One of my earliest inspirations for this career path has been Miss Honey from the movie Matilda. Although I have gotten older, Miss Honey's patience, ability to engage with children, and value of learning are all still skills I value. This movie also demonstrates the importance of empathy in teaching, because what an adult may brush off can stick with a child forever. ]]> 2023-05-01 00:29:33 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573209806 paisleydpatch https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573214414 My dad has inspired my pursuit of educating youth. Since his is also an elementary school teacher, he is able to guide me on my path. Although we have different teaching styles, I am still very grateful to have him a guide. ]]> 2023-05-01 00:35:59 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573214414 paisleydpatch https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573222126 "The best teachers are those who show you where to look but don't tell you what to see."-

This video dives into one of the most vital parts of teaching, which is connection.

Staying organized is vital for teachers, so luckily there are multiple resources for staying organized in the classroom. This is a podcast that I found particularly helpful, and I found some techniques I want to try for my future classroom here. ]]> 2023-05-01 01:20:00 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573244375 paisleydpatch https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573247578 "Great teachers empathize with kids, respect them, and believe that each one has something special that can be built upon." - Ann Lieberman ]]> 2023-05-01 01:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573247578 paisleydpatch https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573253380 Perhaps the best inspiration for my career path is the teachers I had growing up. From them I have been able to see which parts of their teaching I want to recreate and avoid. Through them I see the impact my teachers had on me, and thus the impact I could leave on future students. Empathy, patience, and connection are all aspects I appreciated in my teachers as a student. ]]> 2023-05-01 01:31:09 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573253380 paisleydpatch https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573265620 This video shares the importance of seeing the value and strengths of each student. ]]> 2023-05-01 01:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/paisleydpatch/xgv82h9e2dkh/wish/2573265620
