anything. Therefore, I have set many short-term and long-term goals throughout my life to assist me in reaching my dreams and aspirations. My ultimate long-term goal is to become an architectural engineer in my local community in hopes of making better. However, to do so, I had created my long-term goals in elementary school, short-term goals for secondary school, and short-term goals for college. In elementary school, I…
September of 2014, a teacher who was partaking in the opportunity to Conceal and Carry on school grounds shot herself in the leg. No one was injured except for her, but next time how can we be sure? In today’s society, guns are the center of controversy. If guns are being argued that they shouldn’t be legal in any setting, why would we promote them in an educational setting with the youth and future of America at risk every day? That is why we negate the resolution that teachers should have the…
I started my Instructional observation project and conversation project by having a conversation with my Assistant Principal, Mr. BK Walker. During this conversation we discussed his protocol for observations and what he is looking for while in classrooms. Mr. Walker provided me with the observation form that is used in Wythe County Public schools. He stated that the pre-observation meeting is to get an idea of what will be covered in the lesson for the day. During the observation he said that…
