I need help with learning more classroom management skills and how to firm without sounding mean or strict.

This seems to be a difference between my classroom teacher and yours. I feel like this would be a nice juxtaposition to observe considering it mostly doesn't ever feel calm in the classroom.

Trying to be firm without sounding mean is a very hard balance to find and it even took me a while to figure out how to do that. I've worked in an early child care center for 4 years now and in the beginning I was quite shy and didn't know how to be firm with the children when I needed to be, but after observing other teachers and seeing how students responded, I finally found that balance. So all in all, I think it will just take time.

It is nice to hear that other colleagues are also experiencing good interactions with students because it is always so fun to hear what they have to say.

Hey Morgan! The teacher I work with does the same thing. We all came later in the year but she has told me about the students who struggled in her class and how much they have improved in her class. Most of the students already know what their schedules are like and the teacher does not have to say anything when they need to transition onto another activity. It is amazing to see how powerful a schedule can be and how independent it makes them in their learning. Thank you for sharing!

I wonder how as an elementary teacher you can change how things are run in the school if it deeply affects how the teacher teaches and how the students learn.

I noticed how my teacher interacts with the students and makes them feel, so that in most cases it can make them feel confident in their learning.

I need help with learning different methods to help younger students do their homework. Overall, how to approach students to allow them to figure stuff out on their own like spelling, reading, and math. Ex, A student asks me to spell something is there a way I can help them figure it out before I can tell them? Or if it’s a word problem how to make them comprehend the question?

I experienced many wonderful interactions between me and lots of different students. I work in a TK classroom, so most of the students I work with are 5 years old and sometimes they just say the funniest things.
-Morgan Fravel

# data[].attributes.body
I need help with feeling like I am having a good experience with the classroom that I am working in. I love working with the students, but in all honesty sometimes it is difficult working with the teacher. It does mostly overall have some good interactions with the students, but it is the not so good interactions with the students that sit with me for a while and make me think. I wish I knew what to do because most days it makes me feel like I don't want to be an elementary teacher.

I wonder if I'm making a positive impact on the students I am in class with and if there's anything I could change.

Hi, Morgan it’s great to hear that you are having fun with tk! I have to agree they do say the funniest things! They are so lovable and playful. I hope you continue to build a stronger relationship with them and to continue watching them grow!

Something I have noticed the week before the students spring break is that so students really do have a lot of emotions they hold in and more of them need trusted adults.
- Kamieya Bynum

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, Kamieya. I also noticed that some students have a lot of things going on in their life than just school. There was this student that told me that she is always tired and she has a lot of things to do even after school and all she wants to do is have a little time to play Roblox with her friends. I can just hear how tired she is. I was happy that I can be someone she can talk to.

The independence of students in the classroom. The classroom I am observing is a third grade class and the teacher has a strong relationship with her students. Therefore, her class usually runs really smoothly because her students have her routine down pretty good! Overall, her classroom has great synergy flow!
-Mariana G.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, Kamieya, I can relate to you so much. In the classroom I’m observing since they are third graders they are independent so sometimes It feels wrong not to do anything but watch them work. Also, I work in a after school program so I ask myself the exact same thing because I’ve come to adore them so much. I think we should just take a deep breath when we are feeling this way and feel confident that we are doing our part well!
-Mariana G.

I have experienced what a safe, comfortable, and engaging class looks like. So, far what I have witnessed in the classroom is the immense support the teacher and students have with one another! I really enjoy the balance between students having fun with one another and having fun academically!

I wonder if the methods for building relationships can be used for any grade? How would building a relationship with a kindergarten look differently compared to building one with a 5th grader?

I wonder how to deal with the students who don't listen to my instructions.

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder how to deal with disputes between some children - such as whether to help them as a judge, whether to let them resolve conflicts between each other, whether to tell the lead teacher and parents about this matter.

I wonder if the reading methods I use to teach the students I am currently working with are working.
-Priscilla

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that one of the students, who usually struggles to find their list of sight words, followed my advice to put a sticky note on the last page he worked on so he could remember where he left off the next day.

Hi Ruoheng, I also have the same issue when I was working in a classroom from before. There were these two students that was having an argument about some work. What I did was just ask both of them to come over to me and we did the problem together. And after that they were both like ohhh and dropped it. I just told the teacher I was working for after what happened.
- Haley

# data[].attributes.body
Hey Ruoheng, it's great to hear you have the chance the experience that. I think it would be very helpful for you in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
That is definitely something that can be a hard issue to figure out how to deal with, especially if the teacher in the classroom might have some different methods than you would.

Hi Polly, What I do when I help student spell out word is to let them break down the word then slowly introduce the sounds for them to spell it out.
