"People don't care how much you know, they wanna know how much you care"

Teaching fosters a lifetime of learning, creativity, building new relationships, providing opportunities, and ultimately changing lives. I strive to be a teacher that students remember for the rest of their lives as having a positive influence on their aspiring minds as children. Teaching is a profession that allows for continuous growth and varieties of improvement, both in teaching methods as well as the curriculum. While the education system is constantly evolving, this is a profession that rewards not only children, but also teachers themselves.

As a teacher my goal is to have classroom management skills that reflect a culturally responsive and relevant classroom. This means a safe place where students are open to share and participate, demonstrate appropriate behaviour by myself, students, and other staff, and builds strong and meaningful relationships. I think it is important to stay up to date with varying social justice issues in media and in society as it can influence students in more ways than one. This means engaging in the importance of social emotional learning in the classroom. Social emotional learning means creating a classroom environment that reflects healthy identities and management of emotions through the appropriate incorporation of knowledge, skills, attitudes, goals, and decision making.

I believe it is important to be aware of and acknowledge that there are multiple different ways of learning and teaching. This includes incorporating visual, auditory, verbal, kinesthetic, logical, intrapersonal, and interpersonal activities and lessons into the classroom to cater towards all students and make adaptations when necessary.

As a teacher it is important to keep up to date with social justice issues in our society. The BLAC report and Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada are important factors that come to play in the classroom for Black and Indigenous children. I am up to date with these documents and have provided reflection into how I will make sure to incorporate this into my classroom.

Incorporating Indigenous practices into the classroom. Such as outdoor learning, sharing circles, and winter counts. Here I used the Indigenous practice of creating a winter count story of the social justice issues discussed throughout the Foundations of Education Course.
