Dogme language teaching

the opportunity to participate in a third grade classroom over at York Country Day School. The lessons I observed were based off of the new FOSS Module that my teacher was piloting. It was a unique learning experience because it was her first time teaching the material. I felt that we were able to learn and grow from one another as we reflected on components of the lessons. The activities were hands-on and put students in charge of their own learning which is the heart of Inquiry-Based Science. …

Reflecting on Teaching During my time at Connersville Middle School, I feel that I have grown as a teacher. I have enjoyed my experience and feel that I have really grown into a teacher by accepting the responsibilities of a teacher. Each day I cannot wait to get into the classroom and I have gained trust and formed relationships with my students and the staff of the building. After completing my teach week and being in the classroom the past couple of months I now have the anticipation of…

This year I have had the opportunity to work with a teacher at Lowell Elementary to learn about classroom management. I have learned how to manage both positive and negative behaviors while teaching a lesson. My teacher has taught me the importance of positive behavior reinforcement and teaching strategies on how to positively manage a classroom. My teacher manages and controls behaviors through positive reinforcement with punch cards. Every student has a card taped to their desk with ten stars…

When asked what literacy was at the beginning of the semester, I thought it was simply teaching a child to read. Easy, right? I did not realize all that was involved in literacy. Literacy includes reading, writing, vocabulary, fluency, and phonemic awareness. There are also a number of assessments and observations that fall under literacy, all of which are extremely important to effectively teaching literacy to young children. I learned a lot about the different types of assessments this…

Grammar can be a difficult concept to grasp for many. The English language itself is one of the most difficult languages to learn. There are so many rules as well as correct and incorrect ways to write. It is no shock that when teachers teach about grammar they do it in a way that isn 't fun. Simmons mentions that "many students when asked what their least favorite activity in language arts was, would respond with grammar instruction and practice"(pg. 387). She also says that "many teachers…

The trough level are drawn and monitor to make adjustments to medication. Teaching strategies used were writing on the white board and critical thinking scenarios.

Elementary Teacher In my opinion, this was a perfect lesson. Students knew all the procedures (going to the carpet at the start of the lesson, and quietly going to their seats afterwards). The room looked great and conducive to student learning. I really liked how the teacher used technology to keep the students engaged. When I filled out the observation sheet, I was only focusing on what I saw, and all the areas were rated as High in terms of student engagement. I feel that the amount of time…

A teaching philosophy is a self-reflective statement of your beliefs about teaching and learning (https://cei.umn.edu/support-services/tutorials/writing-teaching-philosophy). Every teacher has their own way of teaching, whether it be hands on or they prefer to lecture more. There are six basic teaching philosophies, these include perennialism, essentiaism…
