It is important that they trust that we will teach them the correct material. However, I believe the author is really stressing that in order to actually benefit our students, and help them grow as individuals, we must create an environment that doesn't leave them out. The classroom environment needs to be accepting of who the students are as people already, and the teachers should also accept them for who they are and where they come from. It should not be a place that discourages this identity, or tries to erase it. Here, the teacher is doing unique, individual handshakes with the students. He shows that he values their culture by allowing them to interact in this friendly greeting. He is also displaying trustworthy behavior. He has the students' backs.]]> 2017-09-07 00:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185346252 aprizalll https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185351305 Reality pedagogy is a teaching and learning style allows the teacher to be aware of the emotional and cultural experiences students may have. Not only to be aware, but allow students to reflect and build on their own experiences. In doing so, not only does the student learn about themselves, but the teacher can get to know them better, and learn more efficient ways to teach that particular student. This style causes students and teachers to work together to learn from one another, and create a trustful classroom space. In this picture, the teacher is on the same eye level with the kids, and interacting in friendly conversation, which shows he is trying to learn things about the students. ]]> 2017-09-07 01:08:35 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185351305 aprizalll https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185368177 This picture was taken of Native American boys at a Carlisle school in PA. These schools were created to educate the indigenous people of American in English language and culture. When people came to America, they compared Native Americans to savages and violent people. They wanted to teach them, and change their ways. Similarly to white teachers in urban schools, unfortunately. The teachers that Emdin speaks of (including himself), all made judgements the first day about students. Based on the way the children talked, behaved and even looked, at the teachers labeled them either "teachable or not"(Emdin, 2016, p. 32).]]> 2017-09-07 02:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185368177 aprizalll https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185371132 2017-09-07 03:21:26 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185371132 aprizalll https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185450866 This quote really makes me sad. It makes me sad that things like this in our society. Children, no matter what their color, should be encouraged to always be themselves. If we raise children from different cultures to think that they're not good enough as they already are, how are they supposed to believe they can achieve anything? ]]> 2017-09-07 11:55:40 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185450866 aprizalll https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185452832 This is very important because, many teachers want to be emotionless when they teach. This is so they can be keep their personal life outside of their classroom, so their students don't see them as vulnerable. However, some of the personal stories and experiences teachers have can really allow students to trust and open up to them. We can not teach like robots and expect a successful, positive classroom environment. Relationships with students are so important! ]]> 2017-09-07 12:04:35 UTC https://padlet.com/aprizalll/spaa0wrtuni3/wish/185452832
