The lessons the workshop taught the children that went through it was invaluable. We hope that we as adults show our children learn from us the mistakes of the past and treat people equally. A lot of times unfortunately people have stigmata’s either put on them by society because of how they look or they put them on themselves and people treat them differently. The lessons that this workshop teaches are lessons that everyone should have. You can spend our entire life trying to instill the…

I think I’ve said it multiple times throughout the course of the semester, through preparing my own lesson plans I have gained a lot of respect for my former teachers and professors. I really had no idea how much time and effort is required preparation for a 40-minute…
I have a memory of sitting in my elementary classroom doodling on a page on my desk and uninterested in what the teacher was teaching. Suddenly I look up from my doodles and realize that the teacher has moved on to a new subject and I have no clue what is happening. Some elementary school teachers move from subject to subject throughout the day and hope that the students are able to jump from subject to subject with the teacher. There is now an instructional method that allows the teacher to…
learned three valuable lessons. The first lesson that I learned was the importance of structure in a classroom. The teacher for a U.S. history class had planned out a lesson that was both interesting and out of the ordinary. However, with this lesson plan the structure of the class had to be changed. Typically the class was structured with the same type of hook every class period. This hook was what the teacher calls “fun facts”, which are interesting facts that the students have to guess the…

My narrative essay is from when I first discovered I wanted to be a teacher and how it came about. It was not a triumph or anything of that sort, it took a struggle for me discover what I wanted to be. It also took the encouragement and help of a highschool teacher that I didn’t even have for class at the time, but he was committed to helping me. My first two years of highschool I didn’t care about grades or what I got as long as my grades were good enough to keep playing sports, everything was…
I had expected to walk in and it be set up more like “daycare” verses a “school” setting. There instead, were a lot of rules and a lot of lesson plans that I wasn’t expecting. I also didn’t expect to be put in a situation that was so uncomfortable for me. I have worked in many different schools and with many different teachers and I have always gotten along and agreed with what they were doing even…
“Life is a series of decisions. It doesn’t simply happen by chance” (Ingle 5). In this paper I will talk about my gifts and abilities, my passions and values, my experiences, my calling, and my personality. I believe that my calling is to become an elementary school teacher. God has combined my passion for kids and my passion for making learning fun into an actual career. I believe teachers are so undervalued because if you really think about it they are the ones that are molding the minds of…
grew older I started to realize how much time and energy teachers put into each and every day. Reading this article reminded again just how much time teachers truly put into their job. As we looked at a day in the life of Jim, it showed how he had to plan out his day so that he would have enough time to get everything done. For example, because he was a coach in the afternoon, he had to come to school early to do his lesson planning and get everything ready for the day. He then had a full day of…
