Working The Crowd

I agree with this statement. Being a first year teacher can be very difficult due to the fact that they want their students to like them instead of showing the students they meant business. If teachers mean business from the very start there should be no reason for the students not to listen.

" You're doing great so far, now try the next time step, keep up the great work"

In my site school there are 3 round tables that are stuck to the ground with 4 computers on each so the only future i would be able to move is the middle table but it is big so I would have to keep it where it is at. For my desk i would put in a corner so I would be able to see all the students without having to turn all different direction.

It all Starts With a Plan

Encouraging Students to Take ActionWhat are the benefits of students researching their own topic? The benefits are most of the students will be more involved in what they are researching. They will apply themselves more and but more thought process into something they care bout instead of something the teacher is forcing them to do.

Skills I Possess

I lack in Self-Management in the classroom for sure. I am not a very organized person which effects me in majorly in the class room. But I can do some things to fix that issue. I can write down a set schedule and make sure I put every paper in the right place. Communication is something I feel like I am good at, I explain every lesson in detail and make sure every student understands it. Self Directed is something also I feel I am good at, I take things on without being asked and complete it without any issue. And the last thing I feel I am good at Social-Awareness & Perspective-Taking, I can feel for my students and even other people and understand what they are going through.
