It is also my responsibility to teach them the basic knowledge that our education system requires they learn. Most importantly, it is my responsibility to allow the students to discover who they are as a person and to be comfortable embracing themselves and giving them tools to succeed on that journey.]]> 2020-08-30 18:41:18 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/707429306 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/725675245 is the greatest gift that is given to us in a free country. With everything we experience in the United States, one of the most blessed experience we have in education/teaching/learning. We have the right to read any material we desire to. Unbiased learning is the basis of our free country and should remain that way. Learning empowers and prepares the individual. Leaders who want control fear learning, because learning inspires change and challenges what we thought we previously knew. Learning is so beautiful and is not limited to the classroom. Learning is not sitting in a desk all day. Learning is not limited to time. Learning occurs at every breath that God has given to us. ]]> 2020-09-08 00:43:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/725675245 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/769168691 is such a beautiful tool. Teaching does not just exist in a classroom, similarly to learning. Teaching is guiding another person or a group of people into knowledge about a certain topic. Teaching is the power for real change in personal lives and in collective groups of people. Teaching is an art. Teaching should allow learners to be inspired by new knowledge, and not beat into a ritual or routine. Teaching is structured, but also fluid. Teaching is enlightening. Teaching may look different from person to person when they fuse their teaching tactics to their personality. Teaching is a responsibility that every human must maintain.]]> 2020-09-22 17:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/769168691 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/777202380 give students a quality education so that they can enjoy life to the fullest potential. Schooling is a makeshift society where you can learn and make mistakes so that you can operate in the real world. Schooling is all about learning and education. The higher quality education you receive, the higher chances you are of having a successful life. Schooling is about falling in love learning with learning, unfortunately tests have done the exact opposite. Schooling is to ensure all children are able to eventually get a job or have the life they desire.]]> 2020-09-24 18:46:48 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/777202380 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/842995332 are given every opportunity to succeed. Students naturally have curious minds and want to learn. When homework, algorithms, due dates, tests, and teachers get in the way, this is when students' love for learning dies. They learn best when they are excited about what they learn. They learn best when they are able to relate to what they are learning. It is best when they can see themselves in the lesson that they are being presented. Students learn best when they are in a positive environment and are constantly encouraged to do their best. ]]> 2020-10-19 22:46:35 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/842995332 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/853576890 give them everything that they need to learn properly. As a teacher, I am guiding my students to learn about topics they are unfamiliar with. It is my job to give them multiple ways to learn a topic if they are unable to understand it. It is not my job to give them answers or force information on them. It is my job to present the facts and procedures and help them understand the material. My students will learn best if they explore the material themselves and have me as a guide.]]> 2020-10-22 17:43:52 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/853576890 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/874284925 I believe community/family is the most important aspect of anybody's life. Specifically, family is the building block for your life. Everything that is learned/taught at home is the basis for how students view the world and themselves. This is very important when the student is brought into the classroom because it dictates a lot of what the student does in the classroom. The type of support that is offered from the community/family makes a huge difference in the student as well.]]> 2020-10-29 17:53:49 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/874284925 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/895442741 a key part of creating a great classroom, school, and community. Collaboration is an incredibly strong tools that allows ideas of multiple people to be combined and produce the best results possible. Collaboration benefits all parties who are participating as long as everyone is pulling the correct weight. Collaboration allows for mistakes to be caught that may not have been seen in the first place. It is a strong way to involve yourself with your peers, mentors, and bosses. Collaboration for students is critical that they learn together, instead of ostracized in their desks. It allows for community and communication. It will allow students to enjoy what they are learning. ]]> 2020-11-05 19:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/895442741 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/928055657 being completely and openly aware of who you are and who your students are. Once you have this understanding, you are able to connect with your students appropriately. By being a teacher activist, you are paying attention to real issues that are affecting your students in real time. You do not sit back and allow minority students to fall behind in your classroom. Rather, you are actively creating a classroom environment that allows these students to thrive. Being a teacher activist also includes interacting with other teachers and making sure they are doing the same in their classrooms. ]]> 2020-11-16 16:50:05 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/928055657 amelzey https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/942187131 able to succeed to their highest ability. Every student that walks into my classroom will be able to fully be themselves and embrace who they are. My future students are capable of accomplishing anything that they put their mind to. My future students are bright, smart, intelligent, and hard-working. My future students are not going to be perfect everyday, but I understand that this is the reality of life and reality of classroom managing. My future students are going to be proud of what they can and will accomplish.]]> 2020-11-19 16:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amelzey/bucbg8i87d8ztkqe/wish/942187131
