Because my students are so young, I will make it my responsibility each week to type up their homework assignments for a whole week. Every Monday, each student will be given the assignments for the entire week. By doing it this way, the whole week has already been planned out and parents and students know what to expect ahead of time. I will try my best to be consistent each week. As the year goes on, I can gradually add more work.
The standards were developed to set the criteria of what each student needs to know by subject and grade level. Therefore, the subject matter being taught all year in the classroom must cover the requirements of the standards. Tests are not just questions requiring a factual answer, but require students to use the facts or skills they know to solve problems. Here are some things parents can do to help students develop skills needed to perform better on the tests: DAY OF TESTS • Talk to your child
| Comparison of Discipline Models: Wong’s, Kagan, Kyle, & Scott, & Morrish | GCU:536 | | Ja’Net Smith | 6/19/2012 | | Model | Strengths | Weaknesses | Advantages | Disadvantages | Agree/Disagree | Wong’s Pragmatic Approach:This model focuses on student achievements through classroom procedures and management. | •Specific set of procedures must be taught 1.teacher must explain and show students the procedure 2. teachers allow students to rehearse the procedure with them 3. teachers reinforce the procedure until the students know how to do the procedure ).•Procedures and classroom management should begin as soon as preplanning and continue throughout the first days and for the remainder of the school year | •Students may not grasp all procedures and therefore student teacher relationships are not created•Some needs of the students are vague and more attention is focused on how the teacher can be successful | •Shows how teachers can have control over their classroom from day one regardless of what age group is being taught.•Shows how teachers can obtain order, discipline, management and procedures in the classroom | •Individual student needs are not looked at and unexpected events that could occur in the classroom are not addressed.•Teachers may have problems implementing parts of this model due to student’s different behaviors.•Using this model teachers may find themselves overlooking how to help students develop individual potential skills. | I agree with this model because Charles (2008) states that Wong’s pragmatic approach through procedures shows that student’s achievement is associated with good teacher classroom procedures from the first day of school. | Kagan, Kyle, & Scott Win-Win Discipline:This model looks into ways to meet the needs of students by allowing students and teachers to work together to handle behavior
Justin Beatty College Skills (1) A "self-regulated learner" are people who plan carefully before starting a task, select strategies that are most appropriate for the task, monitor their learning as they progress with the current task, and afterwards evaluate the results of their efforts. Self-regulated learners know what they need to do to successfully complete each task. (2) An "independent learner" takes the initiative for their own learning. During high school, your parents or your teachers often took responsibility for your learning. They often reminded you to complete assignments, study for exams, and if you did not succeed, they felt like it was their fault.
EVALUATING TEACHING - Supporting the teacher in delivering the plan with a child or group of children. - Preparing the resources. PLANNING - Long term (Year Plan) - Medium term (each term or half a term) - Short term (weekly or daily plan) Involvement of a teaching assistant You can bring to the Plan - Resources - Suggestions - Experience - Knowledge of the children Although teachers will have completed long term plans for classes and groups, as a teacher assistant you may be asked to discuss and plan with them activities on a weekly basis. You will be working with the teacher to ensure that the work you are covering fits in with activities and topics planned. If you are not part of the planning you can still speak to the teacher about what will be happening and offer ideas and suggestions of your own.
Summary/ Response Assignment O`Malley, Patrick. “More Learning, More Testing” In “More Testing, More Learning,” Patrick O`Malley suggests that college professors should give tests to the students periodically in order for the students to learn more. Furthermore, more tests or exams will minimize the student’s stress because students will be more familiar with the subjects that are given to them. Like the author says, “If professors gave an additional brief exams at frequent intervals, student would learn more, study more regularly, worry less, and perform better on midterms, finals, and other papers and projects.” (O`Malley, pg. 488).
A. Kurek Adolescent Paper SEC 300 Effects of Peer Pressure on Adolescents Attending school is mandatory in the United States. Adults encourage their children to attend school so they can learn about basic knowledge, the past, present, and future, issues in the world, different ways to perceive the world, and many other things. However, how do the children perceive school? Some attend because they love to learn and gain knowledge each and every day. Others attend because they are told to.
Current Issues Summary and Response Matt 12/12/2010 Intro As a future special education teacher one of my jobs will be to keep up-to-date on current issues in the education field and let my parents know about any helpful development on these current issues. It is important for teachers to keep tabs on new developments that could be useful to better their understanding of education as a whole. There are a plethora of current issues involving special education. These issues range from more controversial to less controversial. Some of the more controversial issues are the use of tests to place students into special education, how should we grade students with special needs and how to discipline a student who is in special education.
I have to work hard every single day to maintain my path to success. I’ve also learned ways to manage my time and I learned to be more independent, not to rely on others and go with my first instinct, instead of others. One of the valuable things to me that I’ve learned this semester is not to worry too much about the future and take things slow and calm as they come. Beginning today, I already have an idea of what goals and what I would like to accomplish next year. One of my goals is to maintain good grades, which means I will be studying more often and putting even more effort into my school work next year.
Current Student Placement: The student’s current teachers from the respective academic areas make recommendations in course placement level for the upcoming school year. They take into account the student’s academic ability and study habits. Teachers consider each student individually, striving to match the student with the course level in which he/she will be both academically challenged and motivated to succeed. Level Changes: A student may request approval for a level change by the end of the 6 week of the first semester and again up to two weeks after the second semester begins. Requests will not be allowed for level changes outside of these times.
