Annales School

was a good idea to incorporate into the school. By taking the time to invest in each student, the school was able to see major improvement, and she was able to see her students learn more because they were more dedicated to their schoolwork. I also admire her patience with her students. To say that you never had a bad kid takes an extreme amount of patience and willingness to work individual students’ needs. I work at the Y right now with the after-school program and I definitely wish that was…

investigate the teachers question while using their own designs and selected procedures. Guided inquiry is a different way of thinking. Students in elementary school now are taught science a different way than when we were taught. Guided inquiry is a way to offer inquiry, planned, and guided instruction by a team of teachers and a school librarian allowing students to gain a deeper understanding of a subject area curriculum content and information…

individual 's needs with one blanket statement. As Andrew Smarick, a former official of the education department, said, "The department is essential admitting that the federal government doesn’t know what 's best for the vast majority of the nation 's schools."(1)…

still do just in different ways now. I remember when I was clueless about how the world around me worked. I started to notice that I enjoyed being helped and then being able to return the favor to others. It just so happened to be a moment in high school where I found opportunities to that allowed me to work with people. I got told by my art teacher that The Frist Center has possible volunteer opportunities that one can be a part of. I decided that it would be best for me to look into that…

people don’t really understand the transition and the effect it could have on the child at first. It was hard on him. Wind Wolf had mentioned how he wanted to cut off his hair because, “he doesn’t have any friends at school because they make fun of his long hair (78).” He hated school so going through this whole new system was probably the most difficult thing he’s ever had to face. A lot of people are too blind to see it though. Some people might say something like, “It shouldn’t be that hard,…

students neither in public schools or in private schools. Is 3 years enough for teachers to get tenure or should teachers tenure policies be changed so that teachers have to wait a little longer to get tenure so teachers are not just becoming effective teachers until the 3 year waiting period to get tenure. In my opinion I believe that the tenure in teachers should not remain the same as the policy that the teachers have now. In the article “Would Ending Tenure Help Schools?” the author says…

Introduction into this book and videos covers how we need to set long term goals, but before doing so we need to ask ourselves some questions. Before we can set those goals we should seek to know Christ. This can be done by reading the four gospels and seeing what Jesus did, what we can learn from him, and how does it relate to us? Jesus’ last commandment was to go and make disciples, and while principles never change, our methods have to change in order to reach the current generation, and each…

English has never been a strong suit of mine. Why Siena Heights placed me in English 102 will always be a mystery to me. English 102 is a class designed to teach students how to think critically, communicate effectively, and show effective use of technology. This is done through the study of summaries, grammar and sentence mechanics, argumentative practices, and structural development. This course is effective in teaching these objectives due to the clarity of the information presented, the…

Is it considered to be appropriate to teach sexual education in public schools districts? Let’s start off with the definition of sexual education. According to the definition, sexual education is the process of gathering information or forming attitudes and beliefs about sex, relationships and intimacy. With that information being sex, would you really want your child to be learning about these types of things to make them smarter, and make safer decisions, in the coming future? Today, most…

Yazzie personal reflection about the purpose of schools was to teach the students to think wisely and reasonably instead of getting mad. If you do not think reasonably than most likely your work will not be done correctly. Education in general for her was something you learn and receive from others like…
