Furthermore, Delbanco’s views on education agrees with other educational writers, such as Jean Anyon’s, stances. Anyon was professor of educational policy in the Graduate Center of the City University of New York and wrote about the five elementary schools she observed. Anyon argues that education is not equalized, but is differentiated by social class, as she wrote, “The ‘hidden curriculum’ of schoolwork is tacit preparation for relating to the process of production in a particular way...In the…

few things from when I was in elementary school however, one thing that has stayed in my memory is the sudden disappearance of my Spanish class. The class didn’t stop completely but it did become less frequent. Along with Spanish class, my art and gym classes were also becoming less frequent. Later I would find that these were the effects of budget cuts. I’m not sure if these cuts were made more apparent to me because of my mother’s position in my school or if I had noticed them by chance. My…

It was lunch time for me also so I traveled to Juan’s high school to observe him in a recreational setting. I know most of the administrators there, so when I arrived, they had no problem with me helping them out as lunch monitors. Juan sat with a group of boys and the first thing I noticed was they were all Hispanic…

On September 16th, 2015 I went to Chippewa Elementary School in Holtsville, New York. I made an observation at the beginning of the day in Mrs. Carey’s Kindergarten class. The purpose of this observation is to observe and evaluate the human matters of sentiments, behaviors, standards and relationships between teachers and students within the classroom. When I first walk into the classroom it felt dreary due to the whole classroom having dark stained wood paneling on all walls, dark wooden…

presentation about the autism spectrum. Because of this, Dr. Rubio, the dean of the education department at Spring Arbor, decided that he would open up the floor for any students who had questions about the testing required by Spring Arbor University’s (SAU) School of Education (SOE) as well as any questions related to student teaching. With that being said, the organization of the room was quite interesting. Dr. Rubio was near the front of the room and all of the attendees were scattered near…

now beginning to feel as though I am getting an understanding of what it means to be an art teacher and how much more I still have to learn about education as a whole. Educators have the unique opportunity of a new beginning and an ending every school in which we are able to review our work and assess our strengths and weaknesses as teachers. Each year I can see where I have grown and where I must work harder to improve. I believe I have reach a point where I am no longer wet…

Date: I did my small group teaching activity on September 30th. What subject did you teach? For the small group teaching activity, I conducted a literacy group. The literacy group was their leveled reading groups that the students do during their 90 minute read block each day. Usually, the students just read their book and then do a worksheet or reread the book again if they finish. Mrs. Werne usually just monitors and sits with a group. I was glad that I actually was able to conduct my…

they receive from homework and gain more free time? Many jump to the conclusion that abolishing homework is the correct solution to the issue. However, homework is far more useful and effective than many may think. Homework helps students to excel in school, provide an alternate learning option for some students, give feedback to teachers and parents, and teach students life lessons about learning outside of the classroom. Parents and students alike pose many objections…

life seemed hard and I was constantly busy with my studies. After my experience in both Brazil and China, I now think back with an alternate view which makes me feel extremely appreciative to the instruction that I had. The precious years spent in school give basic foundations for a person’s personality and I have many reasons to thank my country, Ireland, for preparing me for the challenges I had to face in my adult life as an international citizen. In this article, I will review the…

confused not knowing what the move entailed. Moving houses meant I had to go to a new school, something I’ve never done before. I’ve been in the same school system my entire life, and was nervous to start a new. Growing up I had a negative connotation associated with change; moving taught me that it is important to make the best of your situation, and not all change is bad. It was a rainy first day of school, I had an uneasy feeling the night prior, , without much sleep. My body felt sluggish,…
