The seat is assigned at the beginning of the class. But this set up doesn’t give the opportunity of other kind of interaction through the day. I learned the importance of strategically arrange the room to provide igual opportunity to the entire class across gender, ethnicity or language. ]]> 2020-01-24 14:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435622026 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435622618 According to Rudine Sims Bishop (1990) “Books are windows, offering views of the worlds that they may be real or imaginary” . While observing my classroom library I realized that it’s not inclusive. Most of the text are in English and few in Spanish. This made me think the need to make the texts diverse ( different languages, cultures or ethnicities) so my students can identify themselves.]]> 2020-01-24 14:25:11 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435622618 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898591 Make a schedule visible to the students. This will help them to know what to expect. Also students and teachers will learn to be flexible to any changes according with the engagement, interest or pace of the students.  ]]> 2020-01-24 23:24:01 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898591 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898759 The material presented to the children should be diverse. This made me think that all the material presented in my classroom is is one language only. The text or even the songs are all presented only in English. Since the class is composed of children from different ethnicity and backgrounds. It’s vital to present material where they can identify themselves.  This will allow them to not only learn about the world also to interact to share about the new knowledge learned. ]]> 2020-01-24 23:25:09 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898759 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898962 This room is designated for an indoor playground. I noticed that the male gender have the tendency to occupy more of this space by running, jumping or climbing across the room. Limiting the space for the opposite gender. This make me rethink the need to be inclusive with both genders in all the activities throughout the day. ]]> 2020-01-24 23:26:19 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435898962 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435947522 I realized that although the walls are decorated with academic aspects and activities learned in the class. It does not say anything about the students of the classroom. They are almost empty. I reflected how to make those walls a reflection of the students in the classroom.  For example Placing poems, quotes or passages of authors with diverse ethnicities.]]> 2020-01-25 06:16:15 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435947522 antonietabarces https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435990894 https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg]]> 2020-01-25 15:54:26 UTC https://padlet.com/antonietabarces/3lrzs0lk6sfg/wish/435990894
