Chapter 7 Boroson Summary And Analysis
I like how in Chapter 7 Boroson talks about co-teacher. She discusses how both are teachers and that both are equal. Boroson said it well on page 127, “It’s not my students, and her students. It’s our students.” The students will accept both as their teachers. Hidden curriculum is the curriculum that we don’t have guidelines for. They are the everyday things that must be taught to our students with ADS. One of the hidden curriculum in my classroom and school is expected behavior at recess. I have been having issues with some of the students at recess. They have become very physical toward one another. When I talk to them about it, they tell me that it is fine because no one got hurt and they were just playing and not being mean. I have been

    Detracking In Context Beth Rubin Summary

    It shows how the teachers interact with students, and how students react with the teachers. In that meager setting at Oakcity High School with Mr. Bartlett, he doesn’t cater to students needs. He does things in a strict basic formatted setting because “...on any job they get outside of school, there’s going to be a certain formats they must follow to be successful on the job. McDonald’s, there’s a certain way of frying French fries. There’s a certain was of customer service. They have to learn that format”.(pg. 661) He feels as though his students are unable to comprehend those in depth discussions. He teaches basic ideals and principals, then tests students on them. He also feels that all of his students are “somewhat on the same level”(pg. 661). His basic teaching format of “read a section, complete the section handout, take section quiz, repeat daily for five days, take chapter test Friday”(pg. 662) is completely unacceptable and demoralizes students. One student, Monique says “I want to go to college, but... if this is boring here I’m going to be bored in college”. This apathy towards students highly affects them…

    Classroom Observation Summary

    Blue’s class she reminded them of the Bill Nye video that they had watch, and the kids remember lots of things from the video. This was a great way to get the students engaged and to help with a visual representation. She also gave each of them a chance to explain their reason and definitions with the whole class. She kept the students engaged by having them all take turns reading and highlight as they went along. Her role was to present questions for the students, who were to think about the answer and then share with one another. It was a good idea to spilt the students in to partners to discuss. In Mr. G’s he explained that the students had only been giving him work that was about fifty percent effort. He did allow for students to take out there phone and take pictures of the board to make sure they had the information. They also were very good at reading along with him and answering his questions out of the book. I think it was a good idea to get the students more engaged in the learning process, by working in smaller groups together. These are both great examples of their responsibility as a teacher to create good creative and instructive…

    “Not long after ice nine took over, the world became something I did not want to be apart of. H. Lowe Crosby and his wife Hazel died soon after Newt and I met Bokonon. They too did not feel excitement anymore and took their lives together. Frank died from being purely insane because he watched his ant farm for endless hours. I stopped talking to that frenzied man after he mentioned that he would create human-sized ants. Only Bokonon, Newt, and I were left on San Lorenzo, and possibly the entire earth.…

    Gerald Graff Other Voices Other Rooms Analysis

    She states that "I treat everyone the same. But treating people the same is not equal treatment if they are not the same", but she didn’t display that throughout her class experiment(Tannen 349). For example, She broke the classroom into small groups to analyze the reading. The way she divides the class into groups is by “ the degree program they were in, gender, and conversational style (Tannen). That’s not treating everyone the same because she’s making exceptions for students. In that case, yes, she might be helping students get into their comfort zone to talk and learn, but might be hurting other students education. It’s obvious that people shouldn’t have equal treatment if they are not the same ,but people should have the same opportunity. For example, a teacher can’t treat a disable student the same as to an average student, but the teacher can support them with more help to have the same opportunities in class. For another example, a Japanese woman was the biggest talker in the class. Then she was to put into a small group where she didn’t do that well. She was “ overwhelmed by how talkative the female students were in the female-only group”(Tannen 348). Many students have different needs to participate, but a teacher can't satisfy everyone's needs. Treating everyone the same might be easier from a teacher perspective, but student with major needs should get it. That's why there Disabled Students Programs and Services in…

    Cert Ed Assessment Assignment

    Throughout the module TS1301 a trainee teacher experiences a wide range of emotions that change their outlook on the way they teach. These emotions range from the sublime to almost rock bottom, and as with everything in life it is individual and at that moment be it at the top or bottom no one has experienced this feeling before. Throughout the module you are required to observe teachers in their lessons, this gives the trainee teacher a valuable insight into how things should be done, a lesson learnt during an observation was to have a concurrent activity in place for those learners who are easily bored and work quickly. Other aspects of the module include written assignments on various subjects, one of those subjects is the roles and responsibilities of the teacher, in this assignment the trainee teacher researches the vast amount of roles to be undertaken by the trainee teacher and quickly becomes an eye opener into the world of education, the sheer quantity of roles can be overwhelming to some trainees and this is closely followed by the responsibilities that go with these roles. ‘’ Traditionally the role of the teacher has been as purveyor of information’’ (Reece and walker 2003 p3) this is simply no longer the case and the trainee teacher needs to understand the needs of each individual learner, and cater for the group as individuals not as a class. By undertaking this module the trainee teacher should take some of the knowledge and adapt their lessons accordingly, always keeping the emphasis on the learners getting as much out of the session as possible. Unfortunately with emotions running so high it’s inevitable that a clash of personalities will occur at some point, when a student fails an assessment they may become angry and that anger will undoubtedly end up at the trainee teacher’s door, at this point they may even be doubting themselves but it is important that as a trainee teacher they remain calm and objective, but above all…

