All teachers should create a safe environment for their students so they can expand their knowledge and grow comfortably despite of any biases. Students and teachers should be able to openly communicate about biases and inequity which then can promote successful change and justice.]]> 2023-10-13 18:30:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745588904 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745605596 A positive classroom community goes a long way. The effectiveness of it will hold so much power to the students that will help their education tremendously. Classrooms are based on a system of rules and it's imperative that teachers express those rules to their students and hold them accountable for them. Building a foundation of rules inside and outside the classroom will promote positivity and help the students not only with their education, but on a daily basis as well.]]> 2023-10-13 18:49:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745605596 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745612316 When students and teachers have an open understanding with one another, the success rate of the classroom foundation will be high. It can be difficult for teachers to express the hardships of what is going on whether that is inside or outside the classroom. Teachers need to teach and express to students the complexities of biases and inequality throughout the world, in an appropriate way that they'll be able to comprehend. When teachers do teach their students about to hardships then those students can pass their knowledge along to others to build an even more powerful foundation and make a change.]]> 2023-10-13 18:58:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745612316 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745621954 Community helpers such as doctors, nurses, firefighters, and mail carriers are vital to all communities. These helpers are people who you can trust and count on. Community helpers don't necessarily need to have a stable job, they can be people who help out a non-profit organization or serve the homeless. A hard pill to swallow about community helpers is that there not always perfect as they seem. In our textbook, there was a statement about community helpers that stood out above all, it expressed, “Idealize a world where adults justly wield power and students are expected to trust their authority without question” (Rodriguez &Swalwell, 2022). As much as teachers always want to promote positivity for their students, they need to express the ugly truth as well so the students can grow and know the difference between right and wrong. Teachers should take their time when talking about heavy topics and speak with kindness.]]> 2023-10-13 19:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745621954 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745714155 Realization is a key component when it comes to teaching. Teachers should focus on the reality of real experiences and the depth of topics. Teachers should be able to express the roots of topics whether they're simple or complex to promote successful change and positivity. ]]> 2023-10-13 22:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2745714155 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2746994801 After reading chapter 4 and watching the video, I thought more about the way I want to teach my future students. I want to have open communication where students feel they can express their emotions and thoughts to me and believe there will be no judgment. Most importantly, I want them to know the environment that they are in, that they are safe. I never want my student to feel that there is any type of discrimination and any biases. When complex topics come up, I intend to communicate with my student in a positive way that they'll understand. I will hold discussions and small circles to break topics down for them and for them to know I will be there to support them.]]> 2023-10-15 18:56:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2746994801 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2747049894 How do teachers nowadays deal with complex topics and communicating those complexities to their students?

Is it better to talk to the students parents before talking to the students?

What is the best approach when talking to students about discrimination and biases?

What classroom rules are known to be the most effective?]]> 2023-10-15 20:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2747049894 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2747056900 I watched the video Building a Culture of Equity Through Social-Emotional Learning. Dena Simmons spoke about SEL and why it is being taught in the classroom and how teachers are promoting SEL to their students. When I reading the chapter and watching the video, I could see the connection between the two. They both had the same points that they were trying to demonstrate to their targeted audience.  Both in chapter four and in the video, it was obvious that the author and speaker both find SEL more harmful than effective. Both author and speaker seem to want to find a balance in teaching and learning about SEL for the better of students education.]]> 2023-10-15 20:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2747056900 lfraker1 https://padlet.com/lfraker1/potd0uqsh05kjyi3/wish/2747057884 Rodriguez, N. & Swalwell K.
