Incorporating

Most parents these days have no idea what their children’s generation is like. The parents try to eavesdrop and understand the next generation’s style and movement. Parents in other words like to try and stay “in” with their children’s generation! As teachers I feel this is one of the biggest things for teachers to focus on. Teachers are with the children all day and have to engage them in the education, so how do we do that as teachers? Get with the “in” crowd of the students. Some great ways for the teacher to get the children engaged is through technology these days. Technology is the main focus and excitement in children’s lives for this new generation. This six grade class uses the projector, laptops, and music to get them interested and engaged with the criteria lesson of the day. One of my favorite ways to get kids involved and this teachers way is by giving the kids little in class homework assignments to do for a couple minutes and playing songs for the kids to enjoy doing the work. Now to accomplish a task like this as a teacher we must know what kind of music the kids find popular and either relate it to the assignment or use it as an interaction.

There is no I in TEAM!

One of the best statements known is “there is no I in team”. This statement does not just work for the teachers, but also the cafeteria, janitors, principles, secretaries, resource teachers, etc. Being a team for the school takes the WHOLE school to accomplish a task that runs the school. In my experience, as a student and teacher view in a classroom, the biggest thing I always see is teamwork! Students seek out the teachers and other student help to accomplish their education, teachers seek out other teacher and students help to accomplish their career and so forth with the rest of the faculty. As a world we rely on each other. Every person can be an individual, but nobody can accomplish life without another person’s help. The world should establish a main concept of teamwork for any education, career, family, etc.

Like this language arts class, life is like a sentence. You have to be patient, depict, determination, a team, and have an end goal to accomplish the task!
