Why I Want to Be a Teacher

SWIS data As I start to review the SWIS data my hope would be that the number of aggressive referrals would start to go down. I would like to see a downward trend in the number of aggressive referrals during recess time. I would build a spread sheet that would show the number of referrals before the structured recess was implemented, then the number of referrals half way through the implementation period, and then the final numbers at the conclusion of the research project. The hope is that…

show up at different points of readiness for reading and math and drawing? Why? Students are more likely to show up at different points of readiness for reading, math, and drawing. All students learn at different levels and not one student learns at the same pace as the other students. If there is only one textbook for the curriculum per student then everyone gets the same learning instruction. However, we as teachers should make sure we know how every student learns new information and teach…

I am going to start out by apologizing because this is going to be long. But I believe everything I say is worthy of saying so I hope you don’t just give up and stop reading. I am a person that doesn’t particularly like school. Something about being stuck in a classroom for seven hours and force fed facts I don’t always want to learn just has me counting down the days till summer. So are there things I would change about the school system? Yes. Is there an aspect I wouldn’t change about the…

I learned a lot from this OIR that will affect my future teaching career expectantly in a good approach. I learned that some children develop slower than others and some develop quicker. Seeing that some children need a little extra help (guidance in interacting with others and understanding/following directions) and some children don’t shows that when I’m a teacher, I’m going to have to accommodate to these children’s needs as much as possible. All children achieve milestones at different times…

causes harm. They create a bad environment for other students or teachers. Should limiting online speech for student be allowed for schools? I think schools should limit students online speech because of the bad environment, cyberbullying, and civil rights law. Cyberbullying is bad and can cause a lot of bad things to a person or to multiple persons. Some evidence to this is that in document B it shows the 12.5% of the teachers that got bullied had to go to the doctor or took sick leave:…

are a number of reasons why I want to pursue a teaching credential at California State University, Long Beach. First, some of the most enjoyable times in my life have occurred when I have been teaching. My first teaching experience was when I was twenty as a camp counselor. It was a camp for junior high school students and I got to teach them in groups and one on one with each student. I was in locum parentis for one week with each group of junior high school students. I took them to each meal…

Many Social Studies teachers feel conflicted in New York State with these new Common Core Standards, C3 Framework, NCSS Standards, and the actual Social Studies Framework. To an outsider I could understand the confusion and disdain for the current state of affairs of the education system. However, as I have gotten closer into the system I have become a better judge of the situation. Therefore, I can proudly announce to the populace to “Keep calm and carry on”. For the situation if one was…

annoying. I think that´s why he always got bullied. I even myself bullied him a bit. He has moved to another school, I believe. Just to make this longer, I´ll make a paragraph or two in my Point of Vision (POV). I might exaggerate some things, sorry.. ¨Lauren! Lauren! Lauren! Lauren!¨ the shrill voice of Xzander was heard by me. ¨What, Xzander? I´m TRYING to do my work, here!¨ I said, in an angered tone. ¨Lauren, wanna talk about Minecraft mods? Or Minecraft cheats?? Ooh, how about the…

“Today students, we will be reading a short story. As we read silently to ourselves, I want us to practice out skills of recognizing the multiple points of view of the characters in the story. In addition, I want us to be able to expand on the concept of being persistent based off the ideas illustrated in the text. Persistence is a character trait that we have been focusing on in our readings recently. It is important as readers to find character traits while reading in order for use to engage…

children with behavioral challenges. Many educators believe that they are disrespectful, out of control and beyond any type of help, (they just want attention). In reality, this is not true, there are ways for us as teachers, administrators, and parents to help these children and learn that sometimes they do not have these behavioral challenges because they want to but because they do not have the skills to deal with everyday challenges and adjustments. These children just see the black and…