    TDA2

    It is important that everyone within the school is treated consistently and fairly. When you are fair and consistent with children, the children start to acknowledge the right from wrong and they will start to realise the behaviour isn’t acceptable. To make sure a child understands that inappropriate behaviour isn’t acceptable you must be apply boundaries and rules, the way you respond to inappropriate behaviour must be the same every time that behaviour occurs. If children and young people are given a set of rules and boundaries they start to understand what is accepted in their behaviour wherever they go. This can be at home, school or in society.…

    First of all, it was straightforward on the second page what questions were going to be addressed in this paper, but you have the question, “What does it mean to you personally in relation to your students.” I think that is a great question to tie in a story instead of just have a boring discussion, but I am confused as to if you really answered that question. On the fourth page, Veracles makes the comment about the intentions of teaching, and I think that might be the answer to the question that I was confused about, but if it is, I would make it more clear.…

    Misbehaviors in the classroom can be handled to the lowest possible level by not going overboard or to the extreme. Simply offering students choices or options as to correcting their behavior, and being consistent with the consequences for breaking the classroom rules worked best in a k3-8 classroom. Most k3-8 classrooms that I visited had a system for monitoring student behaviors. I've seen a color code chart; in which push pins were placed in either green for good, yellow for warning, and red for lunch/ or after school detention. If students remains in red for the whole day a one on one conference was done, they got a…

    How Does Recess Affect Children

    Recess gives children the opportunity to learn social skills that are not able to learn in the classroom. Through play, they improve their communication skills, they practice negotiation and cooperation, and they learn how to be part of a team (Murray, & Ramstetter, 2013). For instance, when children invent games to play at recess, they practice listening and communicating as the rules are negotiated and compromised. They ask questions to get clarification about how to play. Once the rules are set, they practice following them. They learn that they have to take turns and work as a team to accomplish their goals. If a conflict arises, they work on resolution skills in order that the game can continue. Many of the social skills that are needed throughout life are practiced out on the playground at recess. As important as all of those skills are, the benefits of recess extend into children’s physical well-being as…

    Education Week 3

    Think of a time when you had difficulty understanding a specific topic or skill while in school. When I was in the third grade I had a hard time understanding how to do my multiplication. I am glad I had a great mom who took the time to teach me step by step how to do it. She sat down with me and explained to me how to do the math and answered any questions that I had. What could the teacher have done to make it more understandable and comprehensible for you? When I was a kid it seemed that the teachers did not take the time to do one on one with the students. How did it make you feel? It made me feel like I was lost and that I was not as smart as the other students. Identify at least one strategy in Chapter 5 that could have been effective in increasing your understanding. I think Guidelines for Cooperative Learning would have been very beneficial to me. If my teacher would have used this strategy I would have gotten the help that I needed. I also would not have had the feeling of being a failure if I were have been grouped up with other kids that shared the responsibility with me.…

    In regards to their teaching philosophies, both believe innately and unequivocally that all children have the ability and a right to learn. Together, they have over 30 years of educational experience and their passion for student learning and achievement is still evident. They surmise teachers are the authorities in the classroom, should be empowered to be creative and have the ability to adapt or change curriculum. However, they also conclude teachers should not supersede administration or affect policy. At the core or foundation of every decision they make is their relationship with Christ. This foundation drives how they interact, communicate and lead others. Therefore transparency, truth, integrity and dignity for all…

    Why Teacher Fails

    Why Teacher Fails

    For ancient time, teachers have played an important role in society. Behind every successful person, there is a teacher. Nowadays, both parents are too busy earning money because of the high living expenses, so the teacher is expected to build a strong moral character and provide emotional support for the students. To achieve this, by the definition of John Lembo who is the author of “Why Teachers Fail,” has four qualities: (1) “he can engage students in an open and trusting relationship by his capacity to listen and accept; (2) he is skilled in the use of different diagnostic, planning, facilitative and evaluative procedure and is knowledgeable about their limitations; (3) he is experimental in his general attitude toward identifying and providing appropriate learning conditions; and (4) he can look at his own beliefs, feeling and behavior openly and can find ways to make them more constructive to himself and others.”(Lembo) Dewey Finn is a substitute teacher after he gets fired from his own band in School of Rock. At the beginning, he accepts the job by pretending to be his best friend Ned Schneebly who is supposed to be the substitute teacher of the prestigious prep school, Horace Green. Finn eventually turns the outstanding students from Horace Green to a group of rockers. The process is adventurous, meaningful and touching. However, He meets the four qualities of a competent teacher which are definite by Lembo. He promises a trustful relationship with his students; he finds out what his students’ talent and does not waste it; he brings rock to the class and teaches his students what they cannot find in a proper pre-school; and he is awareness of his own mistake.…
